Some budgeting apps work by auto-transferring money to your savings account.
Financial therapist and podcast host Amanda Clayman said these apps make you disengaged from your money.
Budgeting apps make it easier for you to transfer money into savings accounts without having to think about it.
While some people credit budgeting apps as useful tools, they're far from the best way to save money in the long term, according to Amanda Clayman, a financial therapist and host of the Audible series "Emotional Investment."
According to Clayman, apps that automatically move money to your savings account can be great for short-term goals like planning for an upcoming vacation.
