About Budget with envelopes

Avoid overdraft fees, unexpected shortages, the minimum payment treadmill, and that sinking dread when you realize you actually couldn't afford to go out.

That's what Budget is for, and it's easy. You put money into the envelopes at payday, and take it out as you spend. An envelope can represent anything — a bank account, money set aside for groceries, or the cash you're saving to buy that new Android phone off-contract. Think of a checkbook, only more flexible.

Managing money is a drag, but it doesn't have to be painful or difficult.

I have tried kinds of envelope budgeting apps and I have lost count of how many of them I have uninstalled. This one is clear, easy to set up and sooooo not complicated. You add your money to the envelopes and enter what you spent. BAM! Done. No figuring your budget based on when you get paid and all that complicated stuff. Just you and envelopes. Plus if you have a question or problem, the creator of the app will actually reply to you and very quickly. Thsns so .much for making this app!

This app doesn't crash, which puts it ahead of some other envelope apps i've tried. However, its features are really lacking. Settings don't work, envelopes can't be edited, the interface is so streamlined that I can't features I need. This app is half finished.

love how simple it is. Easy to edit payments or remove, once u play around with it a bit to work it out. Graph only works if u go into envelopes and hit the paint bbrush to assign a colour to each envelope. Took me ages to work it out. Needs a simple tutorial or q&a

I HAD to review this app. I was not looking for a budget/finance app with all kinds of bells and whistles like so many out there even ones that say "Envelope Budgeting". What I needed was tracking cash in actual envelopes which is pre-budgeted, as in $150 for groceries for half the month (pay day is 1st and 15th). This works beautifully and simply. I almost deleted it though in frustration when I entered an expense and needed to delete it and couldn't figure out deleting. Swipe left worked. Yay.

I like this app. I use it everyday but it wont sync to my new phone.would be nice if all tge transaction section add up the expenses for the year.

Good app, but I think you could reach more users if it had a dark theme and an option to disable the graph.

Just a sugesstion but perhaps can you make the color bar next to each category base on amount spend over budget amount for that catagory.?

Cash is the way to go for budgeting and I tried Good Budget for several months and it's just over kill. This is simple and easy. Add the money, take it out or transfer it. Please don't add a whole bunch of other features. The beauty of it is that you can add lots of envelopes. When you think about it, paying your bills didn't get you in trouble with the budget, it's the other ways you spend your money that are the problem. Really happy to have finally found something that works!

Fantastic app to track out goings....but....Please update and add features like the option of be able to Add salaries or money coming in the bank. Also the option of reaccuring bills or expenses. Just a few improving sugestions. Well done so far!

It won't work for me without a way to sync it with the app on my partners phone. Guess I'll keep looking.

I would give it 5 stars but it seems to be missing one important (to me) feature. All of my envelopes work on %. So when I get a paycheck it would be nice to automatically divide it into my envelopes instead of manual entry.

by X####:

This essential feature is missing. Also, long-clicking an area should bring up options to delete it. Very unpolished.

I use this App to keep track of my money. It always gives me a clear conciousness of my finances. Also, discrepancies between the values in this app and my wallet/bank account will alarm me of unforseen/overlooked transactions. Many thanks to Michael!

I like its simplicity. It's a glorified checkbook register. I'd like to see a way to delete entries, reset the envelopes, and widget updating. Simple is better!

I have been looking for an "envelope budgeting" system, and this is the best! It is so easy to stay within my budget, because I see how much I've spent, and how much is left. A wonderful money management app.

I haven't worked out how to delete envelopes or mistaken entries yet (I don't think you can) but otherwise it's working great. You can color code envelopes, add a note to any input or out put and it doesn't pressure you to keep to a schedule like some other apps. A handy way to record where your money is going and where you want it to go.

Seems like it could be a useful app, although I haven't really gotten the hang of it yet. If the UI was a bit more polished and modern I would be included to use it more.

K70%
by K####:

This is the only app of its kind. There are many budgeting apps, but this is the only one that very simply does one thing. No connection to your bank accounts, no dropbox sync, no default list of 150 spending categories. You put money into an envelope, you take money out of the envelope when it's spent. Plain. And. Simple. And, it looks good too!

Just what I need a nice simple app. Would give 5 stars but needs a zero button so I can start from scratch at the beginning of each month. It would also be nice if you could sort or rearrange the envelopes.

by Q####:

I really like this app because it looks good and is just simple to use. It would be nice if envelopes could be set to automatically refill based on the month. And in case anyone is wondering, to delete an envelope just swipe left. That wasnt immediately clear.

Easy to use. All the others I installed were very complicated. One issue - how do I enter my paycheck amount ? I am not able to save it. Help please! *Update* - I changed my review because no one is responding to my question and I don't know how to start another month.
