I compared two budgeting apps side by side for 3 months

Tried YNAB and EveryDollar from January to March and YNAB just clicked way better for tracking my irregular income. Did anyone else find one app just makes more sense for freelance work?

Totally agree that YNAB's whole "give every dollar a job" thing makes way more sense when your income isn't consistent (freelance here too, it's a mess). EveryDollar felt too rigid for the feast-or-famine cycle, honestly.

Feast-or-famine cycle" is such a polite way of saying "I have no idea if next month I'm eating ramen or buying a new laptop." EveryDollar really acts like your income doesn't have mood swings.
