Allocated
Read full descriptionHide full description
Allocated is a simple, private monthly budget planner that's easy to use. Instead of linking your bank or tracking every transaction, you simply set what comes in and what goes out each month - and Allocated shows you what's left over. NO BANK CONNECTION Most budget apps make you link a bank account before you can do anything. Allocated doesn't. There's nothing to connect and no third-party access to your finances - you just type in your income and outgoings. It works exactly the same whoever you bank with. COMPLETELY FREE No subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads, no locked "pro" features. Everything is free - no catch, no upsell. WHAT YOU CAN DO โข Set your income and recurring outgoings for the month โข See your "left over" at a glance, with a clear allocated-vs-free bar โข Break spending down by category, with percentages and a donut chart โข Give every outgoing a category, colour and icon โข Handle real-life schedules: a fixed date, the last day of the month, "last Friday", weekly or fortnightly, or a one-off BUILT AROUND YOUR MONTH Allocated keeps a separate plan for each month. Open a new month and your recurring income and outgoings carry forward automatically, so you start from where you left off - one-offs stay in the month they belong to. Past months stay frozen as history. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything you enter stays on your device. Allocated has no accounts and no servers, so your budget is never uploaded, shared, sold, or tracked. We can't see it, and neither can anyone else. Export a backup any time as a simple file you control. SIMPLE BY DESIGN Light and dark themes, a choice of currency symbols, and a clean, uncluttered layout that's easy to use and stays out of your way. Allocated is a budget planner, not a bank connection or a transaction tracker - there's nothing to link and nothing to sign up for. Just open it and plan.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Allocated at every 3 days against CBP's monthly. CBP's advantage is iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
