Budget Touch

should have a light or demo version... feeling ripped off... not very iOS-like either... :( @stormychel

I have had the desktop app for close to 12 years and I love it… that said the iOS app has its problems… 1. Currently it crashes multiple times (read a dozen at least) every time I try to log an expenditure… I messaged support and have received no response. It happens to both my phone and my wife’s phone, I had an iPhone 6s and upgraded to 12 mini and it crashes all the same. 2. The wifi sync works fine it just would be nice if there were a server/iCloud type option.

Given that this is a paid app, and given that I paid for it in order to keep track of my budget when I’m away from my computer, I shouldn’t have to be constantly fighting to get it to sync. It crashes way too often, and requests for help from Snowmint are completely ignored.

I love this app and have been using it for years. But there’s been a relatively recent update that has introduced some problems. The app crashes all the time now. Never had that problem before. A friend who also uses this app is having the same problem. I’m on iPhone 10 running latest IOS. Also, the bottom envelope now drops below the screen view, and you can’t open it without a lot of tries, because it’s mostly off the screen and can’t be selected. Another problem is on the actions screen the top most selection is now right up against the iPhone’s black space, difficult to select. Please please fix this app! It’s a 5-star app that has suddenly developed serious problems.

Works fine!!

This app could use a graphical update to take advantage of the iPhone X. It’s been over three years since the last update. Love to see an option to make the font size smaller. The app works fine but I think the developers have either all died or quit their jobs. So much for free updates for life. LOL

I’ve been using this budget app for years and it works. The envelope method is a proven system whether it’s “real” envelopes or the electronic kind. I use both the macOS and the iOS versions and keep them in sync. Either version stand alone is great but I prefer planning at the desktop and keeping up to date on the road with the iPhone.

I have been using the desktop version of Budget for a few years now. I really love the program but the major downfall of this app is that you can't sync between devices unless you have the program open and are hooked up to wifi. I admit I don't use this app as much as I probably should but the fact is that when I am out and about and I spend money from one category and my husband spends money from that same category, there is no way to sync that envelope. Every month I have to make major adjustments to my envelopes because we overspent in different categories. I am not at my desktop every day and usually only balance my desktop budget about every two weeks. I started using another budgeting app (YNAB) that syncs between devices in real-time, but the features in that other program seem elementary compared to the Budget desktop version. I would definitely give it 5+ stars if there was a way to sync between my phone and my husband's phone.

Please add Touch ID to make it awesome!

I've been using this app for almost two years. We do a monthly budget every month, and this app enables us to manage our money within the budget. I used various excel spreadsheets and tried several other apps before settling on this one. It does everything we need for it to do. It is customizable, and it syncs between our desktop, laptop and iPads. We have been following the Dave Ramsey plan for over four years, and this app has been very instrumental in helping us reach our goals. I've never written an app review before, but this app is truly outstanding. Love, love, love it! Edited 05/16: I have now gone from Windows to Mac version. The Mac version required a little time to learn, but it is even better than the Windows version which I thought was awesome. Now set up with three bank accounts, and it works great. I have contacted support a few times during the transition, and the support is wonderful.
