4/5Best I could find
While every other app I tried only gives you half the features you need at most before shoving its premium down your throat Buddy actually provides what you need. It isn’t perfect, for example, I don’t like the pie chart I wish there was an option for a solid one, but I do love the ability to switch between seeing my head categories and my subcategories. I’d also like to see my old transactions and be able to edit them in the same menu that I add new ones, but these are all personal preferences. My only major gripe which I really want updated is that I can’t change the color of the preset categories such as income, interest, and investments. It’s incredibly irritating that when I look at my pie chart a third of it is the exact same color and I can’t tell what individual categories I’m looking at. Despite these minor flaws it’s a great app overall, allowing you to budget how you need with its premium actually being a premium and not a requirement for the most basic of functionality.

1/5Developer does not provide support
I downloaded this app on my iPad and signed in using a regular email. Purchased the premium, then downloaded it on my iPhone and tried to sync my purchase. Nothing. No option to reset password so I read up on it and it states to email support to reset password. I sent two emails and it’s been over a week and a half, no reply from them at all. I do not recommend this for anyone who may have an issue in the future because of this is any indication to their support, it’s non existent. I am filing a claim with Apple with proof of my sent emails with no replies to help me sync my two devices, and possibly even going to contact Discover to charge back on it. I don’t mind paying for anything, but when there’s no assistance when a customer has an issue, I don’t think that company should be allowed to continue to be on this platform. Total rip-off. Bad business. There really are better apps out there with amazing support from the developer, don’t waste your money on this one. It’s all good until you have an issue…. Note to the developer: please don’t bother replying to this review with any fake attempts to finally help. You could’ve done that to the email I sent about two weeks ago.

5/5Best Budgeting App I’ve found
I tried probably close to a dozen budgeting apps/software out there. This has been the easiest to used and has really helped me with saving and managing my spending. I think it’s crucial to use a tool that isn’t so automated when it comes to budgeting apps. This is because making sure you log every purchase makes you much more aware of where your money is going. Anyway, there is a bit of a learning curve for using the app but this isn’t necessarily unique. Specifically, the “Accounts” tab is still taking some getting used to, and I’ve been using the app for about 3 weeks. Transferring money between accounts is still confusing actually. I am hoping for future updates for this product, because it has real potential. Most if not all drawbacks are really inconveniences. I have no large complaints that are keeping me from using it on a daily basis. Use this app, support the developer, and I hope it will get better and better.

4/5I’ve been looking for an app like this for a long time!
It does EXACTLY what I want except… I wish the rollover (which is a feature you don’t have to use if you don’t want to!) was by category so that I can “save up” in certain categories almost like a savings account. For example, I want to have a budget of $50 for gifts that would rollover to the next period so I have $100 the next period. This would help for things like birthdays and holidays! Also the transferring money between accounts is bit confusing. For example, I used a credit card to pay for several things, then eventually I’ll use the money in my checking to pay the card. This can be done as a transfer between accounts, but a transfer requires a category (when all the transactions have already been accounted for in their respective categories!) Maybe an option set as “paying off a card” that doesn’t affect the budget itself? Because it’s not existing debt, but debt accumulated that period. Am I making sense? 😂😅 Regardless, I love this app and even if I have to do something manually, it’s superior to other apps, and the free version is not limiting at all! I’m considering upgrading to the paid version.

5/5Best budget app!
I’m not kidding… I’ve tried other budgeting apps, like Mint, that try to do everything automatically for you. While these features are nice, they try to make you buy things and it isn’t always clear where your money is being spent. This app allows you to customize design your monthly budget, set goals for yourself in your savings account, and most importantly it helps you see where your money is going very easily in a beautiful app. While all the data you insert is manual, it makes you conscious of what you are spending and what accounts it’s coming from rather than other apps that just automatically read your accounts. So if you are going to Starbucks a lot, you will input it into the app and see that you have been there a little too many times and can cut back. It’s a very powerful tool. This app is flexible enough for those who are brand new to having a budget, teens and college students, to those with families and have complicated expenses. It can scale with you. Worth every bit of the 5/5 stars!

As we’re heading into the holiday season, we’ve been doing a bit of last-minute tidying up to make sure Buddy behaves itself while you focus on more important things (like cookies and gift shopping). - Fixed: We squashed some bugs where the currently selected budget wasn’t always being used — for example when creating or importing transactions. That should all be sorted now. - Fixed: The app could crash when enabling demo data. Not very festive — now fixed. - Fixed: Some wallets may have gone missing previously. Good news: they’ve been found and put back where they belong. As always, thank you for using Buddy — and happy holidays!

Happy New Year! We’re starting 2026 with a classic: good old bug fixes and performance improvements. Nothing flashy in this update, but plenty of behind-the-scenes work to keep Buddy fast, stable, and ready for a fresh year of budgeting. Good luck with your budgeting in 2026 — we’re rooting for you! As always, thank you for using Buddy.

Just hanging in there with you in the middle of January — arguably the longest and poorest month of the year. We’ve got a small but important fix to help things feel a bit less painful: - Fixed: Some wallets couldn’t be removed due to an incorrect message saying they were still connected to recurring transactions. That’s been sorted out now. We’ve also made a few under-the-hood improvements to keep everything running smoothly. As always, thank you for using Buddy — and good luck surviving January. You’ve got this!
13.24
February is here — the worst part (January) is officially behind us. To celebrate, we’ve given a couple of often-ignored corners of Buddy some well-deserved love: - New: A revamped Settings screen with a fresh look. It might not be the most visited part of the app, but it’s nicer now — and it supports Dynamic Type (text size now follows your system font settings). - New: A modernized budget picker. It should feel familiar, just cleaner and more polished. - Fixed: A bunch of smaller fixes and improvements throughout the app. As always, thank you for using Buddy — and congrats on making it through January!
13.25
A small but shiny update, with a mix of polish, fixes, and a few details we couldn’t stop thinking about: - Improved: The dark mode app icon has received a subtle makeover. Same icon, just looking a little sharper than before. - Fixed: Tapping the date field when creating or editing renewable transactions was… harder than it should’ve been. It should now work effortlessly. - Fixed: A few tweaks to the all-new Settings page, thanks to all your great feedback! And as always, a handful of general bug fixes and improvements to keep everything running smoothly. Thank you for using Buddy — more updates are on the way!
13.26
Ah yes. The classic update. No shiny new features. No dramatic redesigns. Just good old-fashioned bug fixes and improvements. We fixed things you probably didn’t notice, improved things you hopefully won’t think about, and made Buddy just a little bit more solid behind the scenes. It’s not glamorous — but it keeps everything running the way it should. As always, thank you for using Buddy. We’ll be back with something more exciting soon.

Congrats, we made it through the first two months of the year! Those are usually the hardest. Let’s keep this going into spring! - Fixed: This update resolves a bug where new wallets could accidentally be created when adding a transaction. While we admire the enthusiasm, Buddy shouldn’t be opening new wallets on your behalf. As always, thank you for using Buddy — more updates are on the way!
13.30
Spring is in the air! A time for fresh starts, a bit of cleaning… and apparently fixing a few things in Buddy. This is one of those classic bug fixes and improvements updates. Not very glamorous, but quietly important — the kind your future self will thank us for. - Fixed: Transaction type wasn’t always selected correctly. Now it behaves. - Fixed: The app could crash when logging in after logging out. Not the warm welcome we had in mind. - Fixed: Connecting an anonymous account with Apple could sometimes create a brand new account and make it seem like your data disappeared. That was… not great. It’s fixed now. Plus, as usual, a handful of smaller fixes and improvements under the hood to keep everything running smoothly. As always, thank you for using Buddy. More updates are on the way!

The FIFA World Cup is in full swing, and while we can’t help you predict the winner, we can help make sure your transactions keep flowing smoothly. * Improved: It’s now much easier to see when a linked bank connection needs to be reconnected, helping you keep your transactions flowing without unexpected interruptions. * Improved: We’ve updated a bunch of localizations, particularly in Dutch, Danish, and Swedish. Tack, tak, and bedankt to everyone who helped us improve them! As always, thank you for using Buddy — more updates are on the way!

The FIFA World Cup is in full swing, and while we can’t help you predict the winner, we can help make sure your transactions keep flowing smoothly. * Fixed: Selecting every 4th week when creating a recurring transaction now works as expected. Turns out "every 4 weeks" and "monthly" aren't quite the same thing. * Improved: Our Apple Watch app has received a slight glow-up and should now be easier to use. Your wrist deserves nice things too. As always, thank you for using Buddy — more updates are on the way!

So if you are going to Starbucks a lot, you will input it into the app and see that you have been there a little too many times and can cut back. It’s a very powerful tool. This app is flexible enough for those who are brand new to having a budget, teens and college students, to those with families and have complicated expenses. It can scale with you. Worth every bit of the 5/5 stars!",

It might not be the most visited part of the app, but it’s nicer now — and it supports Dynamic Type (text size now follows your system font settings). - New: A modernized budget picker. It should feel familiar, just cleaner and more polished. - Fixed: A bunch of smaller fixes and improvements throughout the app. As always, thank you for using Buddy — and congrats on making it through January!"

It should now work effortlessly. - Fixed: A few tweaks to the all-new Settings page, thanks to all your great feedback!

Not very glamorous, but quietly important — the kind your future self will thank us for. - Fixed: Transaction type wasn’t always selected correctly. Now it behaves. - Fixed: The app could crash when logging in after logging out. Not the warm welcome we had in mind. - Fixed: Connecting an anonymous account with Apple could sometimes create a brand new account and make it seem like your data disappeared. That was… not great.
