I found out about Firefly III a couple of weeks ago and wanted to try, but it seemed a bit more than what I needed. That's when I found out about Actual, which does seem to be an interesting solution. My issue with it is that they seem to have made the web version (intentionally?) not compatible with mobile, and their iPhone app requires a subscription of ~$10 a month. At first I thought I'd give it a try then felt sort of cheated. I don't mind paying for a solution but this seems like a shady way to charge money for me. Also I'm not a fan of subscription.

Anyway, I gave Firefly III a try and now I'm very happy that I did. I think those extra features that seemed too complicated at first are proving to be pretty useful.




actual is "going open-source", but "Unfortunately, the mobile apps are going to be deprecated"
