    Hey all, I made this in my spare time because I'm really interested in personal finance and I really hated all of the other budgeting apps. I'm hoping others like it, but it works for me and that was my main goal.

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Main annoyance for me with other apps: the auto-categorizing of transactions. Personal finance is personal, and it’s impossible to get them right 100% of the time. I use the same type of guesses so if it is right you can quickly confirm it, but if it isn’t you have a chance to correct it before it goes into the wrong budget category.

    Edit: also here is direct link to app store if people prefer that. wasn't sure if i should link my site or app store - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/swift-budget/id1222420404?ls...

    The app looks good! I didn't liked the fact that I have to create an account to use the app on my device. Are you planning on adding a web version or something to support multiple devices? That's the only reason/benefit I can think of for the account registration.
