About BudgetKind
Budget kindly.
BudgetKind is a calm, private money manager. It shows where your money goes, catches the mistakes that throw budgets off, and never makes you feel bad about it.
WHY PEOPLE SWITCH
• A real free version, not just a trial: no account, no ads, no time limit.
• Made for Android first.
• Simple pricing: the free version stays free, and Plus is $39.99 a year.
• Each linked account shows when it last updated, so a stalled connection is easy to spot.
TWO WAYS TO USE IT
• Free (Manual): everything runs on your phone. No account, no ads, and your budget data never leaves your device.
• Plus: $4.99 a month, $11.99 every 3 months, or $39.99 a year, with a 14-day free trial. Adds automatic bank sync through Plaid. Billed through Google Play and renews automatically until you cancel in your Play subscriptions. We email you about 2 days before your trial ends.
START HOWEVER YOU LIKE
• Add cash, wallets and manual accounts in seconds.
• Import bank statements: CSV, Excel, PDF, OFX/QFX and QIF, with a preview, a balance check and undo.
• Bring the export from the money app you use today.
• Try the demo with sample data before adding anything of your own.
NUMBERS YOU CAN TRUST
• Possible duplicate transactions go to a review queue. Nothing is deleted silently.
• Transfers and card payments between your own accounts are matched, so money is counted once.
• Pending charges become posted ones without losing your notes or categories.
• Connection health shows how fresh each linked account is.
BUDGETS THAT FIT YOUR LIFE
• Monthly budgets with rollover, plus suggestions based on your real spending.
• Recurring bills, subscriptions and paychecks are detected on your device, with price-increase flags.
• Money-leak insights point out fees, unused subscriptions and creeping costs. Dismiss or snooze any of them.
• Rules, custom categories, tags and splits, applied to past transactions too.
SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE
• Spending by week, month, quarter or year: income vs spending, a category breakdown and drill-down.
• Net worth across linked and manual accounts, with a trend chart.
• Manual investments and debts.
• Goals and savings challenges such as no-spend days and spending caps.
• Ask about your spending in plain words. Answers are computed on your device.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No ads and no selling of your data. Crash reports are optional and you can turn them off.
• App lock with fingerprint, face or device PIN.
• Bank sign-ins happen in Plaid's secure screen. BudgetKind never sees or stores your bank password.
• Your bank connection is encrypted on our servers and never stored in the app.
• Export to CSV, back up and restore, and delete your data at any time, including your cloud account, from inside the app.
BudgetKind is a money-management tool. It doesn't move money, offer loans or credit, or give investment advice.

What’s new
Version 1.0.3 · Updated November 1, 2026
Plan ahead, with a calmer look. Home shows what's left to spend this month and per day. With checking linked, a forecast estimates your balance 30, 60 or 90 days out. Budget alerts, budgets by paycheck and a debt payoff plan help you stay on track. Sync now waits 15 minutes after a successful sync and shows when the next one is ready. The app may occasionally ask for a rating. Fixes: Confirm in Transfers review works after a sync, and an empty Recurring opens Add account.
