All Versions of OpenBudget

1.4.3

February 6, 2022

In this release: Fixed: - App was unresponsive while syncing, all that is now done in the background. - Moving the cursor in a currency field and then editing would move the cursor incorrectly after each edit. - App would suddenly come to a screeching hault, those problems are now fixed. - Fixed a bug that would re-download all of a user's data each time the app was opened. - Search bars, and some other text inputs, didn't appear the correct color in dark mode - When splitting a transaction, sometimes using the "Split Evenly" would give you a few cents extra. - Using the "Split Evenly" button when splitting transactions doesn't automatically save the transaction. We've also slightly redesigned the transaction input. Splitting transactions is much smoother. Plus some of the visual bugs in Dark Mode have been dissapeared!

Alongside the reworked reports, we've added two new widgets showing a history chart of a category right on your home screen, and the current total balance of your budget! - New Sync System (Accounts no longer required) This improvement has been a long time in the making.

Also, the sync system has been improved to be more efficient and less buggy! The next time you open the app, your account will be automatically transfered to the new system so you won't have to do anything.

Description of OpenBudget

OpenBudget helps you split your money into categories, track your spending, and save your money with ease. # Here's how it works - Spend on what you need OpenBudget splits your money into categories so you know you’ll have enough for what you need. When you spend money, you’ll take it out of a category. When the category is out of money, you stop spending from the category.

Recording transactions is fast and simple, without giving up any functionality. # Features - Simple, envelope style budget - Fast expense tracking - Useful reports - Use any currency - Transaction history search - Automagical sync across unlimited devices - No account needed # Pro Features - Track subscriptions - Schedule expenses - Custom app Icons - Unlimited Categories - Infinite Transaction History ## More Features # Subscriptions Track subscriptions and other repeating transactions with ease. Whether it’s your monthly Netflix or a once-a-year income, OpenBudget can handle it all. It’s intuitive and simple to get started for your budget, and then it just works.

Add it to your budget in the future, already split into your categories, and OpenBudget will take care of it for you. It’ll automatically be allocated to your categories when the date comes! # Envelope Style Budgeting A proven system of budgeting, but with OpenBudget it’s virtual and fast. Instead of your money being a mystery until you spend it all, set how much you’ll spend on categories like Food and Gas.

Reviews of OpenBudget

  • Has potential

    Subscribed and tried for one month. I’m looking for a cheaper alternative to GoodBudget and similar apps for an “envelope system”. I don’t need to sync actual bank accounts just need something to categorize and track my finances.

    This could be it, easy to use and has the main concepts in place. but not developed enough.

    Editing transactions: can’t change category or date.

    Report generating: didn’t work for me; and I need all transactions to list.

    Customer support didn’t respond to email.

    Just not confident this app is stable enough.

    But hope it gets more attention from the developer. You got this!
  • So far so good.

    The previous reviewer was annoyed that you couldn't clear purchases for the month, but that is exactly what I was looking for. I get really annoyed at apps that start you over from the beginning when the month ends. I don't budget for 30 exact days, I budget by payperiod.

    This simple app is exactly what I was looking for. Categories to pull from so I know where my money is going while also showing me what I have leftover to save. It's simple, it's clear, and it's helping me immensely.

    I only took off one star because the withdrawl button my mac isn't as seamless as the iphone app. I have to click another category, and then click withdrawl again.

    In the future, I'd love to have a reconcile button for transactions. But I am happy to have it as it is now, and it doesn't change the benefit for me.

    Thank you!
  • Great Until a New Month Started

    This is a great little app but I can't figure out how to reset/clear the entries after the first month. I have searched everywhere for how to clear the transactions short of going in and deleting each of them by hand. Emailed support a few days ago - no response. For the monthly subscription rate it should be far more obvious or support should get back to you asap.
