A question about : free alternative to YNAB, and it's great

hi, loads of people keep recommending YNAB, but if anyone wants a recommendation of a free one, I have been using this one, FREE for nearly a month now. Love ittitle=Smile it works so much better,looking at this rather than the bank balance.

Best answers:

  • It is for 'i' devices, so not terribly useful for anyone who doesnt have one of these. It doesnt sync to desktop and there is no desktop counterpart. You cant apparently import transactions from your bank. It is a tracker, not a budgetter. Sorry, it isnt YNAB. It might be good to use alongside, but it is nowhere near as sophisticated.
  • I used spending tracker too and can vouch it is quite a good app and shows you where all your money goes so you can adjust/ cutback on certain things, not. Quite a budget plan however unless you use it with something else, I just tired of putting in the details daily so stopped using it after I had adjusted my finances
  • As others have said, this is a spending tracker rather than a budgeting tool. If it works for you then great but it's not for me.
