Whats New:

New Features in Cha-Ching 1.6

  • Adjusted layout of the “accounts” screen to be more readable
  • Payee tab now remembers its position (all, favorite or nearby)

Bugs fixed in Cha-Ching 1.6

  • Fixed an issue that caused Cha-Ching to crash suddenly when entering a transaction
  • Fixed an issue where “total spent” might not be accurately represented from within your budget
  • Fixed an issue where the “Passcode Lock” screen would show when receiving a text message or system alert while using Cha-Ching touch
  • Fixed an issue where transaction status (pending vs. reconciled) wouldn’t sync correctly in some cases
  • Fixed an issue where “nearby” payees wouldn’t be found sometimes
  • Fixed an issue where syncing might only work once per session
  • Fixed an issue which prevented setting a transaction category to “uncategorized”
  • Fixed a crash that occurred when deleting a category from the category list while searching
  • Fixed an issue where payee categories weren’t syncing properly to the iPhone
  • Fixed an issue where category changes might not sync with Cha-Ching 2.0

    Nice to see it finally available. I wish you launch the Cha-Ching 2.0 as soon as possible too, because a lot of people trust in this company to handle all the profissional and personal finance.

    I`m running Leopard… I see no other solution now besides buying the Snow Leopard.

    It would be awesome if you were to put a Screencast that show all the new features and bug fixes!

    I love the changes – especially the online panel. We now use Cha Ching exclusively for our personal finances. My wife and I both have it on our iPhones, and we check it constantly. Keep up the good work!

    “It would be awesome if you were to put a Screencast that show all the new features and bug fixes!”

    What about approaching Don McAllister (Screencasts Online) about this. He did a great two parter on Things a few weeks ago. They sponsored the show which is good for Don and for the sponsor too. His screencasts are brilliantly produced and delivered.

    Just a thought!

    Come on guys, where is the Cha-Ching with Leopard support? I`m starting wondering about moving to another software.

    How can I create a new transfer using Cha-Ching Touch 1.6? I can see transfers created on the Mac, but I can’t find a way to create a transfer on the iPhone.
    Thanks.

    I Don’t know…. I feel that Midnight apps is giving priority to iPhone users and desktops users like us are not that important no more.. I have both apps the iPhone and the Mac one. and I barely use the iPhone one.. it’s cool and all but most of the time I use my Mac to handle those things.. Seriously guys, tell me if you are going to provide the final version or new updates or anything before I go and buy Squirrel app that looks more or less like cha-ching with lots of features. HURRY UP I’m just saying.

    So, it is now 2010 and Quicken is coming soon… (Though I have heard that before) Where is Cha-Ching headed? I haven’t committed to a financial software package yet. I have looked at Quicken Financial Life Beta, iBank, Moneywell, Moneydance and Cha-Ching…. No one has the perfect package yet… So where is this headed?

    I wish I could take pictures of receipts with my iPhone and link them to transactions which would then sync to the desktop app…
