Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
HomeBudget is a legitimate budgeting app used to store personal financial information such as expenses, income, account details, bills, and receipt images. That kind of access is normal for its purpose, but the data can be sensitive, so use a strong device password and keep backups protected. If you use sync or exports, be mindful of where your budget files and reports are stored or shared.
Recommendation: Keep HomeBudget if you actively use it for budgeting, bill tracking, or shared household finance management. Remove it if you no longer use it and no longer need its local budget records, backups, or exported reports.
