Every guide uses the same app. What changes is the setup, the examples and the limits worth knowing first.

// honest limits

Who Hunter Vault isn't built for

Anyone who wants investment tracking

There is no portfolio, cost-basis or market-value tracking. Reports cover the spending and income you log.

Freelancers who need tax tools

There is no tax set-aside, invoicing or business reporting.

Anyone who wants automatic bank sync

Hunter Vault never connects to a bank. You log spending yourself or import a CSV.

Children under 13

The app is not directed at children under 13 (under 16 in the EEA).

If one of these is a dealbreaker, our budgeting app comparisons cover several apps that handle them, such as the bank-synced options in Monarch Money alternatives.

Core budgeting is free and has no ads. The free tier covers up to 8 budgets, 3 recurring entries, 5 accounts, 3 debts and 2 savings goals. Hunter Elite is a one-time $15.99 upgrade that removes those limits. Budgeting never requires a subscription; the optional subscriptions are Hunter Pass (for the Huntee AI assistant and Smart Import from screenshots and PDFs) and cloud sync.

No. It never connects to a bank. You log spending yourself, set up recurring entries, or import a CSV you export from your bank, which is free and processed on your device. Your data stays on your device unless you turn on an online feature.
