  • Best budget app I’ve ever used

    It’s simple, straightforward, easy to use. Minimalism is the name here. A suggestion I have is the ability to edit and delete single items, or make it easier to do if that’s possible already, rather than restarting the entire envelope.

    Thanks for the kind review. If you swipe left on an item you will see an Edit button and a Delete button. 🙂
  • Very Nice!

    Super easy and quick to use, better than many others I’ve tried. Two suggestions I would make 1) transaction date - default to current date but allow editing. 2) list transactions in envelopes with newest at the top so I don’t have to scroll down to check if I’ve already added something.

    Thanks for your input. You can resort transactions by tapping the button that has two arrows (one pointing up, the other down).
  • Ad free version?

    Love the app. It’s simple and straight forward but no ad free version?

    Developer Response

    Thank you for the feedback. At this time ads are necessary to maintain the app. I hope to have an ad free version this year.
  • Great Envelope APP highly recommend

    This is a great app:) very happy with it. One thing to improve is the reset button is right next to another one that is commonly used. I have deleted all my information in my envelopes because the reset button was inadvertently pressed, with no secondary warning. If this could be moved or have a secondary warning when it is pressed that would be an awesome improvement to the APP.

  • Simple is good!

    Not so simple that it doesn't have a few key elements that I appreciate (like adding a memo to each transaction, or being able to edit an envelope without just fully deleting it, like other apps). Only been using it a few days, but so far I love it. I can make debits or credits to my envelopes without having to physically manage and carry cash. Perfect!

    The only thing I would change is shareability so my spouse could use it, too. For now, I just text him screenshots so he knows what's available to spend.

  • Simple & Quick

    I downloaded 25 budgeting apps to evaluate & this one is hands down the best. It’s quick & easy to set up & even enter transactions on the fly.

    There’s no learning curve, no gimmicks & no multiple pages to get through. I don’t need analysis or predictions. I simply want to add my transactions & be done.

    The UI is crisp & clean which I love. I set my envelopes up in 5 minutes. It’s exactly what I was looking for & it’s free! Thank you developer, you did a great job

  • Great little app

    The budget app I used for years started charging a monthly subscription fee. Hey, I’m on a budget, I don’t want to be signing up for a bunch of subscriptions. I found this envelope app which is perfect. It’s just very simple and basic and is perfect for what I need. It keeps me from having to use pen and paper to keep track of my monthly budget. Thank you to the developer.

  • Awesome app!

    This is a great budgeting tool! Super simple and easy to use. The only missing feature is home screen widgets—it would be great to be able to track different envelopes directly from my home screen, rather than having to open the app.

  • Exactly What I’ve Been Looking For

    I’ve been looking for a budgeting app that helps me visualize my bills in an envelope-style system. This app is nearly perfectly; no subscription, no bank account connection, no frills. The only addition I’d like to see would be the ability to type in notes for individual envelopes.

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the review. Excellent idea for a new feature.
  • Works great!

    Simple to use. Very hands on, just like a real cash envelope. You can rename or delete individual envelopes. Edit transactions. Set up quick transactions though dollar amount is left blank. You can even move the envelopes around so they are in the order you prefer. It allows cents and negative balances. Since it doesn’t sync with anything, no need for internet connection. Best of all, it is free!
