What Dudget is
Dudget is a manual-entry expense tracker for iOS and Android that works offline in more than 30 currencies. It calculates a live safe-to-spend amount from income, rollover, and spending. Budgets can use monthly, bi-monthly, weekly, or custom periods, with unspent money rolling into the next period. Transactions are grouped by day and can be searched, filtered, edited, or deleted. Dudget does not require bank sync and says it never asks for a bank password. Transactions stay on the phone in an encrypted SQLite database, according to the maker, and the app has no server that can see them. Face ID and PIN locks are supported. A rule engine remembers merchant categories without machine learning or cloud processing. The free plan costs nothing forever and includes one budget and one currency. Premium options include $2.99 a month, $24.99 a year, and a listed $69.99 a month lifetime option.
