About Better than Budgeting
Track where your money is going with this simple but powerful personal finance app. The Better-than-Budgeting-App is for everybody who doesn’t need thousands of features but are looking for a simple, beautiful app to track personal spending.
This app has a strong focus on simplicity. It can be so easy to record a transaction: tap the desired category from the apps home screen --> the QuickAdd-dialog opens – from here, you can enter the desired amount with a large, easy to read number pad --> hit OK and you’re done. The amount you entered is automatically assigned to the current day. 95% of the time that’s all you need. And if you really need to enter more details (different date, payment method, comments, etc.) you can use a detailed dialog.
The app does not have every function you can imagine, but rather utilizes a solid set of features. It aims to be an app you actually use - not just install. It’s ad-free and no Internet connection is required.
Usage scenarios:
- Use it as your primary spending tracker
- Use it to record your spending on the road in combination with another tool at home
- The app can also be used temporarily to keep track of a shopping tour, vacation or business trip
- A compatible desktop app is also available (see below)
Main Features:
- From the Category List, you can reach all the central functions with a single tap
- Categories can be grouped by expenses, income and investments
- Assign each category a suitable icon
- automate recurring transactions
- Enter transactions with the QuickAdd dialog without having to use the native keyboard
- Several charts and reports are available
- Configure two standard payment options to be used within the QuickAdd dialog
- No Internet connection is required
- Export your data to CSV
- Mail yourself the exported data directly from the app or upload it to Dropbox
- Backup and recovery features
- Detailed documentation is also integrated
A free compatible desktop app for Windows or Mac is also available.

This app along with Quick Books is awesome! The charts are great. Had some surprises as to where a lot of money was going (insurance). Made some phone calls and saved more than $500 a year.

Clean and simple UI, nice icons, useful charts. There are still some room for improvements such as sub-categories and some measures of securities.

Whatever it CAN do, since it takes more than three full minutes to open, it can't do it for me.

The app is nice, helps me keep everything in order. The only problems I have are that my repetitions automatically show that it was payed, when looking at my balance I couldn't figure out why I was negative a certain amount of money, it took me a while to figure out that the app updated it for me exactly on the day instead of myself. I payed the bill two days later. now that I know I check but that one time confused me. I also can't figure out how to put in my investments, there's no tutorial or walkthrough

It doesn't seem to have an option to include debt repayments and related debit balances, so I uninstalled.

Two things I would like it to have: 1. Subcategories, so I would fine tune my spendings. 2. An embedded calculator with basic operations (+ - * /). Some times I have to split an invoice and it will be handy to have.

Great app so far. I've only used it for a few days but I like it. Would be nice if it had some kind of transactions look up. Not complaining, though. It's free - no ads and minimal permissions.
