My one wish is that the transactions would start with today and go to the future as you scroll down, not the opposite. ### 4/5 — Best app so far *2026-01-19* Been using this app for a loooong time - since 2018 or possibly earlier. Love the revamp look as interface looked old for ages. But I hope changes with the look won’t be too often. I wish it could sync with macbook apps so I can post entries from my macbook as well. Other than that, it’s a great app ### 3/5 — Great app *2026-01-05* Used this for years for one account & recently started tracking a couple of others. It’s a brilliant app. My only suggestion for an improvement would be to make syncing data between devices much simpler… it would be nice to be able to enter/edit transactions on my phone & my tablet, but I can’t be faffed with import/export of files - I just want all installed apps to automatically sync to the last updated version of the transactions record. Is this possible? Edit: obviously not! The iOS 26 version doesn’t seem much different, save a new look. I’m finding that future & recurring transactions are dancing around on the dates, especially when I change the time on my phone to the local time of where I am (eg India last week & 27 transactions shifted by a day). Not the end of the world but it should be better. ### 3/5 — Disappointed *2026-01-05* Have been using this brilliant app for years with no problems at all, but the latest update makes everything much more difficult to navigate & read. It might be something to do with the latest iOS update which is a total disaster, but I wish I could revert back to the previous version of visual budget. ### 4/5 — Intuitif et pratique! *2025-12-24* Moi qui me lamentais de ne pouvoir faire ma compta que sur mon pc et les contraintes qui vont avec, me voilà comblé! Personnalisation des champs, multicomptes avec transferts inter comptes possibles, récurrences, graphiques synthétiques, elle vaut sans problème son prix tant son utilisation vous fera faire des économies! À espérer pour ma part: une version Pc avec synchronisation entre les deux, et une vision à terme choisi de l'état du compte. En effet, si vous programmez vos récurrences le 15, vous ne le verrez qu'à cette date. Un affichage de solde de fin de mois permettrait de savoir de suite la part restante. J'ai contourné le problème en intégrant toutes les récurrences au 1er du mois. Mise à jour fin 2025: dommage que l’application ne sache toujours pas exploiter les scans pour pré remplir les champs. Un ticket CB, date, montant, bénéficiaire, une ia basique n’a aucun problème à reconnaître ces champs et abreuver une base de données. Je suis prêt à payer en sus une mise à jour optionnelle pour cela. ### 3/5 — iCloud export no longer works *2025-10-05, version 1.78* It starts exporting then crashes back to home screen before uploading. ### 5/5 — Still the most effective and simplest budget/cash flow app. *2025-09-10, version 1.78* Been using Visual Budget for more than a few years now to manage my money. Once set up it is very easy to keep up to date, matching the bank account to the Visual Budget transaction list. If you do it frequently i’s a trivial task. For me, the most useful functions are the transaction list that keeps my spending close to plan and the future cash flow graph that I use to see how much float is going to be in the account and whether or not I can afford a purchase and how much I can extract to savings. Manual Backup to iCloud is easy. Would be nice if it was automatic. ### 5/5 — Best App for Budgeting *2025-05-29* I have had this app since July 2012. It has helped keep track of my limited finances. Absolutely love it. Had another one before this but this one has more options. I am happy it is not connected to my bank account. More private this way. I recommended it to someone else who also uses it. Best thing I did. I highly recommend a budgeting app to track finances, especially this one. Thank you for developing it. ### 5/5 — Best budgeting app *2025-03-30* I love than I can create several accounts to manage my expenses while creating a new group for savings accounts. ### 4/5 — Simple et efficace *2025-03-04* Très bonne appli de gestion de comptes bancaires que j’utilise au quotidien depuis plusieurs années. Reflète très exactement le relevé de compte de ma banque, mais qui me permet en plus de me projeter en avant de façon à anticiper mes finances. Cette application est également visible sur iPad. Depuis 2024, j’ai opté pour une autre application de gestion de compte. Je regrette en effet de ne pas pouvoir faire mes comptes à la fois sur mon ordinateur fixe (Windows 11) et mes iPhone et iPad. Cela est regrettable, car l’interface de visualiser budget est mieux que mon autre application. Si cette modification était possible à votre niveau, je reviendrais vers vous avec plaisir ! ### 3/5 — Love this app! *2025-02-15, version 1.78* I find this app extremely useful!! It helps me keep track of my spending and upcoming expenses!! And it’s SO easy to use! I don’t use a checkbook anymore, so this app is a must!! As of 02/15/2025, I am having trouble with this app and I couldn’t find a way to get help. When I do a search on the Account page, it switches me to the Category page! To find a particular transaction that is several months old, I had to thumb through many entries to find the one I was looking for! I hope you can fix this problem soon! ### 5/5 — Me simplifica la vida *2025-01-07, version 1.78* Tengo diferentes cuentas y me gusta saber en qué gasto mi dinero. No lo hace automáticamente pero la transacción hay que entrarlas manualmente. Pero para mi cumple su cometido sin nada complicado y me gusta ### 5/5 — The Best App *2025-01-01, version 1.78* Best budgeting app used for years! ### 5/5 — Best Budget App *2024-09-13, version 1.78* I use this daily!! Easier than quicken! Keeps financial records in order! This is very convenient! I love the fact you can take pictures of the receipts! ### 5/5 — Tolle App aber.... *2024-08-08* ich würde mir mehr Flexibilität bei den Ausdrucken wünschen, denn z.B. beim Ausdruck der Transaktionen nach Rubriken wäre ein Landscapemodus besser, weil dann die Bemerkungen zu jeder Buchung nicht abgeschnitten wären. ### 5/5 — Une véritable maîtrise de son budget *2024-05-19* J’en ai essayé beaucoup, mais c’est vraiment cette appli qui se démarque très nettement. Son énorme avantage est de pouvoir faire une gestion prévisionnelle facile et précise de son atterrissage budgétaire à la fin du mois. On peut l’utiliser de façon basique pour suivre ses dépenses tout comme se servir de fonctions plus sophistiquées comme par exemple le suivi de plusieurs comptes avec transferts ou gérer la période entre la réception de son salaire et le début du mois suivant. Un vrai couteau suisse. Je l’utilise depuis presque 10 ans. ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2024-04-22, version 1.78* Luv this app have been using most days for years. Thought I lost it when phone had to be reset to factory settings but got it back, panic over. Is my favourite App so useful xx ### 5/5 — Отличная программа *2024-03-15* Отличная программа. Но было бы не плохо если бы доработали отчеты ### 5/5 — Супер *2024-02-05* Отлично работает, есть все необходимое. Пользуюсь несколько лет ### 5/5 — Works well for me *2023-10-30* Looking at retiring soon so I needed to know where our money goes. This app works well for me. I like that it doesn't connect to my bank account (another app wanted me to enter my acct # and password!). The FAQ helped when shaping the accounts and categories to suit my life. Took me a while to work through it but I have great hope by Dec. I'll know how much I'll need to retire. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Sad :( *2021-11-01, version 1.73* I have used this app for a couple of years and it’s been great I really rely on it. Since yesterday the app has broken! The app won’t open AT ALL and it’s not working on my mums phone either. Very upset and stressed because I rely on this app for my finances Have emailed the company and no reply ### 1/5 — Problème de restore *2021-07-06, version 1.73* J’aimais vraiment beaucoup cette application mais je suis incapable de faire un restore in-app purchase donc depuis que j’ai changé d’appareil je ne peux plus l’utiliser. ### 1/5 — Need update *2020-12-17, version 1.70* Please bring the transactions per day/month feature back. It helps me view and manage my budget in advance. ### 1/5 — 入出金処理が出来なくなってる *2020-12-14* 突然各口座の入出金処理が出来なくなってる 有料アプリでこれは無いやろ！改善求める ### 1/5 — Bad update *2020-12-12, version 1.70* The last update removed the calendar feature which I used daily. No longer happy with my purchase. Please bring back the calendar ### 1/5 — Latest update removes useful feature *2020-12-06, version 1.69* The latest update has removed the ability to review all transactions at a glance on a certain date, at group overview level. This pretty much renders this app useless to me as I have 17 accounts in my group. Going through each of these accounts individually to check for transactions on a certain date just isn’t practical. ### 1/5 — Ugh *2019-10-06* Used this app for so many years and love it but don’t love the latest update! Why??? Adding a new transaction and it goes through two screens to take you to the category screen, which you don’t need if you’re regularly using the app! By adding the dollar value and place of transaction the category is automatically entered based on your history. What a time wasting step to now have to enter the category manually 🤦‍♀️ ### 1/5 — Visual Budget is a Visual Lemon *2019-01-03, version 1.50* I’ve used different money app for many years and loved it but it’s not supported after IOS11. I’ve not yet found a replacement that’s as good and this is just another to be sent to the app graveyard. This app is not intuitive and lacks the basic feature to transfer between your accounts. The upgrade price of $13 is exorbitant! I use another of Kiwi Objects apps (Gas Manager) and it is great but Visual Budget is an app I wouldn’t recommend. ### 1/5 — Nice app; bad support when I needed it *2018-02-06, version 1.45* I purchased the app years ago and used it fine. When I needed support later, I sent an email for help. The person didn’t even read the email thoroughly and told me to try the things I already said I tried. When I pointed that out, he become rude and condescending. I stopped using the app since. There are many products out there for what I need. I didn’t see the need to deal with with this one. ### 1/5 — Don't Get this! *2016-11-05* The app is horrible to use and not suited for any accounting purposes! They say it's free for a day with AppOfTheDay but that is not true. U only get the free trial version and u have to buy it with inapp purchases..!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Mon application de finances préférée depuis 2013! *2026-07-08* J’utilise Visual Budget depuis 2013 et, après toutes ces années, elle demeure de loin mon application préférée pour gérer mes finances personnelles. J’adore la possibilité de classer chacune de mes transactions dans des catégories et des sous-catégories personnalisées. Cela rend le suivi de mes dépenses extrêmement simple et bien organisé. Les graphiques et les statistiques sont excellents. Voir l’évolution de mes finances au fil du temps m’aide vraiment à comprendre où va mon argent et à mieux gérer mon budget. L’application est complète, intuitive et incroyablement fiable. Après plus de 10 ans d’utilisation, je peux dire qu’elle m’a accompagné au quotidien et qu’elle vaut largement ses 5 étoiles. Merci aux développeurs pour cet excellent travail! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ### 5/5 — Update: Its now been 10 years still using the App *2026-05-14* Update: It's now been 10 years since I started using the App. I have tried others but thay don't have what is needed for my budgeting each month. I still give it 5 stars. Guess I will continue using it as long as I live… Or it keeps getting updated? I have been using Visual Budget on my IPhone for 3 years. For me it’s perfect for my needs. I keep track of all my banking information by inputting reoccurring bills at the beginning of each month. I know the total day by day as I input other transactions as I make them. It lets me know how much money I have in my account even before my bank let’s me know. So at anytime I can look and see how much money I will have at the end of the month to the penny. I would never dream of using another App. I have never had a single problem I love this App. ### 5/5 — Доработка *2026-01-03* Очень много лет пользуюсь приложением, все устраивает. Но видимо после обновления пропал калькулятор при вводе новой операции, верните, пожалуйста! И еще хотелось бы видеть расходы в день, в приложении на маке такое есть, на айфоне отсутствует( ### 5/5 — Great budgeting app! *2025-12-30, version 1.80* I have been using this app since 2016 and it has been helpful in tracking my expenses and income. It is user friendly and the upgrade to pro is worth it. You get access to more features. This app is a keeper. ### 5/5 — Great Budget/ Finance manager *2025-12-27, version 1.80* Thanks for update! Used for ten years. Use it daily. Does it all. Highly recommend. I’ve never needed a switch. ### 5/5 — Great, with one comment *2025-12-27, version 1.80* Great app, and very convenient. My comment is that I hope you can bring back the “adding calculator” which was removed after the recent update ### 5/5 — Great customer service *2025-12-25* Been using this app for years. The recent update in the app brought a nice refresh, but in the process it made one thing a little harder to read. I submitted a suggestion to change in the app to support iOS dark mode and literally within minutes I got a reply that tell look into my suggestions. Within minutes again, they sent another email stating they will change the request I submitted along within a screenshot. Within 42 mins my suggestion has been heard and will be implemented on the next update! Besides being a super app to use to keep track of my expenses, it also has excellent customer service! Thank you for an outstanding job. ### 5/5 — Does what I need it for. *2025-12-17* Been using the app since 2012, does everything I want. ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2025-10-01, version 1.78* Tried several different budget apps and this was by far the best. Very easy to use. Lots of options. Extremely happy with it. ### 5/5 — Beste Finanz App *2025-09-17* Sehr übersichtlich und einfach zu bedienen. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
