Good. But... by anonymGreat app. Just what I need. But I'm getting quite frustrated that I can't set envelopes to fill properly each week. It seems more complex than it needs to be :( 3/5
Works well for me and the hubs by anonymThis being a free app, I was really hesitant to see if it would be something that I/we could use and stick with. It has been a lifesaver! The sync feature with another device is great too! Keeping up with our spending has never been eaiser. I am not a "techy" person and this is perfect for me. Thanks Goodbudget! 5/5
So far, so GREAT! by anonymI'll admit, it did take a while to get the hang of it, and I did put it down for a couple of months out of discouragement. BUT, I just recently gave it another go, and I am now loving it. I think this will be just what we need to get our spending back under control. I have tried a few other apps, but I think this is going to be the best. I'm considering whether or not to upgrade. Right now I am just using the free envelopes to track my problem areas. 5/5
Simple and useful by anonymA great upgrade from paper envelopes that only one person can have with them at a time. This has really helped us to keep track of things and feel hopeful about paying off debt. 5/5
Love it! by anonymAs long as I track, it helps me big time. Great for making a plan and sticking to it. 5/5
Good by anonymDefinitely an awesome budgeting app. Simple and easy to use. Easy to sinc across devices and works seamlessly. I'd be more than willing to support this app by getting the full version, but the cost is ridiculous! A monthly fee for almost no extra features, I'll use the perfectly good trial version thanks. 4/5
Great for household budgets by anonymMy wife and I have tried a couple dozen different apps and systems and this is by far the most flexible and easy to understand. Great for families who want to keep on track together. Concepts are easy to understand, sync works really well, reports are helpful, the data is open so it's easy to import, export and backup your data and best (and most importantly) of all, the dev team is very active, always engaging their users and adding new and exciting features, fixing bugs, and generally being awesome! 5/5
Pretty good - but very limited by anonymNot anything fancy but it suits my needs and I like that you can sync between two devices. I don't need a lot of bells and whistles, I just want a simple budget app. I wish you could set up more than 10 envelopes. I was planning on doing a purchase in order to get more envelopes but I was expecting a 1 time purchase...looks like my only option is a subscription plan of $5/month. Lame. I'd rather do a one time purchase to get additional envelopes. Looking for a new app that allows for that. 2/5
the only budgeting system I use by anonymIf it wasn't for the manual entry of this app, I would overspend. This app keeps me very disciplined. I have an extremely low income but I was able to pay off my student debt, move out, pay a downtown rent, AND at the same time go out and enjoy the pricey, unique restaurants. I've used this app since it was called EEBA back in 2012. This isn't for everyone because it's very, very manual and tedious -which is the reason I LOVE it. This app or Excel. GREAT APP FOR BUDGET TRAVELLERS. Thank you so much for maki 5/5
Love the app by anonymLove the app for the most part. Wish more of the web functionality were available in the app. I despise subscription based services that limit what you can do on the app, as if modern phones can't do or as if they can't afford to implement them. Still a useful tool, however. 3/5
Very helpful, a little confusing to use by anonymI love the function of the app and what it does but the part where you have to fill envelopes and your budget and name them all is confusing. Why can't I set monthly budgets and have it automatically refill unless otherwise directed? 4/5
Best Budgeting App! by anonymI love this app! Its the best budgeting app I've came across. I like how it doesn't connect to your bank accounts. Those tend to be so complicated and glitchy, giving you false information, which enables you to spend what money you don't have, but are told you do have. This app took me a little getting used to, but I was good after a week or so. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND! 5/5
Best budgeting app for free or pay by anonymUsing this was so straightforward! My husband and I tried so many other apps including some that were a part of an expensive desktop program. This has been the most flexible, we can budget weekly, biweekly and so on. 5/5
Great! by anonymUpdate: they worked with me until my issue was resolved. Wonderful app with a wonderful development team!!!! Original comment: The only thing I don't like is that I have to go on the website to delete a transaction. Otherwise, it is wonderful and had definitely helped my hubby and I be getter stewards of God's money. 5/5
Love it by anonymWith this app, I am now actually able to save! Knowing exactly where my money is going to (down to the last cent) is the best thing ever! Thank you, DaySpring Technology! ??? 5/5
Just what I needed. by anonymYou become quite surprised where your money goes when you track it like this. Helped with frivolous spending. Would love to see Android Wear be integrated at some point. 5/5
Great but awkward: needs background sync by anonymInterface is awesome, but there's no background sync. I don't like manually opening the app to get it to sync. I want to record transactions in stores without reception, but then I forget to open the app when I get back home which means my wife doesn't get the latest transaction. Auto background sync = 5 stars 3/5
Simply beautiful. by anonymIt doesn't have a lot of features but what it has, it does best. Simple, fast and reliable! 5/5
Great app, but too expensive to be effective... by anonymI love this app, but the cost to get more than 10 envelopes is ridiculous, thus making the app's practicality, useless. As others have said, this should be a one time fee. Add in ads to the free version if you need to, but don't ask for a reoccurring $5 a month fee. That's kinda contradictive for a budgeting app... As I'd have to make a "Goodbudget" envelope. 2/5
Great work! by anonymBest budget app I've used, and I have tested a lot. Satisfied with the paid version, haven't disappointed me yet. Easy to use and navigate. Awesome! 5/5
Goodbudget rocks!! by anonymBest app ever! Helping keep our marriage intact. A lot fewer fights about money. A superb budgeting/ envelope tool for Dave Ramsey Financial Peace plan when we didn't want to carry cash but instead wanted to use only debit card purchases. 5/5
Great App, Full Functionality by anonymVirtually the same functionality as available on the website. Well written, easy to use. Really helps with budgeting and tracking expenditures. 5/5
by anonymGreat app! its really helping me to figure out where my money is going an to stay on top of my bills. The only thing I cant figure out is that I get paid every 2 weeks an where I am supposed to put my check amounts. How i am supposed to make all this in line with my checking account also wondering if each month my envelopes start over automatically or how I refill them. 4/5
Great free app, subscription too expensive by anonymI tried several other budgeting apps out there...many require you to link to your bank account which is not necessary. The virtual envelopes are the key. Dave Ramsey would be proud of you developers! Unfortunately, $45/year is way too much for what you get beyond the free version. Maybe if it was a one-time fee it'd be worth it. 5/5
Great app by anonymGreat budget app for people who hate budgeting. As simple or as detailed as you wanna make it 5/5
by anonymGreat idea but my month never started new on the 1st even though it was set to it. I have had the app for 2 months and it still says I am in month 1 (so basically saying I am over budget). It's a little confusing. 1/5
Great budgeting app by anonymI did a trial run with this app this month to see how well it would work, and I really like it. I was concerned about monthly envelopes that I put money in every two weeks, but other than the little envelope frowning at me it wasn't an issue at all. :-) 4/5
Normal and lack of important functions by anonymAfter using it for a month, I found manually filling envelope is inconvenient. It does not hav many functions like produce charts , incert photos, etc. The reason giving 2 stars is because it still provides fundamental functions for free unlike Toshl. I started to dislike it because it wanna charge monthly bill for extra envelopes and export??? FINALLY Pocket Expense has released its android version n DEFINITELY I LL BUY PRO caz it's really useful n only CHARGE ONCE FOR AMAZING FUNCTIONS. 2/5
Enveloped without the mess of envelooes by anonymLove that I can share my envelope with my household and we all have access on our phone. probably not as good as using cash as you can still go over but we are much more aware of what we are sending. 5/5
Helps by anonymIt does so much more online but app is good for a snap shot. The sync between the both is immediate! So cool. 4/5
No recurring transactions? by anonymI'd like to see recurring transactions, so I don't have to put one by hand in every time I pay for my Netflix etc. I like the ability to sync between 2 people, but I don't think the "envelope method" is for me. Setting a budget per tag, yes, but having to manually fill the envelopes with money is just unnecessary. 3/5
Not totally free by anonymOnly 10 envelopes I have way more monthly payments than 10. Will not pay 5 dollars a month seems like wasted money! 1/5
Great budget software! by anonymWhat you get in the free version is is good enough to do any normal household budget. I use it every day! The only thing I can suggest to add is something to organize things charged to different credit cards and some place to mark off when the transaction posts. Thank you for a great app! 5/5
Simple, does its job, and occasionally buggy by anonymIt's easy to master and use, and it's been helping me keep a close eye on my budget (I'm on a grad student budget) for two years now. Occasionally it does mess something up, but overall, it's a solid app. Just remember to record everything! It's a good habit to get into. 4/5
Great App by anonymReally practical and easy to use. Not perfect as refilling envelopes can lead to an unexpected surplus but that doesn't stop the app being a highly effective budgeting tool. 5/5
Faithful user for years by anonymThe wife and I have been using it for several years. Works well, not complicated, and it's easy to input transactions on the go. I suggest starting with the free version and not as many envelopes, then upgrading and adding categories for better spending insights. 5/5
Filling envelopes tricky by anonymWould like to fill envelopes manually but not working well. Makes me identify total income and I don't want to. Just trying to track certain spending. 4/5
Love the app, wish it was flat buy $ by anonymI love the app, but I use the free version because I would rather pay once than the subscription method used. It's killing it for me, and I am actively looking for a replacement although the app is everything I really want. 4/5
Very good by anonymThis app has helped me stay on top of my finances. But a great addition would be to allow me to schedule payments. I have payments that are every six months, and three, and that's hard to manage with this app. You have to enter every payment manually. Very difficult to manage. Implement auto payments and I'll be very happy! 4/5
Not sure I'll stick with it. by anonymThere are many reasons to like it. But I think I'm going to switch to an app that automatically pulls the data from my bank account so I don't have to enter the data manually. My biggest issue is the price. I don't mind paying for an app but $5 a month is too much for what it does. Many would complain about paying that much for their checking account. Let alone an app that just tracks spending. 3/5
