Troubleshooting
Reminders Not Showing
If you're not receiving bill reminders:
- Open Settings on your device and go to Notifications
- Find Bill Organizer and make sure notifications are enabled
- Check that Allow Notifications is turned on and your preferred alert style is selected
- Make sure Do Not Disturb or a Focus mode isn't blocking notifications
Advanced Reminders (Premium)
Premium users have access to Advanced Reminders:
- Set up to 5 reminder times per bill (e.g., 1 week, 3 days, and 1 day before)
- Get automatic follow-up reminders for overdue bills
- Take action directly from notifications—mark as paid or snooze
- Free users can set one reminder per bill, from the same day up to a month before
iCloud Sync Issues
If your bills aren't syncing across devices:
- Make sure you're signed into the same Apple ID on all devices
- Go to Settings, tap your Apple ID, then iCloud, and check that you are signed in and have iCloud storage available
- Check that Bill Organizer is allowed to use iCloud (Settings → Apple ID → iCloud → Apps Using iCloud)
- Close the app completely, then reopen it to trigger a fresh sync
- Ensure you have an active internet connection
Household Sharing Not Working
Household Sharing is a Premium feature. If shared spaces aren't syncing for all members:
- All household members must be signed into iCloud with their own Apple ID
- Each member must open the iCloud invitation link and accept it on their device
- Make sure everyone has the latest version of the app installed
- Try closing and reopening the app to refresh the sync
Billing and Restore Purchases
If you're having trouble with your Premium subscription:
- To restore a previous purchase, go to Settings in the app and tap Restore Purchases
- Make sure you're signed into the same Apple ID used for the original purchase
- To manage or cancel your subscription, go to Settings on your device, tap your Apple ID, then Subscriptions (how to manage subscriptions)
- For billing disputes or refunds, contact Apple Support directly through the App Store
Partial Payments
Premium users can record partial payments. When recording a payment:
- You can enter any amount up to the full balance
- The remaining balance updates automatically
- All payments are recorded in the bill's payment history
- Once the full amount is paid, the bill is marked as complete
Subscription Information
Bill Organizer offers two Premium subscription options:
- Weekly Premium: 3-day free trial, then billed weekly and auto-renews weekly
