Hi all!

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good checkbook application? I have become a little to lax with balancing my checkbook lately. I think if I had something on my phone, I'd be a little more active with recording my debit transactions.

Thanks!

I second this question.

Gerald, I am looking for app suggestions from people who have actually used the apps. I searched before posting and found many, many options.

I've been using ClearCheckbook since I installed it on my Palm Pre. It's great, in concept. It works on iOS, Android, webOS, and on the web. However, it doesn't work offline well. I've been looking for something to replace it, but I haven't found anything yet.

I've begrudgingly switched to Mint. It's annoying that you there is no easy, concise way to reconcile your account. Also, there's a problem with my bank where today's balance gets pulled, but today's transactions do not get pulled. So, my remaining balance is often off by hundreds of dollars.

splash money? does it cost anything?

Have you simply thought to see if your bank has a Mobile banking App like I have Bank Of America and almost all banking apps have this feature and then some including taking a shot at a check and make a deposit, transfer money, Pay bills and much more. Give it a try and see if that will work for you, i use mine all the time and never have to go to the bank anymore. Good luck with your search and welcome to iMore.

My bank has a mobile app, but it is horrible. It's basically nothing but a web wrapper. Also, you really can't manage a checkbook in a bank app. It seems like nobody keeps a checkbook register anymore.

Have you looked at Bank Account? I am thinking of trying it myself. It's 99 cents.

Nope. Nobody really uses a checkbook register anymore. I don't know if you have a Mac or PC, but if a Mac there is a Quicken-type of program called iBank that has a companion iOS app. The iOS app has the ability to enter transactions (sort of like a checkbook register) that can then be synced back with the iBank on your Mac.

I use a written checkbook register along with my banking app and Quicken and these 3 items for the desktop, Portable for my Phone and written out on the register. Works for me.

I've been dabbling with this one and it seems pretty good so far.

If you're looking for a simple checkbook app, I just submitted one to the app store last week. It's called Balance and it's free!

I'm using a new app called checkbook in IOS8. It's free. My original checkbook plus refused to work and I lost everything
