Yet Another Really Opinionated Nudger for Financial Adulting. YARON FA is a simple companion for understanding where you stand financially — at whatever pace feels right for you. — SEE WHERE YOU STAND — Your bank accounts, your investments, your savings — all in one calm overview. Watch your progress unfold over time, and celebrate how far you've come. — DEFINE WHAT MATTERS — Set your own goals — whether that's a dream trip, a safety net, or simply feeling prepared. Check in whenever you're ready to see how you're doing. — UNDERSTAND YOUR CHOICES — Create labels that make sense to you. See where your money actually goes, and notice whether it reflects what you care about. — KEEP IT YOURS — No accounts to create. No cloud. No tracking. Everything stays on your device. Back up when you want, sync via AirDrop, and never wonder who's watching. — WHAT THIS APP IS — A nudge, not a lecture. This app encodes one person's decade of personal finance tracking — opinions about what's useful, not certified advice. It won't tell you what to do and can't predict the future. It just makes it easier to see where you are and whether that aligns with where you want to be. — WHAT THIS APP ISN'T — - Not a replacement for professional accounting, tax, or legal advice - Not certified by any financial institution - Not connected to your real accounts — all data is entered manually - Not sending anything anywhere — everything stays on your device — PRIVACY — No account creation. No analytics. No data collection. No ads. Your numbers belong to you alone. Financial adulting is a marathon, not a sprint. Start small. Future you is rooting for you. — FEATURES — - Track bank accounts, investments, and transactions - Multi-currency support - Custom categories to organize toward your own goals - Flexible labeling: income sources, spending types, social context, tax notes - Hierarchical label structures — as simple or detailed as you need - Update prices individually or paste from spreadsheets - Local backup and restore - Optional AirDrop sync between devices, if and when you choose to. - Works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac Completely free. No subscriptions, no in-app purchases.
