Fantastic Envelope Budget App: “For those familiar with an envelope budget, or zero-based budget, this app really nails it. For a fraction of the price of competitors, it offers pretty much the same functionality, it's being actively developed, and the developers are super friendly and really prioritize user feedback and customer support. I've contacted the developer a few times and I have gotten always a positive response. Nice to see alternatives to established players come up and compete with them.”

Ratings and Reviews
“Step Aside, Big Names, Kualia Has It From Here”
After testing dozens of budget apps (to the point where my budget had a line for budget apps), I finally found one worth keeping—and reviewing.
This app combines a sleek, modern design with an intuitive interface that makes managing finances straightforward. What truly sets it apart is the ongoing development and the team’s dedication to user feedback. Igor, one of the developers, is incredibly responsive, offering helpful advice and quickly addressing questions.
The fact that they’re actively listening to users and continually improving makes this app a standout choice. Highly recommend giving it a try!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We're working tirelessly to make Kualia the best envelope budget / savings app we can. The best way we can do that, is by listening to our users & iterating as we gather feedback. Much appreciated, and thanks for coming along on the ride with us! - Noah @ Kualia
Awesome YNAB alternative/replacement
I bit the bullet and switched to Kualia from YNAB. After playing around with the app for a while, I’ve come to the conclusion that Kualia is an excellent YNAB replacement. While it IS missing a few features that YNAB has (reordering of accts, inability to sync with investment, retirement, loan accts - tho the app does say this is coming soon) it’s definitely something I can look past.
Both the UI and UX have been superior to YNAB in my opinion; a lot cleaner and with a more minimalist look.
Igor the dev has been excellent in responding to questions and concerns and the app does have an area where the users can vote on new features which is an awesome feature for new apps or services.
Much like any new app or startup tho, I do hope Kualia sticks with their plans to add new features while maintaining a fair (and hopefully lower) price compared to their competitors. Time will tell and until then, I’ll be using Kualia for the foreseeable future.
Developer Response ,
Hey there! Thanks for taking the time to write this kind review. We're glad to hear that Kualia has been an ammicable replacement to YNAB. We're honored to be held in the same regard as such an experienced player in the budgeting app space. To say the least, our plans are absolutely to continue adding features & maintain an accessible price point. This is a huge part of our ethos. Thanks again, and happy budgeting! - Noah @ Kualia
Awesome Money Management Tool
Kualia is awesome. It was super easy to setup. I love that basic spending and savings categories are created for me so I don’t have to manually make buckets for things like rent and utilities. They make connecting your accounts really quick, and the transaction history function is great to help stay on top of expenses. The app keeps a running total of everything you enter too so you always know exactly how you’re doing. If you’re looking for a simple way to track your finances this is the perfect place.
Developer Response ,
