-- USER REVIEWS –-
Beyond spectacular! - This app is so fantastic- as with many other reviewers, I've tried other budgeting apps like Mint. But this is the only app that actually works. It incentives me to spend less money on some days, have extra to spend on the weekends. Thank you for not adding too many bells and whistles!

Life Changing - I am the WORST with finances and I've tried other apps, including Mint, which I used for a week and quit. But this app?? It's amazing. I can't speak highly enough of how much this app is getting my life together. I'm aggressively saving, paying off all of my bills and I know exactly what I get to spend a day. I will never NOT use this. I hope it's here forever.

Helps you be Accountable - This app turns my financial life into a game that I feel I can win. Daily Budget really works and it's core design sets it apart from other apps.

Extremely approachable budgeting app

Other apps may have more heavy-duty features, but this one was so fast to set up (being able to put in expenses at different time scales is great) and easy to understand. I also like how unplanned spending can be distributed over time without having to create a new expense category for it.

I think using this app needs a different mindset from others. In apps like Goodbudget or YNAB, you place every dollar into an envelope yourself, and you can have envelopes that store only $300, for example, and then you can’t put anything into them anymore. When you spend money you remove it from those envelopes, so you can always see how much money remains in each spending category. With this app, though, the idea is that you set up your expenses and then never think about them again; you pay them as they come, and whether you spent more or less than the budgeted amount for each expense is not tracked. This basically means that you need to set generous expense margins and take the leftover money as a pleasant surprise.

Super budget tracking app

It has all the features what you need to keep an eye on your spending. I have purchased a little bit of extras including the analysis charts and it is very good to see how we are tracking. I like that it is not linked to the card, I lodge all transactions immediately when they happen. Very easy to use and see, where your spending is, what you can and cannot influence.

Only I wish it can do even long term projections (1 year, 3years and 5years) charts. Also as a suggestion: some of the spending labels I no longer use and I am not sure how to delete them within the category. It always comes as a suggested label, however there is no function to get rid off it :) not a big deal. Overall - love it!!! Customer since 2017!!!

Better than many paid options!

In 10 years I don’t think I’ve ever left an App Store review - this app is that good! I’ve been looking for a budgeting app that doesn’t require bank details or account linking. I’ve also been searching for a solution that doesn’t require spreadsheets. This app is SO easy to use - I set it up in less than 5 minutes. It makes saving fun! It’s really helpful to see things broken down into daily amounts because looking at $___/day brings budgeting into digestible pieces instead of seeing a large $___/month and having to do the math yourself. Adding expenses, income, and goals is so easy and the customizable expense / saving intervals is great. 10/10!
