Visual Budget - Finances Reviews

I use this every single day !!!!!! It is an absolute essential for me. I will never use a paper bank balance register again. It’s so convenient being able to schedule all your future deposits & expenditures. I love knowing how much money I will have (or not have) at any point in time from today forward. I am reconciled with my bank on a daily basis & it’s the greatest convenience. Having all the history available is super helpful also. Being able to attach images to transactions is another great feature. I hope VisualBudget never goes away & will always be supported. I would be totally lost without it. Awesome product !!!!

Amazing App, like All Apps that really integrate all the things you need into it, a little learning curve should be expected to use all of the options available to you. And VisualBudget has everything you possibly need to easily keep track of your money and much more since all fields can be customized. I strongly recommend VisualBudget as well as there other ones. I do recommend getting full version of App or whatever they call it, then you can run a account for anything, I customize the fields and currently have a Personal, Business, Company Tax, & Payroll Account that keep my finances in order better than any other App I have tried.

I have been using Visual Budget on my IPhone for 3 years. For me it’s perfect for my needs. I keep track of all my banking information by inputting reoccurring bills at the beginning of each month. I know the total day by day as I input other transactions as I make them. It lets me know how much money I have in my account even before my bank let’s me know. So at anytime I can look and see how much money I will have at the end of the month to the penny. I would never dream of using another App. I have never had a single problem I love VisualBudget.

I’ve been using Visual Budget for several years as a cash flow management tool that I could use on my Mac as well as iOS devices. As a paycheck to paycheck single parent, I was able to plan and schedule bill payments around my income and not be late. Surprise expenses are always tough, but with this software, I can see how long it will take me to clear balances and set goals.
I haven’t even used many of the various charting and overview tools yet, so I know it can do even more. Overall this was well worth purchasing on all platforms.

VisualBudget is very useful and almost perfect. I can setup my expenses and income and see a day-by-day summary of my budget.

The things I think it could use are: longer time frames for seeing all expenses in the main view; fully customizable time frames for recurring expenses (in days or weeks); when duplicating an expense, to have the calendar match the month of the expense being duplicated (less scrolling through dates, then); the ability to edit individual entries of recurring expenses.

Other than that, it does exactly what I need and has been very helpful in setting up my budget.

Very intuitive. I track all expenses here. If I could have on feature added, it would be the ability to designate a separate default method of payment for each transaction category.
For instance, I always pay for petrol with cash, I always make my mobile payment with a bank transfer, and typically all my Travel expenses are paid by credit card.
If each of those defaulted to a different specified means of payment, that would be awesome; but currently I see only one default for everything.

I've used VisualBudget to track expenses and income for over a year now, and it is amazing. Well worth the $5 for the full version. VisualBudget is simple, never crashes or freezes, incredibly simple and intuitive, and does a lot to help you manage finances. I have a few minor gripes with it (capitalizing all words in descriptions of expenses, opening the in-app calculator pauses all audio on your device), but I didn't even hesitate to rate it 5/5 stars.

I use VisualBudget every day. I have had it for several years now and it continues to get better. I have an MBA and manage finances for a very large company. I have found that VisualBudget is better than the others and It does everything I need it to do in order to manage my household finances. The reason I gave it a 4 star is because it is not completely user friendly (yet) and sometimes it seems to have a glitch when I go to edit something and won’t allow me to do it (maybe an update issue?). But overall this is a great app.

I have found VisualBudget to be the best app I ever used. I’ve used it for literally years and it has never steered me wrong. Now I am facing some serious eyesight changes and I can no longer see the screens. I can see screens in dark mode however. I have been unable to find a dark mode substitute for VisualBudget. There just isn’t one. I can’t explain the sense of frustration that I go through every day using magnifying glasses to find my way. Could you please add dark mode as a feature? Thanking you in advance!

I think this is the best App there is. Like it has been said already in the comments, I’d like to have more default categories (cash, Visa, checking); also if the future can go up to 12 months, although I’m still content with 6 months.
But keep it up, it is great in its simplicity.

VisualBudget is awesome, I’ve been using it for years and it has totally helped me get a grasp of a budget. It helps me plan for future expenses and helps to project my future balances. My only complaint is that it doesn’t allow for recurring transactions between accounts, if this were ever added it would definitely be a 5-star. Currently I have to create a recurring transaction on each account and just remember to update it both places when changes (dates, amounts) occur.

It was time to get control of where my money is going. My goal is to save enough to pay my mortgage off early.
VisualBudget is so easy and user friendly. Gives perspective where money is going and wasted.
First month I listed all expenditures. Following months I knew just where to cut. Writing it down makes you more careful. So much easier to use than budget apps I’ve tried before.
I set a daily alarm in calendar to remind me to list my daily expenses. Don’t have to expose on line personal account information for it to work.
I use it just to list my expenses other than household bills so I can track waste.
So simple to use. Very reliable.

I was looking for an app that let me break items down into sub categories. This one fills that need and so much more. Very easy to set up and use.

The only thing I would change would be to add the ability to export based on date range instead of having to export the entire file.

I have been using this program for years and I love it. I would never go back. I would add 2 things; the ability to split the total transaction price among more than one category and the ability to reconcile the transaction from the main screen without having to open the transaction.

Love VisualBudget bcs you can track your bank account balance as far out as you are willing to input the information. Only thing I would change, when u open VisualBudget that it defaults to current day calendar not the farthest entry in the budget calendar.

my favorite part of VisualBudget is that it shows the daily balance. i have a lot of recurring transactions though, and sometimes i need to make changes to the recurring transaction as a whole in the Define section. is it possible to add the search function in that part of VisualBudget ? so i dont have to scroll through a huge list?

I really enjoy VisualBudget. It's easy to use and has a great look. It has some cool features that allows me to see my spending habits. It would be nice if it had a back-up feature of its own as opposed to me having to back it up. Never the less it is a great app.

I use this instead of my previous Xcel sheet on my laptop where I had to link to charts manually. I never kept this up to date as it was time consuming, so I really appreciate the automatic graphs VisualBudget created for any analysis of your personal budget. Plus this is on my phone I can do it in real time. Thanks!

I’m so glad I found VisualBudget. I use it for tracking my small business income and expenses and am able to create profit and loss statements in seconds. This saves my accountant a lot of work and time which, in turn, saves me money that I would otherwise have to pay my accountant.

After trying all the other ones and being disappointed by them, I finally found the perfect budgeting and financial tracking app. I’ve been using it since 2014, daily, and could not do without it.

It took a moment to get the feel of VisualBudget; however, once I understood how it works, I use it daily. It is essential to my being able to set up my budget and stay on task with all of my accounts. Simply outstanding.

The only thing that keeps this great app from 5 stars is after a few years worth of data, VisualBudget slows down and some of my reoccurring items get wonky. Other than that I have been using VisualBudget since 2013 or so and I haven’t used anything else that comes close, it’s performance and price!
