Awesome budget app

I’m typically pretty good about setting a budget in terms of knowing my monthly bills, but I always had trouble trying to budget for any extra costs, such as eating out or buying something extra. This app is great in that it allows you to set your monthly income and expenses, and then tells you how much extra you have each day based on those factors. It is also very simple to use and has a nice, clean interface. I personally am a very visual person, and being able to have my main page on blue (indicating I didn’t overspend my allowance for that day) gives me a sense of accomplishment at the end of each day. You do have to manually input any extra spending that you do outside of what you pre-set, but again, the simple design of the app makes this very quick and easy to do. The main features of the app are also free, with the option to purchase extras such as graphs and extra icons which show details of where your money is going. This allows you to see if you are maybe spending to much on, say, fast food each month. I would highly recommend this to anyone, especially college students like myself who are on a tight budget.

We sincerely appreciate your detailed review and high recommendations and will do our best to keep improving Daily Budget and making it even more visual in future updates!

A fantastic, useful app

I’m a student and I use this app to make sure I don’t spend too much out of my savings while still being able to afford monthly subscriptions like Netflix or an extended care plan for my laptop.
Being able to add extra income as and when is also incredibly useful, and being able to distribute it to a set date is perfect for spreading my maintenance loan across an entire term.
In terms of improvement? I really have nothing to say, the developers seem to think of and incorporate improvements before I even realise it would be useful!

Great daily spending app

This is a very simple and effective budgeting app. Really gives me the confidence of knowing when I can and can’t spend my money. Would absolutely recommend it.

Thank you very much for your high opinion, we are excited that you consider our app great!

Love this app

I was looking for something to help me get my finances in order this year. There are other apps that charge a monthly subscription or connect to your bank account and that seemed my only choice and then I found Daily Budget. It’s already changed my spending habits as I just need to check the app to see if I can really afford that next purchase. I bought the full version (one time payment) within ten minutes as I knew it was just what I had been looking for. In the future I hope they add a category for Charity donations.

I like the app but...

There are a couple things I wish could be changed. One of those things is I’d like to change the breakdown of my recurring expenses into weeks rather than days as I’m not paid daily and it would help me more if I could see how much I need to save every week to pay something like rent. Another key feature I’d love to see implemented is the ability to do savings in both dollar and percentage amounts (for instance if I wanted to put away $500 into savings rather than 25% exactly). I’d also like to have the ability to have multiple portions of my income that I can save the same as my primary savings. Other than that I love this app. I bought premium features an hour into using it. The UI is a little buggy (but I’m using an iPhone 6 so what app isn’t) but it’s simple to use and overall it’s a very pleasant experience. Adding expenses and extra incomes (I’m a carpenter so I take side jobs all the time and this comes in handy to have) is a breeze. Id give it a 5/5 if the few features up above were changed/added. Overall very nicely done.

Thanks a lot for reaching out! At the moment you can switch your cycle to weekly under Settings > Cycle settings > Edit cycles by tapping the cycle, turning off “Monthly” and setting cycle duration to 7 and watch your weekly budget under Analysis > Overview > Budget left. If you wish to set a fixed saving amount instead of a percentage, please, kindly tap the button below the scale on the Savings screen and enter your fixed amount. As to the ability to have multiple portions of your income - could you kindly explain it in more detail at "support@dailybudget.de"?

Great app - just know how to use it best!

TIP: Be sure to set your cycle for the month to the first day you get paid that month, then set expenses to “cycle” so that they align with one month of your paychecks.

As a financial analyst, I like how this app is more manual. This app is great for me since I split expenses with my roommates - and when our expenses to each other balance out, we don’t have to pay each other. So, apps like Mint and others show I’m spending all my money on groceries, when that same $150 may be for other things.

It may seem like effort, but it’s the best app for making you conscious of your actual spending, and to help you see what you should set as budgets for different spending categories.

Great app! Only wish it had one more feature...

This app is great for someone like me, who has a TON of bills and very little money reserved for general spending purposes, essentially living paycheck to paycheck with the exception of putting money in savings for a rainy day/emergency fund. In addition to using this app, I created a personal monthly budget to show me where I would stand during different times of the month since my bills/paychecks don’t always line up the same way so I could see a more accurate depiction of the amount of money I could spend before my next paycheck. It would be great if you could enter a beginning balance on this app, and have it take into consideration your current balance and the date your bills are projected to come out when calculating your true daily budget availability. Otherwise, no complaints. Thanks for creating this awesome, free tool!
