I'm an excel nerd, I'd just do it in the free version online. Not sure if that's helpful, but if you're familiar with it, might be easier than learning a new software package....

LibreOffice Calc, a free version of Excel. Nothing is better than simply making your own.

If you're looking for a ready made solution, I've heard good things about Mint in the past and I'm fairly certain they have a mobile app as well.
 
Just use Google Sheets and you do not even have to download anything.
 
Google Sheets or OpenOffice are great free alternatives. I highly recommend OpenOffice.
 
Mint. I have the app. Sends me alerts when spending levels are high, I can set a budget, it downloads expenses and pachecks straight from my bank account with no work on my part. You can even set it up to give you a report of how much you spent on food/entertainment/gas etc every month. The advertisements don't seem very intrusive either. A few questions like "do you want a credit card" every now and then, but otherwise free and very useful.
 
GNUCash is pretty good, kind of like a Quicken clone.
