A bank balance tells you what's in your account. It doesn't know what's already committed.
Survival Budget shows you what's actually safe to spend. Four fixed tiers, funded in order: Survival, Important, Quality of Life, Future Building. You always know what's covered, what's flexible, and what to adjust.
Works offline. No account. No subscription.
How it works
Your money is organized into four fixed priority tiers:
- Survival
- Important
- Quality of Life
- Future Building
You cover the base first.
When something needs to give, Future Building moves before Survival does.
The order never changes.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
This update fixes a bug that erased your monthly income when you reopened the app.
If you set up a budget and later found the income gone, this was why. Your expenses could disappear the same way, because the app rebuilds them from figures it had already overwritten.
This happened on your device. The app overwrote the saved values locally each time it started.
After you update, the income you enter stays where you put it. Anything already lost has to be entered again.
