Invoice Maker ▸ Invoice Simple — Too expensive and not enough working features I have used this app for years but at £15 a month it doesn’t work that well. If I need To find an invoice I have to know their exact name, it doesn’t allow me to search for dates. Like other ones do. Invoices have been deleted, half my…
Looking for a toolSwitching awayToo expensive …that limits users to only 10 invoices even with a paid subscription. I pay $150 per year, which is not a small amount, and this new restriction makes the app practically unusable for anyone who invoices regularly. There was no clear notice or justification for such a drastic downgrade in service. I strongly urge the…
Would pay…ng. I invoice by the quarter and don’t exceed the limit they created. They have support agents (once you ask for a human - the default is an AI bot which is absolutely useless) who give completely opposite advice and will override the system one month but tell you it’s impossible to the next month. Highly highly dodgy…
Strong complaintInvoice Maker ▸ Invoice Simple — Overpriced for a simple App I found a free app that does the same thing called Wave. Don’t waste your money with this money hungry company. I've been using them for over 6 years now. I've had features that were once accessible on my current plan with them stripped from me only to push…
Too expensive…cost before current subscription has ended! How is that even legal? Speaking with customer services is a waste of time as they just copy and paste meaningless drivel about caring about small businesses blah blah. It’s a basic app so why it needs to charge £200 suddenly is beyond me. Avoid this lot is my advice. Greed…

Questions about this idea
- Is App with reliable subscription service a startup idea?
- Not directly. These are complaints about a product or service people already use, and the fix belongs first to that provider. The page shows what is frustrating users and how badly — not an open market to start a company in.
- How many people have this problem?
- 41 different people described it independently, in 41 mentions, the earliest from 16 Aug 2023 and the most recent from 01 Sept 2026. The quotes, with dates and links to the originals, are in the Evidence section.
- Is this problem getting worse?
- Status: quiet — no new posts in the last 60 days. 0 people raised it in the last 30 days and 0 in the 30 days before; the status compares its share of everything collected from the same source, so collecting more or less cannot create a trend.
