But this is the only app that actually works. It incentives me to spend less money on some days, have extra to spend on the weekends. Thank you for not adding too many bells and whistles! Life Changing - I am the WORST with finances and I've tried other apps, including Mint, which I used for a week and quit. But this app?? It's amazing. I can't speak highly enough of how much this app is getting my life together. I'm aggressively saving, paying off all of my bills and I know exactly what I get to spend a day. I will never NOT use this. I hope it's here forever. Helps you be Accountable - This app turns my financial life into a game that I feel I can win. Daily Budget really works and it's core design sets it apart from other apps. -- IN MEDIA –- “Take the blah out of budgeting” – Seventeen Magazine “An utterly fantastic approach to saving” – Apppicker “Super-quick, easy way to show how well we're doing” - Appadvice -- HOW IT WORKS -- 1. Enter your regular income, like salary or monthly allowance. 2. Enter your recurring expenses, like rent or gym. 3. Enter your savings goal, like 10%. 4. Watch your Daily Budget gets calculated and know how much you can spend every day! *Daily Budget is calculated simply as (Income – Expenses – Saving)/Number of days in a month.
