Help & support
SkyBudget is a shared budget for your household. Here are answers to the most common questions.
How do I start a household and add my partner?
After signing in, choose Start a household and give it a name. Then go to Settings › Invite someone to get a 6-digit code.
Your partner installs SkyBudget on their phone (iPhone or Android), signs in, chooses Join with a code and enters it. A code works once and expires after 24 hours; you can always make a new one. Everyone in the household sees the same spending.
How does receipt scanning work?
Tap Scan receipt on Home and photograph the receipt, choose photos, or import a PDF. A long receipt can have several pages.
SkyBudget reads the shop, date, total and items, and suggests a category for each item. The receipt then waits in Review, where you check it and confirm. When you change an item's category, SkyBudget remembers it for next time.
Each household has a monthly number of scans, shown in Settings › Receipt scans. It resets on the first of the month. Receipts are read by Anthropic's AI; the privacy policy explains what is sent.
How do I track debts?
Go to Settings › Debts and choose Add debt: a mortgage, loan, car finance, credit card, pay-later account or money borrowed from family. Record each repayment with Record payment, and SkyBudget keeps the balance and shows what's left to pay.
Purchases made on a card or with pay-later count as spending when you buy, so the repayment isn't counted twice.
Can I export my data?
Yes. Settings › Export to CSV creates a spreadsheet of your transactions that opens in any spreadsheet app, such as Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers.
How do I delete my account?
Go to Settings › Delete account and confirm. If you use Sign in with Apple on iPhone, you confirm with your Apple ID. If you don't have the app any more, you can ask us to delete your account and data by writing to hello@skywaylabs.io.
On Android, deleting your account doesn't disconnect SkyBudget from your Google account or Apple ID. With Sign in with Google, you can remove the connection in your Google account settings (myaccount.google.com/connections). If the account also signs in with Apple, the app tells you where to remove SkyBudget from your Apple ID.
If you're the household's only member, the whole household is deleted with all its transactions, categories, debts and receipt photos. If others are still in it, you leave the household and they keep its data. This can't be undone, so export anything you want to keep first.
Technical logs are kept for 30 days and crash reports for 90 days; the privacy policy has the details.
