What personal finance apps have you tried with budgeting? There are a few on the market, the most popular being YNAB and Mint. My personal opinion is that Mint tries to do too much while YNAB forces you into a rigid philosophy.
I made Lunch Money (https://lunchmoney.app https://lunchmoney.app) as a potential happy medium between the two. If you end up trying it out, feel free to let me know what you think!
- purerandomness 6y agoJen, thank you so much for LunchMoney. It feels like you really love developing it, and it shows. I've first heard of it from the IndieHackers podcast featuring you [1] and remember myself signing up and thinking "wow, this is exactly how I would design and build something like that". Everything is polished, thought through, and the pace with which you push out new features is crazy. Thank you!

- jnfr 6y agoThat's so awesome to hear, thanks for sharing!
- QuixoticQuibit 6y agoI’ve been meaning to get a sense of my day-to-day finances for a while now and I have to say that your site is great. Concise, answers all the obvious questions, and directly compares to the two most popular solutions on the market. Amazing work! Q: Have you ever considered alternative payment schemes, e.g., student pricing, loyalty pricing (pay $X first year and then $Y for all subsequent years, Y < X)?
- jnfr 6y agoThanks! We raise our prices every few months so you will be grandfathered into the pricing plan at sign up. Aside from that and occasional coupon codes for first year subscriptions, we don't have any other payment schemes (yet!).
