cloud sync
I love the app and have paid for the upgrade to gold for the cloud sync and password features...loved Easymoney and was a paid user since it's release. I am having a problem with the cloud sync feature. Everytime i enable the cloud sync it prompts me to log into my dropbox, then it says creating database, please wait. This runs for about 30 seconds or so then says "database creation failed". I have been trying to get this feature to work for a few days now. I've tried over wi-fi, tried over data, confirmed i have the correct information for my dropbox login and finally, i have confirmed that i have way more than enough space available on dropbox. I have sent support emails to handy apps via the website as well as the link in the help section of the app. No one is responding to my request for help. I need to get this feature working and if it's something that is bugged and not working please fix...I don't mind donating and paying for apps and such, however i do expect features that i am paying or donating for to actually work. Has anyone else had a problem or can someone help me figure out why it is not working for me
Thank you

Update, as of an email this morning from support.. Handy-apps found the sync issue and resolved it with a workaround and added an archive feature. Thank you. Love the app, sync is now working and the file size both active and backups has been greatly reduced in size.. Awesome job and app

I like the look and functionality, but is the app only meant to work in Landscape orientation?
As on my Note 2014, I can't get Portrait to workat all.

Hi John,
Sorry for the delay and thank you for trying out Expense IQ! Most of our functions are available by swiping from the left edge of a phone or on the left side of a tablet. Items such as Accounts, Budgets, Transactions and more can be added by tapping on the + icon in the individual screens. To modify those items, tap on them.
If you require assistance to understand a specific part of the app, feel free to email us at support@handy-apps.com and we will help you sort that out.
Hi acidsurfr,
Great to hear that! Thank you for letting us know. Your support is greatly appreciated
Hi Freakstyler,
Yes, Expense IQ currently only works in the landscape orientation for tablets.
Hi kuszo, thanks for the interest in Expense IQ!
The app allows import of CSV and QIF files. If Money Lover can export your current data to either format, we may be able to have your data transferred to Expense IQ. Email us at support@handy-apps.com so we can assist you further.
Hello Limac,
The auto backup are saved to the internal storage. If you wish to move it to the external storage, you will need to use a file manager app and copy the entire Expense IQ's folder over.
Bill Reminder
I've been an Easy Money customer for some time now, and now with Expense IQ. My only issue, that Im not sure if there's a solution is I can't see a list of all bills that are in my bill reminder? And for example today is the 11th. I want to pay my mortgage which isn't due until the 1st, but there aren't any bills listed on the reminder screen. Because the date is too far out I think? I remember on Easy Money you could see all of the bills and the unpaid bills list could be refreshed so you could see next months bills. Thanks.

Any tips for importing from this app?
since i can't post links yet and can't find my old account hopefully you can figure out which app i mean...
it's 'checkbook' from digital life solutions.
If you search google play you can find the app easily.
I exported in CSV and moved the columns around and renamed them like the example on your site but when i do import CSV and hit import, nothing happens. No indication that it failed or succeeded and no data is in the app.
Thanks

Hello jokesonme,
You can adjust the settings to create repeating bill reminders in advance. This settings is listed under Settings > Display Settings > Create Repeating Bills Reminders X Days in Advance. The created reminders will not disappear if you change from a longer days period to a shorter one.
Hello scottcc, perhaps you will like to email us directly at support@handy-apps.com so we can assist you further? Do let us know if there was an existing account in the app to import the CSV file into as well.
I am still lost. I have changed from 0 days to 90 days and it stays the same, showing 0 bills and reminders. When does it re-populate or research for bills? As soon as you change that option? And you said change it to a shorter day period. If I set it to 30 days in advance wouldn't it create bill reminders for the next month? And 60 days would create bill reminders for the next two months? Either way no matter what option I pick the reminders aren't automatically created. So wondering how I get them to reappear. And what option is best to show bill reminders for say two months, so I can always pay a month forward. Thank you.
Seems like a good app but there are some annoyances compared to other apps i've used that might make me decide to stop using this one.
On the view transactions window, you can't control the sorting that i can find. Having the newest on the bottom is just weird and backwards to me. I know check registers are like that, but i'd rather see the newest on top. How about the option to sort?
when i type in a cash amount why do i have to type in the decimal point? It's an extra annoying keystroke. Other apps auto place the point.
is there an option to set cleared/uncleared etc? I don't use this and would just like it to be cleared by default.

I have one budget defined as a All BGN accounts and on All categories.
Why is the budget calculated as a sum of the Net cash flow and the amount of the defined budget? The result is an amount which is wrongly displayed as Surplus without actually having the money.
Could you guys check this? I also wrote a few emails directly to support but no answer for weeks……....

Hi! There are some radical changes from EasyMoney to Expense IQ so there isn't a quick solution to that. However, it is possible via some manual file movements on your device. Other than the photos, you can transfer the transactions too.Here's how you can do that.
1. Install Expense IQ.
2. Launch EasyMoney, and go to Database Tools.
3. Select Export CSV and export each individual account you have. These will be exported to sdcard0/EasyMoney/csv_output folder. Copy all the files there.
4. Paste copied files to sdcard0/ExpenseIQ/csv_input.
5. Copy sdcard0/EasyMoney/photos. Then paste the folder to sdcard0/ExpenseIQ/photos and allow file overwrite.
5. Launch Expense IQ and recreate all your accounts.
6. Proceed to Import CSV, select an account and a specific CSV file to import. Make sure all formats are similar.
7. Wait for the import and the import successful message.
8. Go to accounts and check that the transactions have been imported.
Once the first import works, please continue for all other accounts. Do note that budgets and bill reminders have to be recreated manually.

Great to hear that! We may look into other cloud sync options in future updates. As of now, Expense IQ's Dropbox sync utilises a function called Datastore by Dropbox. Datastore is some sort of Database in the Dropbox and is owned by the user only (privacy wise secure) so it won’t appear in a folder. This provide faster synchronization than conventional file saving of an entire database. Let us know if you want the link to log in and view your data, we will drop you a PM1
Thanks for your various feedback Banko6!
1 and 3. Noted! We will look into these when designing future updates.
2. This has since been added to v1.0.4_21. Do update Expense IQ when there is an update available.
4. The + sign must be tapped to ensure that the specific category is added. We won't know whether you'd accidentally type something in the last row or genuinely wanted that last category but didn't add it when saving the entire transaction. If it was an accident, additional action on your part is needed to edit and re-save that transaction again. Thus, we decided to stop that additional action by making that + sign compulsory when adding a category in the first place.
We appreciate your feedback in helping us improve on Expense IQ!
