## What is Adulting?

Adulting is the app for everything nobody taught us — money, jobs, renting, taxes, and all the grown-up stuff that's supposed to just figure itself out.

No shame. No boomer advice. No "just skip the avocado toast." Just practical tools and plain-English answers for the things you're actually dealing with right now.

WHAT'S INSIDE

Budget & Spending — Build a budget that fits your real life and track where your money actually goes. No spreadsheets, no guilt.

Debt — See a clear payoff plan for credit cards, loans, and Buy Now Pay Later (Klarna, Afterpay, Affirm) all in one place.

Credit — Understand your score, see what moves it, and practice with quick interactive drills.

Health Insurance — Decode plans in plain English and figure out which one actually fits you.

Renting — Scan a lease and flag the sketchy clauses before you sign. (Pro)

Roommates — Track shared rent, expenses, balances, and chores so nobody "forgets" their half.

Time Toolkit — Calculate your real take-home pay, track hours, and decode any paycheck. (Paycheck decoder is Pro)

Career & Jobs — Get AI feedback and rewrites on your resume, and check whether a job posting is real or a scam before you apply. (Pro)

Taxes — A first-timer's guide to filing, what documents you need, and free ways to file.

Driving, Retirement, and more — The full range of adulting, minus the overwhelm.

MEET THE ADULTING ASSISTANT

An AI assistant that actually knows your situation. Ask it anything — money, jobs, renting, taxes — and get answers grounded in what's going on in your life, not generic copy-paste advice.

BUILT FOR REAL LIFE

- Clean, calm design that doesn't overwhelm you
- One clear thing to do on every screen
- Your data stays on your device

ADULTING PRO

Upgrade to Pro to unlock the heavy-hitters: lease red-flag scanning, paycheck decoding, AI resume help, job scam detection, and unlimited Assistant messages. $1.99/month or $19.99/year — less than a coffee.

Adulting is built by an independent developer who wished this app existed. We're just getting started, and we'd love your feedback.

Educational information only — not financial, legal, or tax advice.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 3.5 — 2026-08-01

The biggest Adulting update yet.

   NEW: Spending Gym — beat impulse buys with a quick challenge before you spend, and send the money to your goals instead.
   NEW: A cleaner home screen that shows your budget, credit, debt, and goals all in one place.
   NEW: Loan & credit simulators — see how your choices play out before you commit.
   NEW: People Skills — word-for-word scripts for asking for a raise, dealing with a landlord, and more.
   PLUS: more accurate paycheck estimates and lots of polish.

### 2.1 — 2026-07-05

NEW: People Skills — word-for-word scripts for the conversations nobody teaches you. Ask for a raise, push back on your landlord, call to book a doctor's appointment, cancel a subscription that won't let go. Practice any of them with the AI Assistant before doing it for real, and copy any script straight into a text or email.

ALSO IN THIS UPDATE:
- Every lesson is now interactive — learn by tapping and guessing, not reading walls of text
- A calmer home screen with quick paths to what you actually need
- New "Money emergency" button for when things get tight
- Roommates is now Housing — because not everyone has roommates
- Smarter tax dates that follow the calendar
- Clearer insurance terms, friendlier labels, and plenty of polish

### 1.0 — 2026-07-01
