Dear Claude,

Look at these numbers (providing screen grab of list in my spreadsheet). Tell me which entries add up to 102.79 (the difference between my bank balance and my estimate).

10 seconds later - 3 numbers, total 102.79 - counted twice on my sheet.

I hate when things aren’t exactly right.


Everything about Finalist seemed right to me - but on install - not really. What am I missing? Or is the value only really revealed in the ‘pro’ - with no way to experience it before commit?

App of the Year apparently.
