#12There's a certain variety of budgeting I've yet to see, but that I think would be very valuable. It's something I'd pay a decent amount for, actually. The majority of my expenses and income are very predictable, such that I get paid every N days, I get billed X every Y days, etc. I would like to see an application that tracks my balance for every day, from now and into the future, such that I can see my predicted bal…
I've actually been building this the last few months. One of the subtleties are bills or payments that appear on weekdays only, or the nearest weekday to a given date. I'm being careful to handle all these edge cases.
I have pretty good credit card projections implemented as well, including the rules for computing minimum payments.

The banking startup simple has a feature like that called "Safe-To-Spend" https://www.simple.com/goals/
I just switched to simple, and am liking it so far. The design and functionality is, well, simple.

#14Could someone comment on this vs YNAB? With YNAB I have it hooked up on my desktop as well. How does this compare? I like the neat visuals, wish YNAB had those.
I think this would be good for planning your savings for future (forecasting), YNAB is about current and past budgeting (though there are ways around it (http://www.youneedabudget.com/support/article/forecast-in-yn...).

#15I love this. The whole "I made 30 apps this year..." posts are rediculous. Anyone can make lots of crapy apps. Creating a well designed app with valuable functionality and propper marketing/support web pages takes time and skill.
Kudos.

#17> Requires Android
> 4.0 and up
This cuts out pretty big portion of the userbase, doesn't it? Around 25% according to developers' dashboards[1].
I'm also interested in how this makes money? Or how it could make money. I'm not sure ads are viable alternative for apps you don't need to engage a lot with (i.e. games, readers, ..).

#18Is there the possibility to create a budget for the family? So that both me and my wife will spend from the same budget?
Do you know of any android/web app that can do that?

I'm nearly positive I've seen that in Microsoft Money, and pretty sure I've also seen it in Mint.
I think I recall that feature in Quicken, although I've long since sworn off using products from Intuit.

#20nitpick: the image on your page doesn't look right. It takes too long to load for such a small image and it isn't clear. Perhaps you have a large image which is being re-sized by the browser?
I'm on firefox, windows 7.
