About this app

Where does your money go? Frustrated you arenā€™t getting ahead? Entirely unsure about your future? Youā€™re asking the right questions but the world has taught you to think about money all wrong. You arenā€™t broke, but your money mindset is. Itā€™s time to change your relationship with money and enjoy your spending.

Donā€™t settle for a life of constantly second-guessing your spending decisions, your progress, and your futureā€”trapped somewhere between defeated, embarrassed, and overwhelmed. There is another way.

You need a set of habits to change your mindset and your behavior, until you are spending purposefully, saving aspirationally, and even giving generously.

YNAB has taught millions of people a set of habits to change their relationship with money for good. As these habits become second nature, youā€™ll stop fighting about money, make better decisions, and sleep better at night. Confident, secure ā€” are you ready to feel this way about your money (and so much more)?

Great concept, mediocre execution. The app and website honestly are way behind the times based on features, so you're not paying for anything special except permission to use the concept. šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø I like the concept but I won't be renewing unless they catch up with their app and website. At least make it easier to use and have all features transferred seamlessly. The app is more difficult to use than necessary.

Just started. Not sure if we'll continue. The UI is terrible. Super noisy. Mobile is worse. There is no way to navigate directly from the budget view (Gas, Bills, etc...) to the transactions currently mapped to that budget category. This seems like a budgeting tool basic. Users should always be able to navigate up and down, that is, go from a higher level category and drill all the way down to he transaction. Adding users to my budget requires them to also pay for a YNAB subscription?

HI Jordan, Thanks for your review! I wanted to let you know you can go directly from a category to the transactions that took place in that category by clicking/tapping on Activity. That can be found in slightly different places on web and the app, so if you are curious about more info, write to us at help@ynab.com. Phil from YNAB

not as robust or as good as The web app. when paying off my credit card I have to go to the web app because I can't find the category and the phone app. otherwise this is fantastic. I've been able to accurately pay so many bills, and plan for surprises. I've only been using this since February (two whole months) and it's been a game changer. I came from mint and mint was really not good at helping me save money, just tracking money, so less of a budgeting tool and more of a tracking tool.
