## What is Hearth?

Finally, a budget you and your partner will both actually use.

Hearth is envelope budgeting built for couples: simple enough that you'll both stick with it. Create shared envelopes for groceries, bills, dining, and savings. Both partners see the same budget in real time, log expenses from either phone, and always know what's left before they spend. Type purchases in yourself, or connect your bank and just approve what comes in.

WHY COUPLES CHOOSE HEARTH
- NEW: Carry forward: unspent money rolls into next month instead of resetting to zero

- NEW: Check-in rhythm: see if you're on pace for the week, the fortnight, or the half month

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-08-20*

Easy to use and understand. Especially love the aesthetic and UI.

### 5/5 — Best Couple Budgeting App

*2026-08-13*

My partner and I LOVE this app! It has helped us be more financially responsible and organized while making it enjoyable! You can directly link your bank if you’d like or enter transactions in manually—which is what my partner and I do. The interface is very easy to navigate and the design is very clean and aesthetically pleasing. There’s an AI spending analysis as well as other neat features built in. Every time we spend a dime there’s always a, “Have you logged it in Hearth yet?” It has became a daily tool! Props to the Developer, Marcin, for being accommodating to feedback. Very impressed to say the least!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.8.0 — 2026-08-22

Envelopes now know what they're for. Mark one Fixed for bills that don't move, Variable for everyday spending, or Savings with a goal amount and a date. Whatever you don't spend now rolls into next month instead of resetting to zero. Set a check-in rhythm and every envelope shows whether you're on pace for the week, the fortnight, or the half month. Insights can be filtered to one partner, so you can see your own spending rather than the household total. Recurring bills got a clearer setup screen, and getting started is quicker.

### 1.7.4 — 2026-07-31

Scan receipts faster. The camera now finds the receipt's edges and crops it automatically, no more lining up the shot yourself. Got a long receipt? Capture it in a few sections and we'll stitch it together. We also redesigned the confirm screen to make reviewing and assigning items quicker. Plus small fixes.
