Take Control of your Money
What would it be like to be completely in control of your finances?
How much have you spent so far this month, and on what?
How much have you saved?
How much of your income is unused this month?
And, how much of that money can you spend today to stay on track and grow wealth through savings?
$imple was developed to prevent overspending of monthly income, incorporate savings into the budget, and grow wealth and stability.
It has become increasingly more difficult to keep a handle on our money. With automatic monthly subscriptions and debits from multiple bank accounts and credit cards, it can be a challenge to keep our finances organized helpfully to ensure we are not overspending and instead saving for the future.
This application does exactly that - it helpfully organizes your income and expenses while encouraging you to stay more connected to your money.
Expense tracking is key to achieving financial security, independence, and peace. Through this awareness and regularly contributing to investments, you can quickly build stability and fortify yourself for sudden life changes.
Let your money work for you over time, we recommend Wealthfront savings that grow with you, automatically.
In 2015, the founder went to school for iOS Mobile Engineering and came up with the idea while working on a class project.
A podcast explained that keeping track of expenses was key to reducing stress, gaining wealth, and becoming financially independent. He wanted to use his development skills to help himself, his friends, and his family build better money habits and become financially secure. $imple was the result, creating awareness of spending through expense tracking and encouraging regular saving into investments with compound interest.
The original design had only a ➕ and ➖ button with a number in the middle of the two that indicated the cumulative all-time balance. However, recurring payments and income had to be repeatedly entered, which was tedious, so the application expanded to allow this functionality.
The app evolved to incorporate savings, a net worth wealth monitor, a daily allowance, charts to visualize spending by custom-created categories, a detailed financial picture history, AI to read receipts and enter details automatically, a tip calculator to help out on dates, a notepad (because why not?), etc.
From humble Excel spreadsheet beginnings, $imple became a full-featured mobile application that made keeping track of your money easy and surprisingly fun.
Now whoever wants to use the application, can download it to their phone and use it on their desktop computer free of charge.
