Give every dollar a job. Bucket Money keeps your budget simple, private, and entirely on your device. No account required, no ads, no data collection.
Bucket Money brings envelope budgeting to your pocket. Split your money into buckets for rent, groceries, fun, and savings, so you always know exactly what's safe to spend.
SIMPLE BY DESIGN
• Create buckets and give every dollar a job
• Set allocation rules and fill your buckets each payday, automatically
• Track spending against each bucket so overspending never sneaks up on you
EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE
• Accounts: chequing, savings, credit cards, and loans with a live net-worth view
• Savings goals with progress tracking and contribution projections
• Subscriptions and recurring transactions so bills are never a surprise
• Receipts: photograph them, and text recognition fills in the details
• Analytics: spending breakdowns, trends, and monthly summaries
• Separate ledgers for personal and side-business finances
BUILT FOR SIDE HUSTLES TOO
• Clients, work orders, and PDF invoices
• Mileage and time tracking with tax-deduction estimates
• Exportable reports when tax season comes
YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
Everything lives on your device. No sign-up, no cloud account, no tracking, no ads. Back up whenever you like and take your data anywhere.
Bucket Money is free to try, with a one-time purchase to unlock everything.
Overall it is a decent app but it doesn’t refresh well and gets stuck at previous transactions. This needs fixing but it is good

Transactions are not working for me. It could be a good app if it worked.
Reminders That Arrive on Time
Until now, every reminder waited for you to open the app. Now they are handed
to your phone ahead of time and arrive at 9 AM whether Bucket Money is open or
not.
You get a heads-up two days before and again on the day for subscriptions,
credit card statements, recurring payments and loan repayments, a week's
warning for savings goal deadlines, and a nudge when an invoice has gone
unsent or unpaid. If someone hasn't paid back a loan by the date you set, you
get a reminder the day after. Reminders cover every ledger, not just the one
that is open.
Automatic charges get a heads-up too, worded so you can tell "this is being
charged for you" apart from "you need to pay this". Recurring income and
transfers that record themselves are included.
Private by Default
Notifications no longer show balances or prices, so nothing private appears on
your lock screen, watch, or car display. If you would rather see them, turn on
Show amounts in notifications under Settings > Notifications.
Hide Balances
Mask your net worth on the home screen, or any single account's balance, until
you tap to reveal it. Handy when someone is looking over your shoulder.
Recurring Transfers
Schedule a regular move between two of your accounts, like a monthly top-up to
savings, and it records itself on time.
Wish List Export
Share your wish list as a styled PDF or as plain text, either as one list with
a grand total or grouped by savings goal with subtotals. Give it your own
title, like "Birthday Ideas", or keep the default "Wish List". A PDF can also
have a different file name from its title.
Time Tracker
Add a break and it comes off the time between clocking in and out. Set an
overtime threshold and rate, and hours past it are paid at that rate.
Work Orders
Set your own invoice number on any work order.
Transactions
Deleting a transaction now offers Undo. And when you correct an amount, you can
choose whether the change should also apply to the account balance, so fixing
a typo no longer moves money that never moved.
Fixed
• Notifications never appeared on iPhone. They now arrive as they always
should have.
• Deleting a transaction left its amount in your account and bucket balances.
Deleting now reverses it, including both sides of a transfer.
• City, province, and postal code were squeezed onto one line in the business
profile and work order forms, too narrow to read on a phone. Each now has its
own line.
• The Premium screen keeps its buy button in view while you scroll, and shows
that Premium is unlocked if you already own it.
