Bills Monitor - Bill Reminder Reviews

by Dearestdennis

Installed on my 13 Pro Max. Added 6 bills before BillsMonitor made me watch a video add to have the ability to add more bills. After watching the video ad I get a dialog box that says “You have 1 chance to add 20 bills”. I then add one bill, when I go to add my second it says “You have zero bills remaining”. Watching a video ad is supposed to allow “20 bills” but I’m stuck in this cycle of watching 1 video ad for EVERY BILL AFTER 6. FIX THIS. My girlfriend has BillsMonitor on a 12 Pro Max, has not paid for premium but somehow she can add 176 bills, and gets no video ads after multiple attempts to add more bills.

BillsMonitor has been hard to use and clunky. Setup was difficult and lengthy, and the reminders for upcoming bills are almost useless. The reminders (which is a major reason I need a bill pay app) are one time only, and often don't appear unless I actually open BillsMonitor . Once a bill is paid, finding the payment info and confirmation number is difficult as well.

Some of my bills are variable amounts each month, but BillsMonitor is clunky to use here, too. It does allow you to save just for this bill or for future bills, but sometimes I've found it has changed the PREVIOUS bill to that amount, and now says I still owe for a previous month when that bill was paid in full. Awkward setup.

I continue to use BillsMonitor only until I can find a better one.

Wish there was an option for income and a calendar view. Didn’t realize Autopay meant it would automatically get checked as paid on the due date. I took it to mean the bill would come out of my account without my having to physically pay it... sometimes it doesn’t happen on the exact date so I would like to check those off as paid manually. A pain to fix them all. However, BillsMonitor is still better than most of the others I tried. Grateful I don’t have to link accounts and that it’s ACTUALLY free.

This is a decent app. I use it to track bills I need to pay. I found I couldn’t edit the date if I made a mistake and didn’t notice right away. I would like to see all my upcoming bills on one page with the option to separate by month. The view now makes you change months when you want to see your next month’s bills.
I like that I don’t have to input the decimal when entering amounts.
Is there a way to set a reminder time for all bills instead of setting it with each bill?

I love BillsMonitor , there's just a few things I have to work around which isn't a big deal, however I am not happy with the fact I have to pay for it twice! I have it on my phone but when I need to sit down on a larger screen (like my tablet) I have to pay for the iPad version of BillsMonitor . I'm a little miffed at that since I don't like looking at such a small screen when budget planning.

So I had previously wrote about ads and how many there were but it’s been a couple months since then and I am redoing this to give a four star. Haven’t had any annoying ads like they used to. Great job and thank you for keeping me organized. The only problem I have noticed is that sometimes if I don’t visit BillsMonitor for awhile it won’t alert me of bills due.

BillsMonitor works well for my needs. I use it to make sure i don’t miss a bill and know when it needs to be paid. It took a while to set up but after that is easy to use. Sometimes difficult to understand how to do things as the help section is lacking in useful explanations. Still, for a free app it works well

by 13RedSky

This is a good and reliable free bills app. I use it as a stand-alone (not linked to bank and accounts) way to track my bills. You can set-up recurring bills like utilities to roll-off every month or manually mark them as paid. The limitations of the free version is not being able to add very many bills even if they are recurring, think it’s limited to a 100.

So I really like the way I can add and remove my bills and all of the organization it provides. As I have become more budget conscious and want to avoid missing bills, BillsMonitor becomes more and more helpful. It allows me to add/edit categories which is great! Seeing everything at a glance and scheduling reminders makes this so easy for a quick reference! I highly recommend.

by SoooStuck

I love this. It simply lets me keep track of my bills. It’s really easy to use. I didn’t like all those other apps that wanted me to add all my accounts information and bank information. I can just see what’s due and when with BillsMonitor. They do ask for account number on one part but I was able to just override that by inserting random numbers. Thank you so much I really appreciate the simplicity of BillsMonitor

by BestimusMucho

I just got BillsMonitor about an hour ago I’m already very satisfied. Simple to use for keeping track of due dates and payments and only some basic information is required for each bill. (No account numbers needed). Although, you can put in all the info for each account if you want. There were so many apps to choose from and this is the first I’ve tried but it will keep track of everything I need it to.

Love BillsMonitor and it had done wonders for me paying bills on time and having an snapshot of how my bills are for that month!

However, I do not like the fact there is an advertisement planted right in the string with my bills and NO “X” Mark to close it. I’m afraid I’ll accidentally click it and get spammed for the “100th” time from many ads! Otherwise this is a great app!

by Rhap Star

App is very clean and easy to use. They limit the free version to 500 bills, so to get the hang of it I made each bill only last a years time. One suggestion I would have would be to integrate a section that lets you know what bills are due within a certain time frame (3day, 5days, 1 week) and then have BillsMonitor display a notification once the bill falls in that range. Sometimes it’s hard to remember to constantly check BillsMonitor for what’s due. Other than that, great app that serves its purpose.

Starting a new life, on my own. BillsMonitor helps me keep track of money I’m spending and when bills are due and how much. Once all of the information is plugged in I get reminders and am aware how much money I am spending, and where. I’ve rid myself of unused subscriptions, and monitor last months payments to the next months payments. BillsMonitor is keeping me honest, so that I am paying only for the things I truly want, and I quickly catch when I’ve been over charged, or heading toward spending more than I should. It’s all in one place.

by Tweedleditz

I love the simplistic nature, but yet can do complex bill reminders. All I need is a place to list my bills where I can see what I haven’t paid yet and this does that. Does have ads in the free version which pop up on opening, which is only slightly annoying when popping in and out during a bill paying session. Only improvement I would want to make is recurring bills that hit their end date would be highlighted so I could push the date out further. Right now I compare to the previous month for the number of bills.

by Jnchok

Very easy and intuitive way to add and show the bills. After using BillMinder for years and since BillsMonitor stop working, I’m been trying to look soooo many others app for track bills and this is the one that I can said is my go to.

I for one was always late paying and keeping up with my bills, and going paperless it got even worse all the late fees, now all my bills get paid in time I don't have to keep reminding myself what's due the bill reminder does it for me thanks so much for BillsMonitor, I did try others but this was the one for me

by Jjayyo

If you like reminders of when bills are due or like to budget in advance BillsMonitor does just that. You will never be late on a bill and you can adjust setting to remind you months into the future. You can also repeat bills monthly or yearly. I highly recommend BillsMonitor i will never get a late fee again.

by GQDefcon

Very well put together I’ve tried just about every program out there nothing is more simply put better directed implemented in a more concise way which everybody can use very good programming skills on this one I like the layout in the way you did it great program thank you very much you do an unbelievable job and I have a good taste and I’ve seen them all

by Scanman18

Been using this for years and absolutely love the new look! Makes it much easier!

And to everyone saying that it asks for your account info, you don’t have to put any numbers in. You can bypass that. You just gotta put what kind of account it is.

I’ve NEVER put any account numbers in and it works flawlessly without them.

I went through about 5 other apps before finally getting to this one and instantly fell in love. The others only let you add one or two bills but this one I have added 8, all for free! And unlike Mint, you don't have to create a login. I haven't set up any of my bank accounts or any personal info because I only needed an app to keep track of when my bills are due and when I pay them. I recently thought I was up to date on my bills when, in fact, I was behind two months on one. I like that you can set reminders for different times in advance and it keeps you in the know how many days late or days until your next payment. So far BillsMonitor is wonderful!!

by Jgm123

I am the WORST at keeping track of bills. This is simple, clean and doesn't have passive aggressive reminders (Mint😒) you can repeat your bills for every month and then just update the amount due each time you get a new bill. PLUS it actually makes it kind of fun and fulfilling to check off each bill. 100 STARS

by Lovelee2004

I love BillsMonitor. I have been using the paid version for years now and I love that I can see what bills are due. My biggest wish for BillsMonitor is that I can add another person's bills to it, but keep there bills and my bills separate. I pay my mom's bills and I had to download another app to keep track of her bills. I don't like the other app very much. Please think about doing something like this.

by Canns89

BillsMonitor is my absolute favorite. The ads are a little tedious, but it’s free! Being able to look at how much I need to set aside BEFORE it’s due keeps me from overspending - and seeing the due dates makes sure I never miss payments. Highly recommend!

I am in love with BillsMonitor. I am so unorganized and forget what bills are due when. BillsMonitor has fixed that. I can budget accordingly and can see what will come out of each check so I know what will be left over. I highly recommend BillsMonitor.
