A household budget tracker without the bank login
Household budget tracker — create spending budgets, log transactions, and see how much remains each period.
What Finances does
A simple budget: categories with a limit per period, transactions logged against them, and a remaining figure that tells you where you stand. It does not link to your bank, which for many households is the point.
Because it is an app in your household hub, the data sits in your own encrypted database, visible to the adults and to nobody else.
How it works
- Spending budgets per category and period.
- Log transactions against a budget.
- See how much remains each period.
- Adults only.
Who it's for
Couples who want a shared budget they enter by hand and control completely.
