Lite version of HomeBudget with Sync. Limited to 20 expense and 10 income entries.

Now available in mobile (iPhone/iPad) and desktop versions (Mac OS), including instant data sync between mobile/desktop versions.

HomeBudget is an integrated expense tracker designed to help you track your expenses, income, bills-due and account balances. 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. The features within HomeBudget are well integrated such that a bill can become an expense (when you pay for it) and also adjust the account balance at the same time.

2. Family sync. HomeBudget includes Family Sync, an advanced feature that allows a group of devices/computers within the household to exchange expense and income information, and work together within a single budget. Once setup, the devices/computers sync with each other automatically over the air. Family Sync works across all features including Bills and Accounts. Please refer to the Family Sync Quick Start guide at http://www.anishu.com for information on configuring Family Sync.

HomeBudget a major disappointment

• ★☆☆☆☆   Le renard cccccccggggg 8 years ago ( v 3.2.4 )

I am looking for a working personal finance program for Mac to replace my quicken for windows. It is very hard to get an idea as to what will work best when you are limited in the trial program. I imported a quicken file , did a lot of work in posting and associating imported files with expenses created in home budget. I worked over an hour before all was done. Only when I was done I was told I was limited to 20 transactions. so the program told me to save the work. I could not cause I kept getting the message that the number of transactions were surpass so I had to force quit without a backup. Good bye home budget . I will go to something else… So far I think checkBook Pro appears to have less bugs…. To the maker of this software you should allow for more than 20 transactions for a proper test . if your program (app) is any good, people would pay you for it no matter the number your limit. 20 transactions for a lot of us is very very MINUTE>>>>>>>especially when they come from an import file…..

I totally love it !!! It worth for free >>>

Easy to use. Easy to view and Easy to calculate. I love the Exchange Rate (guess). Since I use foreign currency like MMK. It shows in USD beside it. I can guess my balance in USD in a sec . THanks for free… PS- i write this review as soon as i test it . I don’t know if it is restricted for further uses..

Erro

O calendário do programa está errado. Em bills 1.janeiro.2013 marca como quarta-feira quando o correto seria terça, espero atualizações

• ★★★★★   Abgpa 11 years ago ( v 2.9.1 )

This app is excellent ! I synchronize my expenses among my devices and I also created a group, which I can share with anyone I want to. Moreover, I am able to create new categories and subcategories in my expenses =) ! Great app !

Muito Bom !!!

Excelente aplicativo !!!! Ajudou muito

Versão gratuita é muito limitada

• ★★★☆☆   Gean Michel Ceretta 9 years ago ( v 3.0.7 )

Esta versão gratuíta com limite de 20 despesas e 10 entradas, difícilmente atenderá as necessidades de alguém, já a versão paga, sem as limitações, custa mais de 60 reais. Recomendo a quem deseja utilizar o programa, esteja disposto a comprar a versão completa, caso contrário perderá tempo alimentando dados ao programa.
