Welcome to r/FreeBudget
Hey everyone, I'm Mike - the founder of FreeBudget.
I built FreeBudget because I got tired of paying $99-$109/yr for a budgeting app. The whole point of budgeting is to spend less money, so charging you to track it never made sense to me.
FreeBudget is free for core features (budgeting, reports, net worth, manual tracking). Bank sync is available for a small fee that covers connection costs. No ads and no selling your data to third parties.
This subreddit is the community home for FreeBudget users. Post questions, share your setup, report bugs, request features, or just talk money. I'm active here and I actually read everything.

Glad you're here.
Mike
