Daily Budget Original
What is Daily Budget Original?

The user enters regular income, recurring expenses and a savings goal, and the app computes (income minus expenses minus savings) divided by the number of days in a month. The app does not connect to bank accounts and that data stays on the device unless the user chooses to encrypt and sync it.
Pricing. Daily Budget Original is free to download on the App Store.
