What's New in Zerobased

1.0.5

September 27, 2026

What's new in this update: - Faster start-up – your budget loads quicker after you log in. - Log spending in one tap – tap the + on any budget category to add an expense, and see right away how much you have left in that category. - Simpler logging – no more choosing an account for every expense. - Pending purchases – bank purchases now appear as soon as they're pending and update automatically when they post. - Smarter bank sync – better automatic categories, credit card payments are no longer counted as spending, and reconnecting a bank no longer creates duplicates. - Up-to-date balances – connected bank accounts refresh their balances each time they sync, and every account shows when it was last updated. - Safer budget edits – removing a category keeps your past transactions and their history. - Start over with confidence – "Redo budget" now shows a clear warning first, and in a shared household only the household owner can use it. - Reports now match spending to the right categories. - Plus many other fixes and improvements.

Finally! And app that actually works!

Finally! A budgeting app that actually works for the average person.

I’ve tried so many budgeting apps and this is the first one that actually feels like it was built for how people really get paid and spend money.

The last thing I want to do is sit there all day entering every little expense. This app makes it so much faster with these quick select expenses, and I can rename them to how I actually think about my expenses.

My favourite feature is how it tracks my pay check and runs my budget around how I actually get paid instead of forcing everything into a calendar month. I get so annoyed when other apps say I am over budget when I am not! My pay doesn’t land on the first of the month.

There is a lot more cool features but those are my top. One’s.

Good job guys! I love it!
