The app does make keeping track of chores and allowances very easy and is easy to use, and the kids love having their own card. However the month free trial is actually 5 days, and after the first load even though it has an option to load 5 10 15 or $20 you cannot load less than $20. I wasn't very happy with the surprise ending of the free trial and I'm also confused why it gives me an option to load lower amounts when you're not allowed to.

Thank you for sharing this with us, Jacquie. When you sign up for Greenlight, you can try any of our plans risk-free for one month and load as little as $1 if you link a bank account. We are always working to improve our Greenlight experience and will pass your feedback along to the team. A Greenlight team member will be in touch with you shortly.

One can't even change your address via the app, need to call them, and jump through all the automated hoops and even then it is straightforward. If this is so hard, then opening an account at major banks does not seem so bad in comparison. The app feels flaky, because of this and other issues.

I'd give it 5 stars if it had a recurring jobs function and even minimal sorting (alphabetical etc) of the jobs so you don't have to scroll through the entire list every time you're trying to find one. As it stands, you have to manually reenter a job every time one is completed. This is a popular request on the feedback site for the app and greenlight claims it is in progress, but it's been over a year with nothing to show for it.
