Tally Budget v2.0.0 is here

This release is all about clarity in the app. You get a smarter assistant, richer transaction detail, a fresher look on the latest iOS, and quicker reads on how you’re doing with your money.

Penny AI assistant

Penny is your in-app partner for staying on top of budgets without the spreadsheet brain-drain. In this update she can help you plan budgets (think through categories, amounts, and pay cycles in plain language before you commit anything). She can also create budgets and transactions from conversation so you spend less time tapping forms and more time deciding what matters.

Need a second opinion on habits? Ask Penny to analyze your spending. She can summarize patterns, call out categories that crept up, and suggest adjustments that fit how you already use Tally. Everything stays in context with your data so answers feel specific, not generic.

Payment types for transactions

Transactions now support payment types (cash, card, transfer, or whatever labels match how you think about money). That makes reports and reviews more honest. You’ll see not just what you spent, but how you paid, which helps when you’re reconciling or trimming friction (fees, subscriptions, impulse taps). Types are optional but encouraged so your history stays meaningful over time.

iOS 26 and Liquid Glass

On iOS 26, Tally adopts Apple’s Liquid Glass materials so navigation, sheets, and key surfaces feel native to the new system. It’s not just polish. Controls read more clearly at a glance, and the app feels more at home next to the rest of your updated device.

Improved home screen with better insights

The home screen has been reorganized to surface what matters first (where you stand this period, what needs attention, and quick paths into budgets and logging). Insights are tighter and more scannable so you can open the app, get the gist in seconds, and get on with your day.

Pie chart on the budgets tab

The budgets tab now includes a pie chart so you can see category mix at a glance. It complements the list view. Use it when you want a visual split (“where did this month go?”) and drill into rows when you need line-by-line detail.

Thanks for budgeting with Tally. We’re glad you’re here.
