F6 questions

before you pay $12 for a spreadsheet.

does it work in google sheets?

yes. upload the file to google drive and open it with google sheets. same sheet, same pet. there are no macros in it, so nothing breaks on the way.

does it work on my phone?

it opens in the excel and google sheets apps, and you can type a number there and he reacts. the room is small on a phone. it is nicer on a laptop.

do i need to know excel?

no. you click a cell and type a number. if you can do that, you know enough.

is it a subscription?

no. $12, once. the file is yours and it keeps working next year.

what if i don't like it?

you have 30 days. ask for a refund and you get your money back. the refund page says how.

how do i get the file?

you pay on a stripe checkout page, and the next page has the download. no account, no waiting for an email.

does it connect to my bank?

no. it's just a spreadsheet. nothing leaves your computer. you type what you spent, which is the point: he only cries about what you admit to.

can i try it first?

yes. the free month is the same sheet, one month long. no signup.

it's just a spreadsheet.

with a pet in it. he is watching the takeout.

one payment. works in excel and google sheets. no macros. 30-day refund.
