What's New in Beacon Budget

v0.15.2+260

July 30, 2026

This release brings home-screen widgets, a faster way to find your bank, plus a round of reliability fixes for Free-to-Spend, Activity, and reports. What's new • Home-screen widgets: See your Free-to-Spend right from your home screen, without opening the app. • New plans and upgrade flow: Choose between Essentials and Premium tiers in a redesigned upgrade flow. Improvements • Bank picker: Search for your bank by name, so you can find and connect accounts faster. • More reliable syncing: We rebuilt how transactions sync from your bank. Pending charges now settle into their posted versions more cleanly, and transactions that drop off your bank are cleared out correctly. Bug fixes • Free-to-Spend: No longer reverts to an old value after you edit buckets, update a widget, or switch budgets. • Reports: "Last month," "last quarter," and "last year" ranges now include the full final day, and the income chart respects the filters you've set. • Buckets: Bucket group reordering now saves, and deleted groups no longer linger. • Notifications: Taps once again open the right screen when app lock is on. • Rules: Creating a rule no longer over-matches by splitting the merchant name into stray keywords. • Categories: Manually set transaction categories now stay put across bank syncs.

Broken

Latest update broke transactions and there is no where to give feedback that gets any responses. App has been unusable for 2 days now

The best one!

This is my absolute favorite budgeting app!

Best Simple Dupe

This is the best Simple dupe in the App Store. If you don’t know what Simple was, it was an online bank and digital envelope style budgeting app that was incredible, especially for neurodivergent folks. This app takes things to the next level by allowing multiple accounts to be added like bank accounts or credit cards. While there is a fee, I do feel like it is worth it to make sure the app stays up and running. I hope the developer continues to make updates for many many years. I don’t know how I would manage my money of it wasn’t for DAS Budget.

Love it!

Couldn’t live without this app! It is my simple bank replacement!

Beware

I’ve been using this app for years. Out of nowhere it started changing how much it earmarks for certain bills. For example, my rent is 2170 and has been for years. It started just earmarking half that. Same with my cell phone bill, and 60% others. I tried deleting the bill and readding it and it will only pull half. I make ample money and have plenty in the accounts. If I don’t have money saved elsewhere this would have been disastrous for me. Do not rely on this app to be accurate. I sent out an email for tech support and have not heard back. Find a different app if you need to rely on this.

Response from developer

Hi! Thanks for your feedback and sorry for the mix-up. There was a bug in our recent update that caused some bill amounts to show incorrectly, but it’s now fixed and should match your actual bills. We really appreciate you using the app and hope it’s back on track for you!
