Email [email protected]: one person reads every message. It helps to include your iPhone model and the app version (Household → All settings).
Moving to a new iPhone
- On your old iPhone, update the app, open Household and tap Share this budget. This saves your budget to your email.
- On the new iPhone, open the app, tap I already use Simple Budget Planner → I saved my budget to an email, and sign in.
Sharing with a partner
In Household, tap Share this budget and send the code. Your partner opens the app, taps I have a code and types it in.
Codes are case-sensitive. If one doesn’t work, send it again from Household → Invite someone else. A partner who leaves gets back the entries they had before joining.
Restoring Premium
Tap Restore purchases on the Premium screen or in Household → All settings, signed in to the same Apple Account you subscribed with. Family Sharing members get Premium on their own iPhones automatically.
Cancelling Premium
Subscriptions are managed by Apple: iPhone Settings → your name → Subscriptions → Simple Budget Planner. Nothing you entered is deleted when Premium ends.
Changing your budget period
On Home, tap the period name at the top, then Change budget period… Choose monthly from your payday, every week, every 2 weeks or every 4 weeks. Your entries regroup instantly; nothing is changed.
When bills are added
Bills count toward your budget from the start of the period, so “left to spend” is honest. The entry itself is added on the due day: daily, every Sunday (weekly), on the 1st and 15th (twice a month), or on the 1st (monthly).
Exporting your data
Household → Export creates a CSV of this period, the last 12 months or everything. It opens in Excel, Numbers and Google Sheets.
Deleting your account
Household → All settings → Delete account deletes your account and every entry, category, goal and bill, on every phone. If your budget is shared, stop sharing (or leave) first. You can export a copy before you delete.
“Couldn’t load your budget”
Your entries are safe. Check your connection and tap Try again. If it keeps happening, tap Copy details and email them to us.
