Bank balance counts money that's already spoken for. Budgey shows what's left after real life — one clear number — without the guilt spiral or a complicated system. Why Budgey What's left, always: One number — Remaining this period — tells you what you can actually spend right now. Budget by paycheck, not calendar: Periods run payday to payday, so the math finally fits how you're paid. Talk to BaoBot: Have a real voice conversation with your budget assistant. Ask what's left, log spends, review synced bank transactions, set your paycheck — hands-free. Manual tracking (fast): Add an expense in seconds, or use the receipt scanner to auto-fill. Custom budget categories: Rough is fine — a few buckets with one total each beat a spreadsheet. Bank sync with a Review Inbox: Connect your banks (optional) and approve what comes in — you stay in control of every import. Recurring bills: Never miss a bill; set due dates and reminders. Goals: Savings and debt payoff, funded by what's left each period. Custom accounts & themes: Track cash, cards, and any account you define — in vibrant, accessible themes beyond light/dark. Built for real people No shame, no red-limit guilt. Great for zero-based and envelope methods — or nothing fancier than "what can I spend?" Key features Expense tracking • Budget planner • Budget categories Payday budget periods • Spending tracker • BaoBot voice AI Recurring bills & reminders • Receipt scanning • Bank sync Custom accounts • Goals & insights • Quick search Free to start — no card needed. Budgey Unlimited unlocks bank sync, unlimited BaoBot, carryover, and more. Support & tips: budgeyapp.com Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Helpful app, good customer service support

EDIT: the founder reached out and fixed this! There was a bug that resulted in this problem but they made it right and restored my access to my data. Grateful for the support and now I will be happily back to using this helpful budgeting app!—Don’t waste your money! I bought this app for $9.99 for lifetime access to the basic budgeting features. Then, one month later, they change to a subscription model where they now want to charge me $10 more each month just to access the budget that I already made! I can’t access my own data now without paying more— a bait and switch tactic. Essentially they revoked the service I had already bought.

Hi there, I’m truly sorry this felt like a bait-and-switch. That was never our intent. A bug in our recent update mistakenly locked basic budgeting features for customers who previously purchased the one-time (lifetime) version. We’ve just released a fix. Please update to the latest version and fully restart the app, and your existing budget/data will be accessible again.To make this right, email support@budgeyapp.com and I’ll add complimentary Premium to your account for the trouble.Thank you for your patience and for supporting Budgey.

I honestly didn’t think budgeting could be this fun! The theming of this app alone makes me want to open it every day. The little panda “mascot” is adorable, and I love that I can switch up the themes (the cottage core one is my favorite.Budgey works like a digital envelope + zero-based budgeting system, which makes tracking super intuitive. It’s been rolling out updates pretty often, and honestly, it’s exciting to see the app keep improving.The biggest win for me though? It’s made me way more mindful of where my money goes. I’m already feeling more confident about tackling my debt faster thanks to Budgey. Highly recommend if you want a budget app that’s actually motivating and fun to use.

Edit to my original review - I was locked out of some of the app when the new update rolled out. This was upsetting because I’d paid already. The developer was prompt and friendly and went above and beyond to assist. I’ve been using Budgey since the beginning of 2025 - after much trial and error with various apps. It’s been the most straightforward app that I’ve tried while also meeting all my budget tracking needs.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I want to sincerely apologize for the experience you had. A recent update unfortunately introduced a bug that mistakenly locked out our earliest supporters who purchased the one-time paid version of Budgey from accessing their categories and budgets. This was never our intention, and I completely understand how frustrating it must have been to suddenly feel like features you had already paid for were being taken away.We’ve released a fix so that original paid users will continue to have access to the budgeting features you purchased. If you’re still seeing issues, please try restarting the app. And if the problem continues, reach out to us at support@budgeyapp.com and we’ll make sure your account is restored immediately, with full access.We’re deeply grateful for your support as one of Budgey’s early adopters, and I’m truly sorry this bug caused you to feel otherwise. Thank you for giving Budgey a try, your trust means a lot to us.
