I think @jamiemathieson is suggesting that it’s optional, so if you do your shopping through the week (or month), you can see how much you have in your budget per day.
I tend to work this out from the Summary tab myself, so having a toggle to work it out for me would be useful.
Then obviously you’d have a much larger overall budget and it’d work exactly as I explained? 
Precisely the point I was making, there would be the weekly/monthly/daily breakdown to use whichever one you’d like — just to see the info differently as like you said right now I’m having to calculate what I have daily from the monthly amount but having the app do that for me with a variation of the summary page would be perfect 
Very nice idea 
I would also like to see Monzo develop more ways to manage your budget and anticipate payments. So having daily/weekly/monthly/bimonthly/quarterly and even yearly budget tools would very useful. I also believe these tools would make Monzo stronger in regard to Business accounts where stronger budgeting tools are required.
Another way to manage your budget would be this:
Yeah, I think this sounds great! 
Thanks for backing up the idea 
Hope to see Monzo implementing these features over time 
Have seen this feature in this bank too, the gif on their Instagram show how over spending or underspending on each day alters how much you have for the rest of the month/week. I currently do this manually by dividing my monthly budget by 28 (as I get paid 4 weekly) and then have a spreadsheet that shows what my balance should be on each date. Lengthy process but it’s how I like to budget myself. Really hope this feature comes to Monzo!!
I like your idea but I would see it implement with an opt out functionality or some way to turn it off.
If I am on holiday or if it is some sort of family event and I want to buy more that I should, having the Monzo app tell me I can only spend £30 but I want to spend £100 will make me feel guilty.
There is a point where too much management and to much machine learning will be stop being beneficial and start causing stress and overwhelming
Yes, that’s exactly why I said I want there to be an option to switch between weekly, monthly and daily budgets.
Thanks for your feedback
The way I see it working would be that the daily budget would fluctuate depending on the days when you underspend or overspend. If it says £30 per day but you spend £100 then the rest of the month would decrease slightly to £26.70 or something. And then days when you spend less than the budget would then increase it. You’d never get told you’re spending too much because it’d only be affecting the following days spends which is the same as what you would do for a monthly budget
That makes no sense? I’d just rather it be a breakdown of how everybody calculates budgets. You work out how much you wanna spend on something everyday, giving you your total monthly budget. So, the daily budget is the monthly budget divided by the total number of days in your summary reset period.
And if you don’t want to view this you can easily toggle back to the monthly summary.
I think it would make it easier for people to stick to their monthly budget. This is what I do manually each month and I find it helps a lot when sticking to a monthly budget.
Starting budget £500 (£16.12 per day)
I spend £13 on the first day meaning £487 (£16.23) - an increase due to the underspend on the previous day.
This would continue throughout the month and would fluctuate meaning several days of underspending would mean a higher budget for the remaining days.
1 big spend day wouldn’t drastically affect the daily budget as the “recovery” would be spread over the remaining days.
I understand this now, thank you for explaining.
Hi, I was wondering whether a feature for weekly budgets will be available at some point as many ppl are paid weekly rather than monthly so this could really help. At the moment the circle which changes colours and the predictions on committed spending are incorrect for me due to the calculations being based on monthly income
second this as move money on a weekly basis to monzo and would be great if the summaries of spend and how much was available was on a weekly rather than monthly basis.
I tried Dozens for a week last week to see what it’s like. It lacks SOs and multiple savings options, so not good for me, but I really liked the weekly budget view. 
I’ve also been using dozens the past few weeks, it definitely needs some tweaking but that weekly budget is absolutely fabulous and what is lacking from monzo.
Disappointing that there’s no talk from monzo staff or replies in the forum about this
This is totally needed! Would be great if Monzo can give us a heads up of any updates.
100% need a weekly budget tool for those of us that get paid weekly. Or the ability to turn the feature off all together so it doesn’t constantly think I’m running out of money.
If they do ever add a weekly budget, they also need to include the ability to manually tag income regardless of value.
At present, my weekly income is paid (by me) as a Faster Payment. It’s less than £200 which i believe is the lower threshold for some reason… until then, you can’t mark/predict income so any weekly budget is completely useless.
Seeing as this thread is a year old as it is I’m not holding my breath that they will do anything with this, yet it renders the Budget/Summary and all the subsequent features that do (and will) hang off those views, meaningless. For example, a monthly report is being trialled that includes a ‘You have X left from your month’ you can move it to a Pot.
Sidenote: Monzo mission to help people manage their money better must surely include a large number of people paid weekly/fortnightly?? Or just the monthly salaried lot that get the benefits? I wonder if there is a split of income levels versus payment frequency… lower paid jobs pay weekly? Higher ones monthly? (not saying this is the case, just a ponderingment).
I’d also find a weekly budget very helpful. I’m self-employed, and I signed up to Monzo to help me control how much I spend day-to-day. I’m paying myself every week, but I didn’t realise Monzo wouldn’t let me budget that way.
