CNET Editors' review
Although more a record-keeper than a true assistant, Pageonce's ad-supported Personal Assistant app gives you the tools to view all your online accounts in one centralized location. Sure, you'll have to be comfortable storing all your passwords on your phone, but if you are, you'll find yourself relying on it to get all your details in a glance.
After adding accounts through an assisted browsing process, you'll be able to view a history of your banking transactions, stock portfolio, social commitments, and friends' status updates from a slew of social networks, e-mail accounts, and shopping services, like Netflix, Amazon, and eBay.
The read-only nature is lamentable--we'd prefer to act on e-mail messages and alerts--but A Personal Assistant undoubtedly gives you a quick reading on your vital signs.
In response to security concerns, Pageonce is shielded by 256-bit encryption, and the company sends you an e-mail alert of suspicious activity if "you" spend above your usual levels. The application's settings let you determine how passwords are saved, can limit your access to your particular device, and can delete all data stored on it if you move on. If you lose your phone, disabling your mobile account online pulls the plug. Upgrading to the premium version tacks on an extra layer of security in addition to a few more features.

"Such a life saver!"
Version: Pageonce Money & Bills 5.2
Pros
Helps me really get organized and not miss any more due dates. I was always paying bills late but no more. The reminders are really helpful on the phone.
Love that it brings all my accounts into one view. I'm much more comfortable paying my bills knowing what i have in the bank. I feel like I'm on top of things.Cons
Wish i could pay my rent, but i guess that's more my landlord's fault than Pageonce.
Summary
It's become one of those "must have" apps for me. Like weather, email, news, scores, Pageonce. I got rid of my bank app and prefer this instead. Recommend highly.

"Great for Keeping on Top of my Non-bank accounts"
Version: Pageonce Money & Bills 5.2
Pros
Amazing real-time notification of changes in many case. I sometimes get updated by Pageonce when my travel itinerary changes before my travel provider updates me! I don't know how they are doing it, but it is great to know they are watching my back.
I love being able to have one place to go for all my non-financial accounts. There's a bunch of places to get updates on credit cards, banks, and transactions, but no one keeps on top of my loyalty programs, Amazon or Netflix activity like PageOnce does.
For the things that are transaction oriented, I love how easy it is to get a quick analysis or pinpoint a specific account. I find that PageOnce does this much better than Mint or others I have tried (Manilla, Doxo, etc).Cons
Alas, I can't use PageOnce for all my needs. I bank at a local credit union and it doesn't appear to be supported for a linked account. As this is where most of my bill paying happens, I am out of luck. (minus one star for this)
PageOnce, please tell me what I need to do to get you to support Bay Federal Credit Union in California.
I have 2 different Chase Credit cards and PageOnce assigns one name to both of them. It's confusing at times.Summary
Overall PageOnce is an excellent way to keep on top of all your online activity whether it be financial or otherwise. It has the functionality, UX, and notification speed unmatched by any other product out there. If they could only support my local credit union, I would be in integrated app heaven. Give it a shot, you got nothing to lose and great insight to gain!

"Stays on top of all my accounts and pays my bills"
Version: Pageonce Money & Bills 5.2
Pros
Simple dashboard view of finances
3-step mobile bill pay rocks
Friendly interface
ConvenientCons
Comcast blocked
Summary
Keeps me up-to-date on my daily finances, with alerts about changes to accounts or when my bills are due. I can pay bills right from my smartphone, and move on. Great to always know the status of my accounts, from checking to investments and credit cards, wherever I am.

"Great Application"
Version: Pageonce Money & Bills 5.2
Pros
- Very simple to use
- All my financial accounts in one place
- The technology they use to link my accounts works better than other similar companies
- I can access my credit score in the application thanks to their "Credit Guard" service
- I always pay my bills on time nowCons
- Credit Guard should allow me to view my credit report in the Pageonce application. Instead, I have to go to the website to see my credit report.
Summary
Pageonce is the best personal finance app there is. If you want to pay your bills, check your account balances or check your credit score, there is no better way to do it than through Pageonce.

"Really useful app"
Version: Pageonce Money & Bills 5.2
Pros
Downloads all my accounts.
App is free to just view account info.
Simple and clean UI.Cons
Have to pay $5 to pay bills.
Summary
Love this app since I can view all my info in the app. I would like to try out the bill payment since I see the pay button in the app. But it costs $5 without any way of trying it out first.

"Like the service a lot"
Version: Pageonce Money & Bills 5.2
Pros
Easy to use
Functional
All your accounts in one placeCons
Work only in the US

"Garbage with ads."
Version: Pageonce Money & Bills 5.2
Pros
They took the time to create an app.
Cons
It was a paid app with no ads now it has ads to try and force you into buy a subscription, $5 a month/$60 a year to pay you bills. Smoke and mirrors.
Summary
There are ALOT of suspicious reviews in iTunes. There are unhappy customers putting in real reviews that tell the truth, but they are being forced out by pageonce staff or someone abusing their power. The app was worth it before they updated it. I'm not sure how pageonce can get an actual assessment of how well the app is doing and improve it with fraudulent reviews? Or maybe they don't care and don't need them.
