A Monthly Budget Template for iPhone

A simple monthly budget starts with a clear view of planned spending, actual spending, and recurring costs.

Choose the categories you want to see

Use the categories that match your life, rather than adopting a rigid budget structure.

  • Housing and utilities
  • Food and transport
  • Subscriptions and software
  • Savings and debt
  • Personal spending

Keep recurring costs visible

A manual subscription list can sit alongside your monthly budget so recurring spending is easy to review.

Adjust the table as your month changes

Use extra fields for planned amount, actual amount, payment method, or notes when they add value.

Use a flexible table instead of another scattered list.

Open the Manual Subscription Tracker template inside Pocket Tables, or return to the Pocket Tables app overview.
