Advice needed...good budget apps?

fayeb04

Hi everyone,

Can anyone suggest a good mobile App to download as like a budget planner?

Just something I can use everyday to keep an eye on my spending and plan my monthly budget.

Thanks,

YNAB (you need a budget). Free monthly trial, desktop and app based and fantastic once you get to grips with it!! Give it a go. We've just finished our first month using it and have avoided going into our over-draft for the first time ever!!! Good luck!

i use google sheets/docs - monitor everything on there - done so for past 8 years now

some free apps though are:
Money Dashboard
Loot
Cleo

I used to use the old downloadable version of YNAB and found it life changing. I went from payday to payday living to having saving pots built up and never going into the overdraft.

The laptop it was on died recently though so now I use the new app, it’s a bit more basic but it’s the same principles, and while I don’t love paying monthly for it I tell myself they’ve more than earned that in the money they’ve saved me over the last few years!
