Budgero Changelog

Connect Budgero to local language models via Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Your financial conversations never leave your device.

Let AI suggest categories for new transactions based on payee, memo, and your existing spending patterns. Review suggestions before applying.

Snap a photo of any receipt and let AI extract the merchant, amount, and date. Works with your local LLM for complete privacy.

Ask questions about your budget in natural language. Get insights on spending trends, category breakdowns, and budget health without leaving the app.

Speak your transactions naturally and let local Whisper models transcribe them. Say "coffee at Starbucks for $5.50" and Budgero handles the rest—completely offline.

Add transactions programmatically from external scripts, automations, or services. Generate an API token in Settings, encrypt your payload, and push directly to your budget.

A first-party Python client for the Push API with built-in AES-256-GCM encryption. Install via pip and start automating transaction imports in minutes.

Track every mutation across your budget in a new Settings page. See timestamps, operation details, and origin (local vs remote), with one-click undo for reversible actions.

Budgero now saves your most recent payee, account, and category so repeat entries start prefilled and faster.

A dedicated numeric keypad appears on touchscreens across the app, making amount entry smoother on phones and tablets.

Press Ctrl + Alt + T (⌘ + ⌥ + T on macOS) from anywhere to open the transaction form without leaving the keyboard.

Finish new transactions with Ctrl + ⏎ (⌘ + ⏎ on macOS) so keyboard flows match the rest of Budgero’s dialogs.

You can now drag and drop CSV or PDF files anywhere in the app to trigger an import, making it faster to bring in your data.

Split transactions now display correctly in quick views and have a polished layout on mobile cards, ensuring complex spending is easy to read on any device.

Fixed issues with offline guard fallbacks and forced sign-out on expired tokens to ensure your session state remains consistent and secure.

Self-host references were renamed to “Budgero Backup” across the import flow and docs, so new teams always see the terminology used in product.

Manual update checks surface clear status toasts and only prompt when a fresh build is available, so you always know whether Budgero pulled down anything new.

Resolved a bug where the old update overlay reloaded the PWA multiple times after an install, keeping the refresh to a single, predictable pass.

Split rows now respect category changes, show clearer totals, and keep amounts in sync so you can break up purchases without surprise leftovers.

The compact table view received spacing, typography, and highlight tweaks that make monthly plans easier to scan on both desktop and tablet widths.

Every account now surfaces its current balance right inside the sidebar list, giving you instant context while you jump between budgets.

A browser-based, offline-first edition that keeps your budget in OPFS. No account required, perfect for single-device workflows.

Updated budgero.app with Core vs Full comparison, revised FAQs, and a new pricing table highlighting the 14-day trial for paid plans.

Core now registers a PWA service worker, precaching assets so the experience works offline and can be installed like an app.

Spin up shared budget spaces, invite collaborators, and mirror assignments live so couples and teams stay perfectly in sync.

The Electron build now bypasses the onboarding tour entirely, letting experienced users jump straight into their budgets.

We removed the manual service worker update button from desktop settings to avoid confusing actions that do not apply to native builds.

Rules and recurring transactions now live together on the Automations page, complete with desktop dialogs, mobile drawers, and notification opt-ins for Electron and PWA builds.

Convert any transaction selection into a recurring template straight from account toolbars, pre-filling the editor so you can schedule paycheques and bills in seconds.

The editor adopts our calendar picker with past dates disabled, responsive card actions, and mobile drawers that prevent buttons from spilling offscreen.

Replaying queued mutations now skips reapplying local inserts, so new rules and recurring transactions appear exactly once even after reconnecting.

Collapsed and expanded category groups now sync to local storage so the budget table reopens exactly how you left it across reloads and tabs.

Budget table and goal cards received responsive tweaks around tablet widths, preventing cramped totals and awkward wrapping.

Goal status messages now rely on the same currency locale as the rest of the app, so progress and target amounts line up.

Transfers directed to off-budget accounts correctly decrease Ready to Assign, keeping your cash flow math precise.

Introduced selectable presets with persistence so you can swap Budgero’s look without losing your preferred light or dark mode.

Choose from Twitter Blue, Paper, Neo Brutalism, Bubblegum, or DOOM 64—each tuned with custom OKLCH tokens, fonts, shadows, and sidebar accents.

The appearance picker now previews palettes, manages data-theme attributes, and keeps light/dark controls close at hand.

Dashboard transaction headers scroll with the list again so your view stays focused on the entries you are reviewing.

Metric cards, chart filters, and detailed views now wrap neatly on smaller screens, leaving room for the mobile bottom nav and preventing cards from spilling offscreen.

Income vs Expense and Spending Over Time charts adopted compact K/M formatting and wider plotting areas so big budgets stay readable at a glance.

Click any monthly total to pop open a curated list of the underlying transactions, complete with account, memo, and amount details filtered by date, category, and accounts.

Shared multi-select account/category controls keep filters aligned across analytics cards, and date presets now focus on 14/30/90-day windows for quick comparisons.

Category rows, group headers, and totals received a slimmer, stacked layout so memos truncate gracefully, metrics hug the right edge, and the table shrinks without clipping on narrow screens.

The multi-month planner is now reserved for spacious desktops (≥1600px) and each month card stretches independently, giving a clearer snapshot when you open the sheet.

Drag-and-drop grips stay visible on desktop so reordering groups and categories is effortless, even with the tighter layout.

PWA install prompt from the setting page is now hidden on iOS devices as PWA installation is not supported on iOS. To install the app on iOS, users can use the "Add to Home Screen" option from the Safari share menu.

Creating goals or categories no longer re-opens the onboarding flow once your profile is marked complete, keeping experienced users focused on budgeting.

New users are welcomed with an intro screen and step-by-step guidance through master password setup, budget creation, and the essentials needed to start budgeting securely.

Wrapping up onboarding now lands on a dedicated “You did it!” moment that reinforces progress and highlights the next best actions.

Category groups, categories, goals, and assignments now light up right where work needs to happen—complete with scroll-into-view hints so nothing gets lost.

When you import from YNAB we auto-complete onboarding tasks, skip redundant walkthroughs, and keep the server in sync so you can get straight to budgeting.

Launched this page so you can follow product updates without digging through release notes or social posts.
