The best way to save!

I stumbled across this app because I needed to save for a trip and oh my god! This app is amazing! Out of sight out of mind! I love how it notifies me what my checking balance is and how simple it is to navigate!

fav app

Im in love with this app. Its been three days and I almost have $6 which isnt much but its more than Id have if I hadnt gotten the app. I almost feel like its free money because Digit saves such little amounts here and there, that I dont even notice. I get so excited to check it each day lol.

Love it!!

I dont normally review apps, but I love this one! I am one of those who always *wants* to save money, but it never happens. I transfer to my savings account, but its so easy to transfer right back into my checking. So this app is perfect for me, given that it keeps the savings tucked away and Im less apt to transfer it. In one month Ive saved $209, with the option to add "more" and save more. Digit takes anywhere from small amounts to the biggest one that Ive seen being $25, daily. The larger amounts are less frequent, though. Note::this app is NOT for someone who is very particular about keeping a checking log or registry, you wont be able to keep up with the small amounts coming out. I just log into my online banking, and thats about the extent of how I track my balances. If I stay on the current track of savings, Im looking forward to having about $800 extra put back for Christmas shopping :)

Quietly saved $200 in my first 2 month

Digit is the best thing Ive ever done for my finances. It saved $200 over the last 2 months without me even noticing (I have the regular, not the aggressive plan)! The best part is that Digit is simple, and automated. Plus, I look forward to my daily balance texts. Sometimes they even include GIFs... I love you, Digit!! ❤️

Great app, and great team

App will save you money while the team behind will make sure everything runs smoothly. Dont be afraid to ask them for help! Theyll be more than happy to help.

(Used to) Love this app! *edited*

Editing this because im disappointed with the lack of customization! The idea of saving a few dollars here and there is what drew me to this app, but its recently been saving $50+ multiple days in a row. Thats too much for me!! There needs to either be a cap on how much can be saved (im allegedly at the "lowest" setting right now) or a frequency option. Love it and I dont want to delete!! Please fix this. Saving money is hard, digit makes it so easy! I try to save money on my own but the fact that this is automatic makes it so much easier. Love love love it

Cant login and takes my money for no reason

The app automatically logged me out of the application. No matter what I do I cannot log back in and the forgot password link does not work either. Also the app puts your money in savings but with no rhyme or reason. I want to tell t to stop but there is no way to do that. It takes my money but wont tell me why or for what amount. I am very unhappy with how this app is performing and want my money back.

Awesome app

My family has a problem with "nickel and diming" until all of a sudden, were out $100 or more. This app "nickel and dimes" for us and puts that spare change into savings instead of into useless garbage we definitely dont really need. Just like the useless crap, we dont even notice that its missing for the things we need. The more money we see going toward useless crap, the more aggressive we increase the app to be with our savings! I was a little wary letting a third party access my bank account, but one thats backed by Wells-Fargo and the FDIC, I can get on board with that. I contacted WF specifically to see what they had to say about it.

Outstanding

Easily one of my favorite apps I have ever had. Saves money without you ever noticing, and can check back to find a nice chunk of change that can then be withdrawn whenever you want it. An excellent way to save money, the app interface is smooth and the customer service was phenomenal one the occasion I had to use it. Highly recommend!

Brilliant!

Love this app! I think its sheer brilliance!

Give me my money back

The concept of digit is good but I havent been able to get my money back, its been a week since I have done the "withdraw" and nothing has came back into my account..

Fantastic

This app is really efficient with simple commands to do things like see recent transactions, withdraw, etc. The best things to me are 1. It alerts me every morning telling me how much money I have in the connected account, which forces me to see how much I have spent over the past day. 2. It takes about 48 hours to process a withdrawal which means I cant just randomly take money out of it to buy things on a whim, which is something I tend to do with my regular savings account. Its cute and easy to use and very beneficial if youre learning how to save money!

Great way to save money

I have been using Digit for almost 4 months now and in that time it has saved me $160 without me even noticing. Its a great way to save without trying. After three months I started getting bonuses for keeping my money in the account. Its not much just a few cents but its a nice little addition. Ive always been good at keeping money in my savings account but I never find extra money to add to my savings account. Digit does a great job of finding the money to save for me.

Excellent because it gives you total control

You can pause, set minimum checking account limits for saving, save more, etc., and do other things. It feels like the right balance between simplicity and power (feature set). And, of course, it makes saving easy and automatic. For someone like me, its a welcome addition to my life.

Wont boot.

I heard about this app on TWIT. I downloaded it and it wont start up. Keeps crashing on iPhone 6 Plus. Ive deleted it and reinstalled. It wont startup.

Stop being skeptical!

I have to admit that I am the biggest skeptic ever but I have to give credit where it is due...this app is amazing. Ive only been using for 1week and they have managed to find ways to help save me money that I dont even miss. Great app!

Does exactly what it says

$65 saved in the first month without even thinking about it! Easy setup and authentication with my bank. Love the daily texts about whats happening in my checking account - you can turn those off. Wish I had found this sooner!

Mindless Saving

Makes saving so easy. The small amounts pulled out dont affect my account balance and I saved up a lot fast! Also, out of sight, out of mind; so I dont feel the need to spend whats being saved.

Great so far

Except the minor annoyances to the app. So far its great when my bank app not working or some reason the bank limits access to their app I can see what my balance is though this app and know how much I could spend without being overdrawn and put money aside.

Ive never been as fully satisfied with an app as I am with this one.

This is seriously the best finance app Ive ever downloaded. I can literally set aside $50 randomly by sending a text that I want to transfer $50 to savings. I can set a minimum balance that ensures that Digit will not automatically save money if my account is below the minimum. I really love this app. And the interface is great. I can see my Chase checking balance with one text, see my most recent transactions and more. Have I mentioned how awesome this app is??
