Pretty freaking awesome
This app is amazing. It's not complicated, it's not super fancy and distracting, and I like that there's no ridiculous summary graphs on it. I feel like those are just a waste of space, and I never refer to them anyway. The ads are bearable bc it's only a little banner at the bottom and you forget they're there. There are no pop-up ads. It does the calculations for you automatically, and it sums up your total income, your total expenses, how much you've paid so far, and what you have left over at the end of every month. It's awesome. The only thing I wish they'd add to it is another person option. My husband and I keep our money and bills separate, and it would be nice to be able to switch over to his finances and see how we're doing. Other than that, I HIGHLY recommend it.
Unfortunately I had to lower the stars. This app used to be great. But it is bugging out so badly now. The names of expenses/income keep going blank. Bars are appearing in random spots as I scroll. The total expenses/income at the bottom keeps disappearing and reappearing. And then I get asked to upgrade. NO lol fix your free version first 🤦♀️

Love the simplicity.
I have tried at least two other budget apps and they both gave me and my spouse headaches. They were just too complicated and involved too many steps to manually update my budget. Fudget is much simpler. My only gripes are that I wish I could mark part of a budget item as paid (like if I only spent $100 on a $400 grocery budget) and I wish there were more colours but I don’t think those are big enough complaints to warrant the loss of a star.
The only downside is that my spouse has updated to the latest version of iOS and so her balance bar has disappeared. Mine is still there because I’m on a lower version and not planning on updating anytime soon because of that.
We emailed them about the issue and they responded back saying that the app can’t be updated without deleting everyone’s data and that they’re working on Fudget 2. I hope that’s soon because I really like Fudget 1.

Want to love it…
After seeing the five star reviews, I did not hesitate to download this app. It is easy enough to get started with and most importantly there is no account setup requirement and I don’t have to sync to my bank account. I also like there is no subscription and the one time purchase price is good. These are the features I love. The problem I am having, is trying to swipe left to edit the budget name is really wonky. It doesn’t consistently respond when trying to swipe on a budget to change the name or to access the delete option. This is frustrating and ruins an otherwise hopeful budget app. I would easily give it five stars and purchase the pro version were it not for this concern. Maybe it will get fixed.
Update: The problems stated above have been fixed. It is a worthy app! So far best I have discovered. It would be nice to have a feature to separate out savings or other types of funds (like emergency fund or new dress fund) from the running balance. This would make it easier to compare balance in Fudget to my actual checking account without having to subtract. But this is not a deal breaker, but would easily take it to the next level.

Cannot Recommend App Enough
I’ve been looking all over for a good, simple budgeting app. All of the ones we have nowadays are extremely complicated, and often do not allow you to keep track of more than one budget. I actually did find one I liked a couple of years ago, but because it had such little traffic the developers had to wrap it up and take it down. I really hope that doesn’t happen with this one! I’m in my early 20s, and doing my best to develop good spending habits.
This app is straightforward, effective, and easy to understand. I love that I can set up multiple budgets to keep my eye on without having to pay a bunch of subscriptions. In fact, once I save up a little bit of money, I plan to buy the one time payment for the full app experience (the payment is definitely not a lot! It’s less than $10. I’m just a very broke 20 year old haha)! That’s how pleased I am with this app!! I hope more people will be able to find this app and also support the developer :)

I love this ~ a lot
Multiple budgets with a running total let’s you drag and drop items and see how it affects your budget & if there’s enough to cover what’s due and when it’s able to be paid. Also use it it to track current balance due on monthly payment accounts without having to log into the account to see where you stand. Tried a lot of budgeting apps that were more trouble to use than functional. This does everything you need without over complicating things with potentials, maybes, suggestions, pointless charts. Everything in this is designed for simplicity and accuracy.
It also makes a useful basic checking account register.
