I’ve tried several different budgeting apps and I’ve found that they’re either (1) hands off and require the user to manually track individual expenses or (2) so automated that the whole process tends to be a bit more complicated than it needs to be. Weekly is perfect in that it automatically pulls in transactions (w/ Plaid integration) - keeping the experience relatively hands off - but doesn’t overcomplicate the whole thing. The user experience and interface is super clean and easy to follow. Keeping everything within a ‘week-window’ also makes it more manageable to track expenses and understand how much is ‘left’ to spend based on income. A great app that I would definitely recommend. Just for some feedback points to make the app even better: wish there was a bit of a higher frequency rate at which Plaid pulls in transactions (may not be a Weekly app thing, but more Plaid-related). Also wish there was a way to re-review prior week transactions to reclassify if needed. Lastly, more of a nice to have - would be kind of cool to have a daily-view next to the weekly total. Just to help further ground the user on understanding what their daily budget is to help make better sense of spend limits. Amazing app and will continue to subscribe after weekly trial!

I have tried many budgeting apps from super detailed to basic information. My main challenge has always been I don’t live on a monthly budget. I live weekly even though I do get paid once a month. At the end of the month I was usually low on cash. Also tracking my spending was difficult with all the transactions etc. I even resorted to a weekly cash envelope system. This app is super simple. It covers recurring bills and then the rest is your free to spend cash. So for example gas, most budget apps would put that as a recurring so I would put $209 for the month. But then one week I would spend $65 and then the next week I would spend $40 due to gas price fluctuations. I could never really see if I had surplus or went over until the end of the month. Here the transaction comes up and it takes it from free to spend. If your under it only takes that exact amount from free to spend. So guess what I can see the extra $5 for a latte! Hope all of this makes sense. It’s definitely worth it for me to live with a weekly allowance.

Never in my life did I think I’d pay money for a budgeting app - it just seemed counterproductive but as soon as I got started on the app I knew it was something I could stick to. It works with my ADHD brain so well and seriously changed how I look at my money. I went from $0 to $400 in savings in 4 weeks and that might not sound like a lot to some but for me it is! The only things I would change about the app are; I wish there was a way to link my credit card accounts but not have it affect my cash flow. I am paying off my cards but want it separate from my checking and savings while still being able to easily track my numbers; secondly sometimes I want to manually add a transaction for a recurring item, for example if a bill payment is pending on my bank account for days but it’s paid , I want to add in into the app to show that it’s paid on time before it posts and is added into the app..but when I do that it messes up my cash flow for some reason and doesn’t apply the transaction to the recurring item I selected. If I add my paycheck early from the recurring category it makes my cash flow go down by that amount as if I am adding it into my safe to spend. I hope that makes sense . Anyways i love this app and got the yearly subscription which has been totally worth it so far.

This is hands down my favorite budget app but I noticed since 2023 my bank transactions are no longer syncing 2-3x a day and only syncing after 6pm it it’s not pulling in all posted transactions for that day- some posted transaction from the same bank account will update the following day. I bank with Capital One (big bank) and One United ( smaller bank) and both institutions use to sync more frequently. One United generally posts their transactions automatically and Weekly used to pick up those items immediately. CapitalOne used to sync 2-3x a day & now I’m lucky if it syncs once a day after 6pm. I wish there was a way to set a time for auto sync daily. I certainly would chose a 9:30am sync after most banks are finished running their system updates for the morning around 9am for transactions to post.Also, I wish the funds feature was more flexible where you have the option to not set a contribution time period. As someone on an irregular income, I’d like to be able to set up a fund without this parameter so at the end of the month I can just flow money into a fund vs rolling it over to the next week versus having to go through the annoying manual process of updating/deleting transactions so that my funds amount matches my savings accounts. Or have the option of having the EOM balance auto transferred to the fund account as your contribution amount.
