User reviews

Users consistently praise Goodbudget's simple and flexible envelope budgeting system, real-time syncing between users, and ease of transaction logging. However, many express frustration over the absence or limitations of automatic bank syncing requiring manual entry, confusing editing of envelope budgets, and certain UI deficiencies. While the app is favored over competitors for affordability and usability, users desire improvements in syncing features, data entry safeguards, and interface intuitiveness to make budgeting smoother and less error-prone.

Pros

Simple and effective envelope budgeting system that users find easy to understand and use.
Syncing feature enables couples and families to track expenses together and stay on the same page.
App is fast and easy to log transactions, with a clean user interface and good customer support.
Provides flexibility in budgeting without needing to link to bank accounts, which some users appreciate for accountability.
Affordable compared to similar apps and better than some competitors like YNAB and Mint.

Cons

Lack of automatic bank account syncing leading to manual transaction entry and possible missed entries.
Monthly budget/envelope setup and editing is sometimes confusing or non-intuitive, causing frustration.
Data entry can be lost if switching apps without saving, which is frustrating for users.
Limited app features compared to the website, such as inability to record all transaction types directly in the app.
User interface issues such as outdated number entry method and no clear month-to-month view.

Recent reviews

An excellent all with only a few missing features. This app puts budgeting front and center, but it also allows you to track payees and to split transactions, among other helpful features. So many other apps were missing at least one feature. There are a few drawbacks. The account totals can take a while to update, which can be disorienting. Support for multiple currencies and the ability to attach photos to transactions would be helpful. Other than that, an excellent app.

This is the perfect budgeting app for me. I didn't need an app that I had to put in every penny I made and every penny I gave out. I just needed one to show the money that I would normally be pulling out of my account to stick into envelopes such as food, gas and miscellaneous. The regular monthly bills such as electric, mortgage etc. get pulled directly from my account already. However, you could easily use this for every penny if you wish I just don't need that
