Features & Capabilities

The Checkbook 3.0 is a lightweight Chrome extension that serves as a simple transaction register. Track finances in real time, manage multiple accounts, reconcile to the penny, and take advantage of a new Shared Storage option to sync transactions with invited users. No ads, quick entry, type-ahead for common transactions, recurring items, transfers between accounts, and basic reporting help you stay on top of spending. You can customize color themes per account, search quickly, and export data to CSV for offline use.

Security and syncing features include Face ID / Touch ID, optional iCloud Drive storage to keep data across devices, and sharing capabilities with joint account owners via email or Shared Storage (subscription required). Privacy notes clarify that data is not collected from local or iCloud storage, with Shared Storage used only to share data among invited users. The built-in reporting shows spending by category and daily totals to simplify financial review.

User Reviews

The Checkbook is praised for being easy to use and a convenient on-the-go checkbook replacement that shows running balances. However, data loss and unreliable cloud backups are a major concern, and users want more recurring options and cross-account reporting. Minor gaps include per-account currency, account-name length limits, and reporting/chart access. Overall, it's popular for everyday tracking but reliability and feature gaps are repeated concerns.
Pros
  • Easy to use with a simple, straightforward interface.
  • Fast on‑the‑go transaction entry with a running balance.
  • A solid replacement for a paper check register and clear view of spending.
  • Reliable for day-to-day tracking of income and expenses.
  • Responsive, helpful support from the developer when help is needed.
Cons
  • Data loss: transactions repeatedly disappear after updates or during iCloud syncing.
  • Backup/restore failures: iCloud backups often fail to restore properly.
  • Limited recurrence options: no every-4-weeks option and limited look-ahead for recurring entries.
  • Reporting limitations: can't generate cross-account reports; reports often appear only for a single account.

I have been checking out apps that have a budget in them but still have not found any better than this app. I wish you had a budget that would take the amount out of my checks and keep track of spending and add to what’s left the next week

I have searched far and wide for a Checkbook app and have tried many! This is the one! Simple to use with the basic functions you need plus a little more! The only thing I wish is there was a way to “end” Recurring transactions. Then this app would be perfect!!
