Straightforward budgeting app, that is pre-set with all the right financial categories you would need, and it even gives you a running balance of what your Account should look like day-to-day. The only critique or suggestion I have would be to add a "debt balance" feature that you can put in the balance of debts that can be paid off (like your car or loans) and see what the running balance of those are when clicked into that specific bill. Seriously though, developer/creator, you're awesome! ✌

This is a 6 Star app! Easy to get started and Fun to use! 1st enter your regular BASE incomes and reoccuring bills using the multiple entry button. If any amounts change, click on the day and adjust them! Now just enter your receipt totals every day. You will know your balance on any day of the year! Tons of features! This Creator hit a Grand Slam, and it's not linked to a bank account, like others! It is all you need unless you're a billionaire! But then..They use accountants! Lol.

This app is very simple to use and doesn't make the process overly complicated. I originally got it as a spending tracker because it keeps a running balance and allows me to put reoccuring bills in so I always know where I am at. The newest features of multiple accounts and being able to see future financial forecast combined with the upcoming feature of adding budgets to accounts make this 5 star. Again - LOVE that it's so simple and not bogged down with too much so it's not overwhelming!

This is truly the best app around for figuring out how to stay on top of ur bills. I'm a "gigworker" and couldn't find an app that allows u to add money from pay thatz a one-time thing. They all had "weekly salary" as an income option. All things I don't do anymore. And that's why I needed this app! Giving only 3 stars tho cuz there's no one-time app price. They want me to commit to a MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION!! So being a gigworker means no subscriptions; not doing this subscription either. :(

This app is extremely easy to use , after trying 7 others , I chose Simple Budget because I do my monthly budget, generate a report and make any updates as needed, I've been using this app for several years now, I find it easy and intuitive. Adding or deleting, or any updates to the file I find very easy, as well. So far, the only change I would find helpful, would be to display and update any additional data added after the original data was input , showing items in chronological order.

Very helpful! I love this app so far, I really wanted a budget app that's easy to use and can be customized easily as I'm terrible with money and can't keep track of my expenses on my own. As a teen getting into the world of bills and having to budget money on my own, it's a huge help and burden off my shoulders knowing how much I'm spending and where I can cut back. Id recommend this to my friends and anyone who struggles with money or just wants to keep expenses organized/in your control :)

So far I am loving this app! It does have a few minor glitches sometimes when swapping between features but nothing major. This is so nit-picking but I hate when looking at expenses and going back to the calender, the calender bounces. It got frustrating when adding my stuff in and trying to click what I need to quickly but now that I'm done and know it does it, it shouldn't be an issue. Over all the app is clean and easy to use and my favorite budget app I've used!

I like it, mostly. It does help me to track my expenses. But the pie chart shows my salary and other credits as expenses. I've looked for a way to change this in settings, but can't find anything. It does get the math right --adding credits and subtracting expenses. But this mistake pretty useless, when it really could be helpful. So, good apart from this

Instant 5 star. Super Simple and Easy to use. No need to create an account ( unless you want to back up then need to use Google account). Does ask you to Sync bank info. Doesn't do anything automatically. I want to add everything manually to keep things simple and it does that. - Just one thing I would love is to have an option to get a notification when the date od recurring expenses approaches.

Best budgeting app ever. Most of these apps just show you a similar interface to your bank's app. If I wanted that, I'd never have looked for a budgeting app to begin with! This app DOESN'T connect to your bank; you add your bills and expenses manually and it helps you visualize where you'll be after you spend your money. It's actually useful. Would love to see a widget for this app someday, to make adding expenses and income easier. If I could give this thing 10 stars I would.
