Sweet Spot

What I like best: Seamless sync—iCloud calendar and iPhone/MacBook.

This tool really hits a sweet spot for me. I had recently compiled all of my recurring payments in Excel. My eventual plan was to master whatever functionality was in Quicken Premier—as I’d already shelled out for it—as well as create individual alerts in Apple Calendar. Of course, the busier you are, the more you need reminders, but the less time you have to set them all up. I discovered Chronicle at the perfect time. I loaded all my recurring payments with their specific dates, and everything synced up immediately.

While avoiding late fees and delinquency marks are essential basics, Chronicle is still indispensible at the next level: building your credit and stockpiling rewards points. I autopay as much as I can through credit cards, but I clear my balance more than once a month to keep my percent utilization low. With different bills on different schedules, Chronicle helps me anticipate my spending at any point in the month. This app is absolutely worth it!

One more thing: I had an issue (my fault) where I wrote to the support address and got an instant, correct response. On top of being a great app, the support staff is on point, too.
