Last year I put together a battle for all the many, many budgeting apps out there! While I’ve tried a ton of them myself, I really want to get perspective from some of the folks in the OMD community try them, too. We put together the Summer of Funds Budgeting App-Lympics This was the two videos that resulted from that:

I’m updating this all into a blog post for 2022 during September - and I’d love to get your opinions on any budgeting apps that have changed or any new apps that you are using/trying out. If you already use an app regularly and are willing to fill in a form singing its praises or complaining about it, please let us know. If you tried an app and hated, please fill in the form, too! We particularly need people to report back on Monarch Money, Fudget, Honeydue, and Simplifi
Has anyone here set up Monarch for a family/household?
Human and I are looking for a way to share account balances but not transaction details on some accounts (we liked that on Zeta), but not finding it. May not exist, I dunno
That’s what we did, actually! Honeydue seems more bare bones but since it’s free we might stick with both… Honeydue for account balances, Monarch for joint budgeting (loving it so far, it’s like a better Mint!) and investment tracking.
This might just be the motivation I need to finally try out Buckets. I liked Actual but they folded, although I think you can still run their code locally if you’re sufficiently motivated.
Please submit what you can! The budget post is going up this week, and budgetober starts next week. Even if it’s super light info, it is SO HELPFUL for other folks.
