It offers support for budgeting, and allows analysis of your expenses and income, including charts and graphs. Two key differentiating features of HomeBudget are: 1. Integrated set of features.

Once setup, the devices sync with each other automatically over the air. Family Sync works across all features including Bills and Accounts.
