What's New in Simple Self Budget
1.4.0
August 27, 2026
Spending analysis, on your device. Pro now reads back your month or year in plain words: where the money went, what changed, an unusually large charge, a subscription you never marked as recurring. Ask it a question and it answers from your own numbers. It runs on Apple Intelligence on your device, so nothing is uploaded and nothing goes to an AI company. Also in this release: • Choose what a tapped suggestion fills in. Category and amount now come along with the description, and Settings decides which. • Cards have real contrast in Dark Mode. • The trend chart counts every expense again. Longer ranges used to drop most of them, so the line never added up to the total above it. • All Time now means all time, instead of quietly stopping at three years. • Chart labels no longer overlap, at any text size.
