Why I Built a Free Budget App

Timbofosho · May 27, 2026

I’ve budgeted in spreadsheets for a long time, and they work… until they don’t.


At some point, keeping everything updated starts to feel more annoying than helpful. I looked at other budgeting apps, but a lot of them charge a monthly fee, and that just felt backwards. If I’m trying to manage my money better, I don’t want another subscription. So I built my own.


I made timluna.com/budget to be a simple budgeting tool that I actually want to use every day. No ads, no fees, no email confirmation, just create a username and password and start.


It’s meant for people who:

- budget in spreadsheets

- want something cleaner and easier to use

- don’t want to pay monthly for budgeting software


I use it myself every day, and it’s been genuinely helpful for me. So I figured it might be useful for other people too.

If that sounds like your kind of thing, give it a try:

If you do, I’d love feedback. Especially if you’re coming from spreadsheets or paid budget apps.
