"How much can I safely spend today?"

The easiest and most powerful budget app around, True-Budget helps you figure out what you can safely spend right now, and all you have to enter is your current balance. Drop your cashbook and try it now!

+ What do I get out of it?

You will know how much you can safely spend today, and you will never again run out of cash before payday. No more bouncing checks, and you dont need to track all your expenses. Just entering todays balance is enough.

+ What does this app do?
True-Budget figures out what part of your balance you can safely spend. It does this by projecting your regular incomes and expenses into the future. Using it is easy as one-two-three:

1. Enter your current balance
2. Find out how much you can spend today
3. Never worry about running out of money again

+ Why would this app work for me?
If youve tried writing down all your expenses and it didnt improve your finances, then True-Budget is the app for you. You do a one-time setup; after that, all you have to enter is todays balance, and you will know how much of that you can safely spend.

+ Is my bank supported?
Yes. True-Budget does not connect to your bank account, so all banks are good. The only data going into True-Budget is the list of incomes and expenses that you enter on setup. Just once.

+ What are similar apps?
A lot of people looking to stay on top of their finances have tried Mint, PocketSmith, YNAB, Spending Tracker, Checkbook, Money, MoneyWiz or PocketMoney.

+ Whats the idea of those apps?
Most of those apps only allow you to track past expenses. Thats a lot of work for you, and you have to trust these folks not to sell this very personal information. Besides, what do you get out of it? You learn about what you spent yesterday. Okay.

+ What are these apps not doing?
None of these other apps can tell you where your balance is headed in the coming days and weeks. And yet thats what you need most to make smart spending decisions.

+ So what should I do?
Give True-Budget a try. It will pay itself back in no time.

Latest reviews of True-Budget app for iPhone and iPad

Thumbs down!
I was looking forward to using its concept but it gets a F for functionality it always freezes and doesnt work properly or near seamlessly It seems to forget some information entered or not list it .
Terrible App
Really disappointed with this app. It doesnt remember information entered or cross it over to your daily balance. Waste of time and money.
Buggy App! Please Fix!
Buggy. Screen locks up when you enter expenses. To the point of being useless. Please fix. I had high hopes for this app...especially since it was four dollars. Dont waste your money till its fixed!
