Set a monthly budget

Pick a total and allocate it across categories.

Updated May 14, 2026

A monthly budget gives every dollar a job. Set a top-line, then allocate it to categories like Rent, Groceries, and Subscriptions.

Steps

  1. Open Home → Budget.
  2. Set the total monthly budget.
  3. Allocate by percentage or fixed amount across categories.
  4. Watch the progress bars fill as you log expenses — hover for spent / limit / remaining.
💡 Pro tip: rebalance after the first two weeks. The first plan is rarely the right one.
