It offers support for budgeting, and allows analysis of your expenses and income, including charts and graphs. Two key differentiating features of HomeBudget are: 1. Integrated set of features.

Once setup, the devices sync with each other automatically over the air. Family Sync works across all features including Bills and Accounts.

User Reviews
I’ve been using this app for over five years, and it worked exceptionally well. However, when I noticed that it hadn’t been updated, I was concerned that it might stop being supported. So, I started looking for alternatives. Surprisingly, I found nothing better on the market. When I saw that they had recently released an update, we decided to give it another try. My wife, who manages most of our finances, is incredibly grateful for this decision. I hope that the support continues.
This has been my best App for monitoring my home Income and Expenses (Retired Military Income and Social Income and All Home Expenses). All as the Title states “Free”. Currently the App is not working! It is ALL about posting and expense to my “Miscellaneous”. I have received awesome help from support! Have received “Links” to read. I have read and none address the following: 1. How to add an additional purchase given current issue 2. How to find current Version. If I go to App and I tap open, it just opens current Expenses for 12 categories. Miscellaneous with issues. 3. I do not need “Family Sharing”! 4. Could even use the “Lite Version 5. Will to “Pay”! 6. Do not want to lose years of Income or Expense posting!
I have been using this app for over 5 years. I love it!
Love how easy this app is to use. Amazing value for cost.
Like many others, I’ve been using this app for many years now. For those who value privacy/security - this is a great option as it runs & stores your data locally, while also offering an option to transfer your data from one device to another. Easy to setup, use and I haven’t had the need to use anything else.
My wife and I share ALL our accounts…and there are a lot of them. I used to keep track of the on written ledgers, which was pretty tough to do when you have joint accounts. HomeBudget is pretty great…and it is very easy to use. The app syncs your data to DropBox and cascades any changes to the other device’s linked to your account. You card as many accounts as you want, put them categories by type, transfer funds to another account, set up manage recurring bill and payments…and more. It’s pretty easy to reconcile; however, the app could use some improvements, mostly with filtering abilities. It’d be nice to be able to Filter for expense, by reconciliation status or by amount range.
Purchasing this app was one of my better choices. You have everything you need to keep track of your spending. I should have been keeping a budget years ago. I really like the pie chart and line charts. This budget app enables one to break down categories into useful subcategories to your liking as well as assign pictorial icons. I am completely satisfied with the ease of use.
I’ve been using HomeBudget for about 10 years now and it’s my only budgeting program. The only issue I’ve had is some number inconsistencies between Mac/Windows, so I just keep everything on Mac products now.
Search is working great now. I love this app! UPDATE ON 12/3/25: I no longer love this app. Search no longer works and it’s calculating the bank balance incorrectly. The balance is about $154 off. I’ve spent hours trying to figure out a way to fix it, but even when I change the dates, the balance is still off. I think I’m going back to my spreadsheet. I’ve tried too many apps like this, and they all become more difficult to use over time. Another update on 12/3/25. So I am eating a little bit of crow right now. Search seems to be working again and most of the balance problem was due to my error. I really wish we could move entries in the account apps. It would make balancing my checkbook to the statement way, way easier than it does now.
I have tried several budget apps but they were always lacking in some option I really wanted. I had been using a home bank register to keep records. I believe I can now dispose of it. I can open/close accounts, do a budget the way I want and even balance to the bank acct daily. It’s really well worth the $4.99
