You've Never Budgeted Like This Before
Tired of trying and failing to manage your expenses? Suffering from budget burnout? We get it. But YNAB is different—because it actually works. Our powerful combination of a proven method plus our easy-to-use app will change the way you think—and do—money for the better.

A Proven Method—YNAB's Four Rules
Rule One: Give Every Dollar A Job | You're the boss. The drill Sergeant. The maestro. When you earn money, you prioritize how you'll use it, and then simply follow your plan.

Rule Two: Embrace Your True Expenses | Make your money boring. Did the car break down? No big deal. Are the holidays coming? You've got a Santa-sized pile of money stashed away. No credit card required. Imagine never (ever) dreading the arrival of a big bill.
Rule Three: Roll With The Punches | When you overspend in a budget category, just adjust. No guilt necessary. Plans change? Change your budget. Remember, you're the boss!
Rule Four: Age Your Money | As you repeat the first three rules, you'll start to feel the money stress fade away. You'll have money for next month's bills and will finally break the paycheck to paycheck cycle for good.

Excellent cash flow management tool

Most budget programs are set it and forget it. Which is the problem: once you set it, you forget it and you drift away from your spending plan. The beauty of YNAB is that it is flexible and dynamic, and allows you to adjust your spending plan as you need to. I found the program itself is well designed, reliable, and easy to use. The only issues I've had were with banks making it hard to set up connectivity. But YNAB did a good job of communicating how they were working to resolve the issues. In the beginning it does take a few hours to set up categories and get banks connected, mainly because it is so customizable, but once it is set up it is virtually effortless to maintain. Do watch the tutorials first on how to set it up. But then I spend 1 to 3 minutes each morning reviewing the previous days expenditures, and maybe 10 minutes a month reconciling my accounts. It shows monthly and quarterly reports so I can see trends over time. The only tricky bit is understanding how YNAB budgets your credit card purchases. That is not intuitive the way the rest of the program is. But they produce tutorials that explain it well. The web platform is easiest to use for setting up your categories, and for reconciliation. But the phone app is essential for quickly checking your remaining budgets on the go, especially as you get close to your next payday. I highly recommend it for those who want to be in charge of their spending habits.

The iPad app is way to kiddy

The app/methodology/paradigm(s) have really revolutionized the way I approach my own finances and i cannot recommend it enough from that regard as a service & function. I have budgeted myself for well over a decade and have done alright, but always felt there was some missing piece or rather a "hole" that seemed to be getting in my way. This app/way of tagging and budgeting really helped me see in a very adult way, the ways in which I was failing to connect some financial dots and keep myself from doing as well as I should have been; it made sense after I really pressed myself to drop my bad thinking that I had developed to try and work around the natural holes in a standard budget logic.

Having said all of that, I find myself using my iPad Pro to access the web client, as the app itself is so kiddy and limited that it makes it actually harder to digest the information presented and make the most sense of it. So much information but it's all so "big" that you can't see the big picture, almost simply because the text and forms are so LARGE. Really the app could be and needs to be as feature-rich and dense as the web app; basically take the web app and adapt it to be touch targets and color coded like the app is. It could be so much BETTER than the web interface with all the screen real estate on the iPad and the easy entry and basic structure they have in place for it already. I really look forward to the iPad app "growing up."

Stable, Essential, Life Changing

I've used YNAB since I was a broke college student, and it's helped me keep my financial life on track despite barely breaking the poverty line for my first few years out of school. I have never struggled to make rent or pay for my necessities, and I've stayed free of consumer debt. Because of YNAB I have been able to carefully weigh any debt I did take on (training for a career switch, a car) and pay it down without any stress. I clung stubbornly to the desktop app until I convinced my partner to start using it, and saw how far the web/mobile app had come, at which point I promptly switched over. I have a thing about app subscriptions (hate 'em), but the YNAB team is consistently rolling out improvements and features, all of which have been rock solid and helped me plan for my financial future even better. It's one of the rare cases where I get enough value from the service that I'm not only willing but HAPPY to pay to help the company grow. I could not recommend this app more highly. If you've ever struggled to save money or pay down debt, if you regularly get clobbered by predictable but irregular payments (6 month insurance premiums, replacing your computer/phone/car), if you need more accountability to make sure you're spending your money in line with your values, there is nothing better on the market for helping you get there.
