Budget365 answers one question every month: how much is left? Set what you planned, watch what you spent, read the difference. Spending is split into four blocks you can tell apart at a glance: fixed, flexible, non-monthly and savings goals. THE MONTH AT A GLANCE • Planned amounts per line, effective from the month you set. • Spent amounts updated with every transaction, with overspent categories highlighted. • Carry-over: what is left (or missing) shows up in the following month. • Month, Year and All-time views. AS A COUPLE • Who paid for what, and the settle-up between you two, without a spreadsheet. • Each of you sees your own share; the numbers always match. EVERYTHING ELSE, IN ONE PLACE • Non-monthly expenses set aside little by little. • Savings goals with their target. • Mortgage and loans: principal, interest and your ownership share of the home. • Net worth: accounts, securities and debts in a single series over time. • Recurring transactions (salary, rent, subscriptions) entered once. • Bank statement import. • A widget to add an expense or income in one tap. BUILT FOR READING NUMBERS • Light, dark or system theme. • An option to hide amounts when others can see your screen. • All calculations are done by the server, so screens never disagree. Budget365 organises your numbers. It gives no investment advice and does not connect to your bank account.
