  • Add money to envelopes or categories.
    • Monthly envelopes (i.e. I set aside $250 for rent each month, on the 1st of each month, BudgetTracker allocates $250 to that envelope) ** Yearly envelopes (i.e. I set aside $600 to spend during the holidays and BudgetTracker will allocate $50 to that envelope each month so that at the end of the year you have $600 in that category)
  • Potentially tie in with bank accounts. Possibly limit them to only allocate money that they have.
  • Take a picture of a receipt and associate it with multiple entries
  • Make it very easy to record spending, and have it take money from envelope/category.
  • If we can tie it to a bank account, spending that appears on the account could be automatically deducted from envelopes/categories, or at least prompt the user to choose which category it belongs to.
  • Specify whether or not you'd like unused money to "roll over" to the next month ** Have "goal" envelopes (i.e. I want to save $20,000 for a car, each month I save $400 for the car, when I look at that envelope I see that I have $20,000 left to earn, then the next month $19,600, then the next $19,200 etc.)
  • Ability to share a budget (both read and read/write sharing)
  • RESTful...especially if we want to turn this into a mobile app
