This app is very user-friendly, and easy to use. Though it needs to connect to the internet to reflect input data on records. It would also be neat if the app had a notes feature. It also does not log all the expenses past a particular time. But, all in all, 5 stars because it does not have any bait charges, ad-free, and a huge help for everyday budgeting.

It's very simple and convenient budget management tools. I'm using it to manage my budget based on 50/30/20 ratio and i find it easy and efficient. I have multiple other financial management tools but i keep going back to this apps simply because it is quick. I just wish we have the capability to delete or edit existing records in case we are keying the wrong values.

It's a good app, definitely recommend for percentage splitting. However I HATE the fact I can't set any of the jars or move "leftover balance" to $0. I do that for my investment money in relation to my bank and robinhood account. To go around resetting my account for the sake of putting it at zero only for when the next time I get paid and repeat, it's EXTREMELY frustrating and annoying.
