thisAppBudget vs Split My Paycheck

thisAppBudget is a zero-based budget which means that every dollar of income will be applied to an expense. No dollar left behind. This approach to budgeting has been proven successful.

Split My Paycheck is the simplest way to divide your income into a working budget. Pick a proven template, allocate every dollar across buckets, log expenses in seconds, and watch your plan come to life — all in one clean, straightforward app. No accounts. No ads. No bank syncing. Just the budget you've been meaning to build. BUDGET TEMPLATES Start with a proven framework instead of staring at a blank spreadsheet. Choose from 50/30/20, 70/20/10, 60/30/10, and other widely-used budget templates. Each template auto-populates buckets and percentages so you can have a working budget in under a minute. Customize from there as your finances evolve. EVERY DOLLAR HAS A JOB Allocate your income across buckets — Needs, Wants, Savings, and any custom categories you add. The donut at the top shows what's allocated and what's left. Watch your percentages adjust in real time as you fine-tune until every dollar of your paycheck has a purpose. EXPENSE TRACKING Log expenses in seconds against any bucket. The Expenses tab shows running totals against your allocations so you always know what's remaining versus what's spent. No bank syncing, no transaction approval queues — just fast, intentional logging that keeps you in control. LEARN AS YOU GO Built-in tutorials walk you through how to use the app, what each feature does, and how to think about budgeting categories. Whether this is your first budget or your fifth attempt, the in-app guides meet you where you are.
