## YNAB Description
Have you ever worried about money? You are not alone. 

Download YNAB, get good at money, and never worry about money again.

“We started YNAB January 1st with $37 saved and ended the year with $42,000. Plus we paid $14,000 cash for a new roof.”
-Kyle, YNAB user since 2020

Start your free one-month trial and stop feeling like you’re bad at money. 

“YNAB has removed the stress of money from my life and in doing so has helped make me a better husband. It's like I got to remove a personal flaw I had never been able to fix." 
-Kyle, again. We didn’t even pay him to say this, but maybe we should.

Why YNAB?
-92% of YNAB users report feeling less stressed about money since starting.
-The average user saves $600 in the first month, and $6,000 in the first year.

“A year of YNAB costs less than a massage and is a heck of a lot better for reducing stress.”
-Kat, YNAB user since 2016

## YNAB Reviews in South Africa

### ***** "Additional Features Request"
Please add in the reflect section an income vs expenses report and something to show what your monthly average income is
-- ahmedlei, 2025-05-30

### *---- "Not free at all"
The only thing they offer for free is a month and then you pay for everything thereafter.
-- mmarcussm1, 2025-01-18

### *---- "Entirely subscription based"
Like the title says, this app will require a subscription to even work. No free features at all. For an app that’s offering to help users save money, there has to be some irony in there. 
Already deleted my account within a few hours of downloading the app.
-- bird yellow, 2025-01-18

### *---- "It’s a no from me"
Oh my goodness. Complicated for no reason whatsoever. Literally impossible to make quick changes without a PhD in linguistic gymnastics. Convoluted navigation experience. Deleting now. Keep the money.
-- Disappointed User 1971, 2023-10-21

### *---- "Bugs not fixed"
Missing menu bar still missing. Can’t make any changes in the App.
Subscription cancel.
-- Pilotguyflying, 2023-03-12

### *---- "No waay"
Why on earth is it soo complex... Geez *delete app*
-- all nicknames are taken🙄, 2022-05-15

### ***** "Great app"
One I started to truly understand what YNAB was trying to achieve, it became the best app I have ever purchased.
-- Thando man, 2021-12-27

### ***** "Thank you YNAB!"
Saving my sanity (and my finances) for many years now. Highly recommend
-- wearealreadyfree, 2020-12-27

### ***** "The best budgeting app"
I've been a subscriber for years and I would recommend YNAB to everyone. It has been invaluable to our marriage too.
The reason I subtracted one star is there are some features I would love to see added to the App (they're available on the web):
• Searching for budget categories, and
• the ability to change the balance of an account
-- naudeZA, 2020-04-01

### ***** "Wonderful"
Such a great app. It’s helped me save so much money and it really keeps me on top of my finances. I highly recommend it.
-- Sphynx16, 2019-04-18
