Money, settled.
For the whole household.

What it does

A budget that keeps up with you

Most budgeting apps tell you what went wrong last month. Settle Down tells you while there's still time to do something about it.

The Activity screen: November purchases grouped by day, each sorted into a bucket like Dining Out, Entertainment or Groceries.

Buckets and alerts

Know where you stand after every purchase

Every card swipe lands in a bucket like Groceries, Dining Out or Gas, and your phone tells you right away how much of that bucket is left.

  • Instant alerts with the bucket and your month-to-date total
  • Start with sensible buckets, then add your own
  • Pace markers show if you're ahead or behind for today, not just the month
  • Split shared bills like rent so only your share counts
Spending trend chart comparing this month to last month, with a projected month-end total.

Trends and projections

See the month before it happens

Settle Down compares this month to last, then runs your spending forward to show where you're likely to land, with an honest range instead of a single guess.

  • Month-end outlook from thousands of simulated months
  • Bill forecasts so rent and utilities never sneak up on you
  • Budget tune-ups that suggest limits based on how you really spend
Asking 'How can I cut my spending this month?' and getting a card listing the biggest savings opportunities by bucket.

SettleDown, your money assistant

Ask your budget anything

Ask in plain English. SettleDown answers from your real buckets and purchases, and shows the math behind every number.

How can I cut back this month? What did we spend at Target since summer? Are we on track for Christmas?
  • Insights that flag what changed before it becomes a problem
  • A weekly recap of how your week compared to a typical one
  • Automatic sorting for purchases that don't fit an obvious bucket
The Savings screen: $5,650 saved across goals, with Emergency Fund, Summer Vacation and Christmas progress bars.

Savings goals

Savings that stay put

Set aside money for the emergency fund, the vacation or the holidays in their own envelopes, separate from everyday spending. If a bucket runs over, you'll see exactly which goal it's coming out of.

  • Monthly targets with a finish date for every goal
  • Overspending made visible, before it eats your savings

And a few things you'll love

The busywork, handled

Scan a receipt, split the purchase

A Target run is groceries, household and a birthday gift. Snap the receipt and each line goes to the right bucket.

One budget for the household

Invite your partner. Each of you links your own banks, and you both see the same buckets and goals.

Cancel subscriptions for you

Settle Down finds what renews each month. Tap Cancel and SettleDown works through the cancel page while you sign in and approve the final click.

Bills on the calendar

Recurring bills are spotted automatically and forecast ahead, so you know what's still coming this month.

Spending patterns

See which days, stores and habits drive your spending, with lumpy one-off months kept out of the averages.
