START WITH THE FIT

The right answer depends on your constraints.

A couple sharing euros and forints on iPhones needs something different from a solo power user forecasting investments on desktop. These comparisons make that trade-off explicit and link to the official source behind every time-sensitive fact.

Compare by the question you are asking

“Can one budget hold multiple currencies?”
Start with Pigget, Banktivity, or PocketSmith.YNAB says separate currencies cannot be used together in one spending plan.
“Can my partner edit with me?”
Start with Pigget, YNAB Together, PocketSmith, or a carefully configured Actual server.The sharing model and account ownership differ, so read the details before migrating.
“I want a native Apple app.”
Start with Pigget or Banktivity.PocketSmith uses a web app with a mobile companion; Actual's official mobile apps are deprecated in favor of its progressive web app.
“I want maximum control over my data.”
Start with Actual Budget.It is open source and self-hostable, with optional end-to-end encryption for budget data.
“I need long-range forecasting.”
Start with PocketSmith.Its paid tiers advertise projections ranging from 10 to 60 years.
How we compare products

We use current official pricing, support, feature, and policy pages. We do not count a vendor's claim as independent evidence, and we do not imply hands-on testing where none occurred. Pigget is included because this is Pigget's site; that conflict is stated rather than hidden.
