Honeydue alternative: couples budgeting that keeps the dates
Honeydue was the go-to couples budget app — shared bills, reminders, "no judgement" spending tracking. Its fate has been uncertain since its parent paused development. A calendar-first couples plan gives you the shared view and the reminders, plus a forecast, with no bank feed and no dead-end risk.
- Shared calendar
Both partners see bills, paydays and the projected balance on one grid.
- Shared recurring bills
Rent, utilities and subscriptions repeat with reminder dates.
- Free core
Shared planning is free forever; Pro is a single payment.
- No bank linking
Nothing to aggregate — enter what you know, together.
What couples actually need
- A shared view of upcoming bills and paydays
- Clear assignment of who pays what, on which date
- A projection of the joint balance
- Reminders before due dates, not after overdrafts
