Where does your money go? Frustrated you aren’t getting ahead? Entirely unsure about your future? You’re asking the right questions but the world has taught you to think about money all wrong. You aren’t broke, but your money mindset is. It’s time to change your relationship with money and enjoy your spending.

Don’t settle for a life of constantly second-guessing your spending decisions, your progress, and your future—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, you’ll stop fighting about money, make better decisions, and sleep better at night. Confident, secure — are you ready to feel this way about your money (and so much more)?

    We started using YNAB in 2017 only on the app. The new updates are not good. Adding transactions takes extra clicks now and when both of us use the app for budgeting together, we have to take turns exiting the app to refresh the data. This led to lots of double entries and confusion. The app worked great earlier, but these recent updates have made it annoying to use.

    I really liked using YNAB for budgeting. The free version worked great for me because I was focusing on cutting down my expenses and didn't require linking to my bank. It's disappointing to see many companies moving away from offering free versions. If I could have, I would have willingly paid for the premium version to support others who needed the free one to manage their finances better. Now that I have to pay for the full version, I feel like they might be losing sight of our financial objectives.

    I really love this app and system! It has been super helpful for my wife and me to plan and align our budget every month. What's even better is that it encourages us to actually follow through on the budget. I would give it a perfect score, but there's just one thing that bothers me - importing issues. Right now, my American Express and CapitalOne cards are taking longer to import (since this year started), almost a day late. Unfortunately, my local credit union doesn't seem to work with it either. Even my Target RedCard isn't syncing properly. But no worries, we can still enter transactions manually if we have to.

    It's an awesome app to go along with the website. The design is neat and it works quickly. Adding transactions and transferring money is a breeze. It syncs up fast with the web version. Some things that could make it even better are more reports and trends like the website offers, plus widgets for seeing different budget categories on your main screen.

    This idea is great, but it needs an undo button or some major changes. If you make a mistake with one thing, it messes up everything and you have to start from the beginning. Also, don't try to connect your bank accounts. If you enter a receipt into your budget early, the app will keep reminding you to handle those transactions and might duplicate them, even including all past ones, which will mess up your accounts.

    As I used it more, it got even more confusing. It's especially tough when budgeting for two people on just one account. The user interface doesn't clearly show why the budget bars are split, and sorting out credit card payments on mobile is really tricky. I may as well spend that time using an Excel sheet instead.

    I have tried many budgeting apps, but my favorite is YNAB because it is the most efficient. I rated it a 3 because I feel the old version was much better. I wish they would integrate some elements of the old version or allow us to choose between them. I particularly miss having offline access in case there is no internet, the check number column which made it easy to find all my checks at once, and access to months in advance. Being able to plan ahead is crucial for budgeting as it helps me see into the future with my financial spending and goals.
