Good for the self employed

The Self Assessment view maps to the boxes so January is calm now, and quarterly updates went to HMRC with no fuss at all. No complaints so far.

Pros

Reporting is thin beyond income and expenses.

Simple, and it files

Quarterly updates went to HMRC with no fuss at all. That said, reporting is thin beyond income and expenses and you outgrow it the second you register for VAT or incorporate.

Pros

Cons

Reporting is thin beyond income and expenses.

Does the MTD job on my phone

It detects trips and I just swipe to say business or personal. The automatic mileage tracking has paid for the subscription many times over.

Pros

It detects trips and I just swipe to say business or personal.

Cons

There is no balance sheet, my accountant still does the year end.

Perfect for a driving heavy trade

The AI features are labelled beta and feel like it, and reporting is thin beyond income and expenses. Everything is on the phone, which suits how I actually work, which is about the only positive.

Pros

Cons
