Do I have to use Bank Sync and Open Banking if I want to use MoneyFormula?
NO - Bank Sync and Open Banking are completely optional and a personal choice. You can use file imports or manual entry if you don't want to sync to your bank automatically.
If you start manually adding accounts, then decide you want to use Bank Sync and Open Banking at a later time, no problem, you can simply link the accounts you have already created via the Bank Sync screens and they will automatically sync going forward, while keeping all your existing history.

Does this personal budget app work on all devices including iPhone, Android, iPad, Tablet, Laptop, Desktop, iOS, Mac OS X and Windows?
YES - The MoneyFormula App is
designed to work on all modern devices (mobile, tablet, laptop and desktop) and will automatically scale depending on your screen size; so apart from a couple of slight layout changes (menu bottom or side, etc.)
you get the same full version no matter what device you use.
Download the native iOS app from the App Store or the Android app from Google Play, or use the browser version on any device from mobile to laptop or desktop (Mac, Windows or Linux)
This is great because
you don't have to use a "web" version for some personal budget tasks and the "mobile" version for other personal finance things; the same app means
you can do everything from any device.
You can also
access your personal finance data 24/7 from multiple devices as you move throughout your day (e.g. laptop at home, mobile while out and about, desktop at work, tablet at home, etc.) and the app will share the same data between all your devices so
if you update your personal finance data on one it is available on the others. Show less

What are others saying?
Here is a sample from the HomeMoneyManager Google reviews page. Thank you everyone for the five star reviews and for the kind words. Much appreciated!
I have been using this software for two types of loan accounts; a standard variable mortgage loan and a fixed interest loan. It works perfectly for both loan types and it is easy to use as well as accurate and reliable. I also like to say that the support provided to answer questions was fantastic. Matthew was very helpful and thorough. I am so grateful for his amazing extra help.
I am using Home Money Manager for over 10 years (lost track really) Its an easy to use program and help me keep track of my accounts.
... I can keep right on top of where my money's being spent. I'd be lost without it. I run the software on a MacBookPro and it has been very reliable. On the rare occasion when I've had to contact the support team for some advice, they have been very prompt and helpful. I would definitely recommend you check them out.
