BudgetBox Envelopes vs Tap to Tick

Keep monthly spending organized with a simple envelope-style budget. BudgetBox lets you create one budget plan and divide it into boxes, each with its own name, icon, color, and planned monthly amount. SEE YOUR MONTH • Check planned, spent, and remaining amounts for every box, with a progress bar and an “Over planned” tag when spending exceeds the plan. • View income logged this month, total planned expenses, spending so far, and remaining in the month summary. • Tap a box to see its entries for that month. LOG BY HAND • Record expenses, income, and refunds with an amount, date, box, and optional note. • Use “Repeat last transaction” to refill the entry form. • Swipe to delete an entry. Refunds reduce a box’s spent amount; income appears in the month summary. MAKE IT YOUR OWN • Choose from four starter templates with editable example amounts: Family Basics, Student, Cash Envelope Lite, and Freelancer Lite. • Try a sample budget with four boxes and three entries. • Drag boxes to reorder them, or swipe to archive a box. • Check the Review tab for this month’s planned-versus-spent figures and top five boxes by spending. The review is descriptive only. • Turn on an optional weekly or monthly check-in reminder. PREMIUM — ONE-TIME LIFETIME UNLOCK • Add as many boxes as you want. • Browse any past or future month. • Export all entries as CSV through the iOS share sheet, or import CSV entries in the same format. Without Premium, your plan supports up to eight active boxes, and the Month tab lets you browse the previous, current, and next month. YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE All budget data is stored only on this iPhone or iPad. There’s no account, sign-in, tracking, or data collection, and no cloud sync. BudgetBox is for personal organization and recordkeeping, not financial advice or official guidance.

Tap to Tick is the fastest way to track where your money goes — on your own or shared with the one person who spends from the same pot as you. LOG A PURCHASE IN SECONDS Open the app (or the lock-screen widget, or ask Siri) and tap in the amount. Pick a category with one tap. Done. No sign-up, no linking your bank, no ads. SHARE ONE BUDGET Invite your partner with a single link. From then on you both see and edit the exact same purchases, categories, and account balances. Every entry shows who logged it, and you can get a quiet notification the moment they add one — so the budget is never a surprise. SEE THE WHOLE MONTH AT A GLANCE A clean overview shows what you've spent, what came in, and how each category is tracking against its monthly budget. A spending-by-category ring makes it obvious where the money went. ACCOUNTS THAT ADD UP Keep Checking, Savings, or any accounts you like. Income, card purchases, ATM cash, and transfers between accounts all update the right balance automatically. Merge two accounts into one whenever your setup changes — the history and balances combine cleanly. CASH, TOO Take out ATM cash and spend it down with "paid with cash" purchases. Your wallet balance stays honest alongside your bank accounts. SET IT AND FORGET IT Add recurring items — rent, paychecks, subscriptions — once, and they post themselves each month. PRIVATE BY DESIGN There is no Tap to Tick account and no server we can see. Your budget lives on your device and syncs through your own private iCloud. We can't read your data, and there are no trackers or ads. You can export everything to a spreadsheet, or wipe every trace from the app and iCloud, at any time. Also included: Apple Watch app, home-screen and lock-screen widgets, Siri shortcuts, and search across your whole history.
