First, it’s not an application, it’s a website that’s optimized for the iPhone. Second, you still have to have had created an online Quickbooks account on your PC, which most Mac users don’t have.
Until Quicken comes out with an application, it’s useless to me. I’m not about to install winblows on my Mac just so I can get Internet Explorer because the online version of Quickbooks won’t work on a Mac. By Kurt. It is a web application, not a software application, but all the more still an application, and if you try the demo it looks really cool actually. You are right that Quickbooks online won’t work on macs. Most people install parallels or bootcamp to use quickbooks online on the mac.

One thing I remind my Greater Seattle customers who are switching to Macs (because they perceive the Mac as being a more stable and reliable device) but still want to run their Windows programs (Quicken comes to mind) is in most cases, they still have the old operating system and QuickBooks for the PC that they could install on their new Mac in one of the VM type programs.
By Cathy. You cannot input information. Therefore it is essentially useless to people that buy things and want to keep track of purchases and other expenses in real time. By steve. Ditto would be a great app if you could update files remotely. Then I could leave the laptop at the office.
By Patrick. don’t have an online account with QB. Don’t really need.
Would like to be able to upload my desktop QB file (unfortunately, windows only at this point.Mac QB still not at WinQB levelalthough prefer to using Mac computers) to my own site (example–.mac) and be able to view from there. Biggest problem with QB (all QB) you only support Internet Explorer. PLEASE change that. Please support other browsers.Firefox, Safari for example. Lots of people do not use or like IE. Thankskeep working at it. By nickee amado.
Of no use without the ability to enter expenses on the road by mark Duncan. You can already use quickbooks on mac!
By. Now there is a free app called that lets you enter expenses from the iPhone. By Appmin. That’s for Quicken, not Quickbooks. Or does it let you access Quickbooks as well?
By. You are right, Charles, it’s only for Quicken by Appmin. Does the new Quicken online mobile let you enter expenses from the iPhone for QuickBooks as well as Quicken? By. No by Appmin.
Come on i want to input when i buy stuff my wife keeps telling me i need to know where i spent money on what job site and when you can run up to 3 a day for a month getting it all sorted out at the end of the month is a pain. By Christopher. you can use BillingManager. Its a very simple tool in which you can create Invoices, record payments etc. Its available on iPhone (as an application) by Vijay. I use Quick books in single user mode and would like to do transactions remotely and sync with my office computer when I get back. Ipod touch would be perfect to take with me.
By wired. I AM NOT ON LINE WITH QUICKBOOKS. I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP IT THAT WAY. I WOULD LIKE TO TRANSFER INFO FROM PC TO PHONE TO TAKE QUICKBOOKS WITH ME FOR A REFERENCE AND CONTACT LIST FOR MY BUSINESS.
By vanburehs. Exactly! And I often have no access to internet on jobs. By wired.
wow cheers for this just posting on my twitter now. By. I am new to iphone and would also like to have access to my Quickbooks Customer list (from my PC) and perhaps enter expenses. Is this on the way? In the meantime, is there a contact sync between iphone, google, QB?
By. “I WOULD LIKE TO TRANSFER INFO FROM PC TO PHONE TO TAKE QUICKBOOKS WITH ME FOR A REFERENCE AND CONTACT LIST FOR MY BUSINESS.” This is ALL that many folks want access to their customer data, jobs, etc. It’s not brain surgery!! Why, oh why, does it always have to be so difficult with Intuit? This should be simple, but they always want to stick it to the business person at every chance they get. It’s very frustrating, especially when I could use Captra SEVERAL YEARS AGO to access the same QB info on a PalmPilot for FREE!! I HATE INTUIT by Charlie.
Thank you for sharing this mobile web link However, it is so LAME! I meanI can look at my data but absolutely no functionality.
I would love to be able to pay my employees with Direct deposit from my phone. This is something where a printer is not requiredwhy can’t we make this happen. Mobile business is mainstream, yet we don’t have a way to actually ‘operate’ away from our computers yet. Come on Sorry for ranting but I hate how the companies that should have SOLID iPhone Apps don’t make it a priority. You know I would pay $$ for it right? I’d probably pay somewhere around $100 if it actually had ‘real’ functionality, not just a glance at what’s going on. I might as well take 5 minutes and log in through my mac and get things done.
I just don’t get it by. Just a way to do invoices would take this a long way. I am on the road and while I am working with a client it would be great to be able to create an invoice so I don’t have to re-enter it at home.
I can live without printing it, if I can email/snail-mail it later. I need the total on the spot. By. Has anyone worked with the MobileMe and QB for mac? By Zack.
I’ve been using dropbox for about 6 months now. You can get enough space for your quickbooks file for FREE. I installed the program on my desktop and it sets up a file folder. You move your Quickbooks file there. Then I installed the program on my laptop, waited while the program worked and the file showed up very quickly in the new dropbox directory on my laptop. The best thing is that you do not need an internet connection. Some of the places I travel do not have internet.
As long I I use the laptop to connect to the internet before I go (or at McDonald’s along the way) the most current file is with me because dropbox copies the files to your hard drive! Instant backup and instant access on my desktop or laptop to the same file. I still have Carbonite, but I upgraded to the 50G space and with a little research found out how to move my address, calendar and iphoto files into dropbox also. Backup and easy access in one program.
Only problem is that you want to keep those programs above that you have synced closed. Which ever one is closed last, that is the file you will have in dropbox. I moved all those icons to the far left of my dock and just trained myself to keep them closed. I now work with ALL my files in dropbox.
I can access them anywhere I can get internet and if I make a small change, I have the latest copy on all computers. By. I am looking to get an iphone but for the sole purpose of being able to run our small business remotely. I have set up our quickbooks for remote access but I don’t always have the laptop with me. I want something easy to shoot out an invoice or enter payables immediately. Is there a iphone app that will allow this?? By Alyssa.
I just got my iPad and uses qbonline for our business. Hope this app works well on iPad. By. QB online is an inferior product and this app will not help you if you use one of the normal desktop versions of QB. By Holly.
this app falls way short! I love QB online but it just doesn’t work on the ipad. By bob richardson.
You can access any version Of Quickbooks online or not with logmein ignition. Check it out. I use it all the time and it is fantastic. I don’t use my laptop much at all any more.
By Brian. Quickbooks Online is inferior, expensive, once you buy it you are locked into it forever and can’t get your files out of it, and if they raise the rates you have to pay it because there is no contract.
Who would buy that garbage service. Almost every company I know runs a single version of quickbooks for 2 or 3 years before upgrading.
Even if they upgraded every year it ends up being cheaper to buy the software every year. By David Carroll. All of these problems people are having with Quickbooks could easily be avoided if users were simply willing to go with another program, for example the programs offered by. I want to use my I phone to create invoices at the job site and be able to e mail customer their invoice and down load the invoice info into the bookeepers quickbook data that is Windows / Microsoft formate, not mac.
Can anyone help inform me on my options? By Bill Leave Comment Name (required) Mail (will not be published) (required) Website Notify me of followup comments via e-mail Copy this password Paste password here.
Last February, Intuit an addition to its QuickBooks Online offering, an iOS app called that allow access to your QuickBooks data without requiring you to be pinned to your desk. While it’s clearly a first generation app—which means it doesn’t have all the features I’d like to see in an app of this sort—QuickBooks Online for iPad has the potential to ease your estimating and invoicing while you’re on the road. It’s important to note from the start that QuickBooks Online for iPad is not a standalone app that you can use to manage your business’ books, and it isn’t an app you can use with the Mac or Windows of QuickBooks. QuickBooks Online for iPad is solely designed as a helper app for a new or existing account. A service that costs from $13 to $40 per month. If you don’t already have a QuickBooks Online account you can use the app to create one, and if you do you can use the app to log into your existing account and go right to work.
Mobile mogul: QuickBooks Online for iPad provides offers invoicing and basic reporting tools for you QuickBooks Online account. Work using the app is limited to a few basics functions that do not encompass everything possible with QuickBooks Online. You can add new customers, create estimates and invoices, add expenses, receive payments, and create some basic but useful reports.
These features work well, but you don’t have access to some of the core functionality of QuickBooks Online and it’s also missing features that seem pretty obvious for what is ostensibly a mobile app. Adding customers is easy, as is adding any other type of transaction. From any QuickBooks Online for iPad screen you tap a (+) that appears in the app’s upper right-hand corner, then choose either Customer, Invoice, Payment, Expense, or Note and begin adding the appropriate information. If you’re creating a customer the app is able to pull info from your Contacts app. Although, while the app offers a field for a customer photo, that photo is not imported from the Contacts app.
Customers viewed within QuickBooks Online for iPad display a map pinpoint with the address location for the customer. Tapping that map opens the Maps app and automatically finds directions from your location to the customer location.
Once customers are created you can begin creating invoices for those customers. Invoices can include personal notes with photos you’ve taken of a project or items you’re selling. If you don’t already have an item set up, you can create new items int he app as you’re creating your invoice. The beauty of QuickBooks Online for iPad is that, no matter whether you’re creating customers, invoices, or items you sell, as long as you have an active Internet connection, everything your create on the app is synchronized and updated to your QuickBooks Online account. And anything you create in QuickBooks Online is also synced to your iPad.
Invoices look gorgeous when you view them on the iPad, but that beauty doesn’t transfer to the invoices your customers receive. What they get instead are forms based on the default templates you’ve selected in the QuickBooks Online app. As is the case with the desktop version of QuickBooks and applications such as, these templates are sterile, uninteresting, and minimally customizable. They’ll work, but it’s small details like these that keep me using for all my invoicing and time billing needs. Which raises another important point. QuickBooks Online for iPad has no time billing features, which is a pretty obvious hole in an app designed to be brought on-site to a customer location.
It’s also important to note that while the app has some basic reporting functionality—you can view open and closed invoices, profit & loss graphs, and a bar chart of invoices by month—these are a very limited subset of what’s possible at QuickBooks Online. Furthermore, while I know we live in an increasingly paperless world, there is no way to print anything from the app. Bottom line QuickBooks Online for iPad is an excellent start for what has the potential to be an amazing add-on to QuickBooks Online.
Its invoicing tools, access to customer data, and basic reporting tools make it an enticing app, but missing time billing and access to more detailed reporting features make it an app that is not yet good enough to stand on its own.
