What does "official budget" mean? Serious question, what else are you supposed to do other than check your account every once in a while*?
* (and by that I mean get notifications from your bank if there's any movement)
Some people use apps or spreadsheets to have a very structured budget. I am not one of them. I have a concept of a budget.
You can even predict more or less how much you're going to spend by your expenses history, but configuring the formula for that on a spreadsheet, or at least figuring it out, is a major pain. But once done, helps a lot. =D
