Hi all,
Plenty of people have asked about YNAB developing a Windows Phone app, and our answer has always (unfortunately) been that it's not within our budget. YNAB (the business) is run using a budget kept in YNAB (the software). If you run a business too, you may be interested in how we use YNAB to plan how our expenses work. You can sign up for our (free) YNAB for Business email course here: http://www.youneedabudget.com/business
Even though a Windows Phone app hasn't been within our budget, one of our enterprising users has developed an unofficial YNAB app for Windows Phones. It's called "Divvy". We can't support Divvy (we have no access to the source code, so we can't make any changes to it), but Tim is a great guy, and you can get more information about it, including where to download it and how to get support here: http://www.youneedabudget.com/blog/2014/divvy-for-ynab-is-here-an-unofficial-windows-phone-app-for-ynab/

Hey all, just a heads-up that we've rolled out a new release of YNAB. This release is primarily a bug-fix release, to deal with some reported issues. Steam should automatically update you to the latest version.
Don't forget to check out our Free Classes, we've added a couple of new ones this month!
Release Notes
New:
Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-C will now clear selected transactions on the register screen even if the focus is in a text field. 'C' still works when the focus is not in a text field.
Better:
Added a check and warning for attempts to rename payees to 'Transfer :' on the Payee Settings screen.
Removed 'Restart Later' option when toggling diagnostics, preventing a weird half-diagnostic state.
The 'Move to Account' option on the register transaction edit menu is now disabled if there are no other accounts to move the transaction to.
'Save a version' will now always save a new version, even if there's been no changes since the last save.
The Create Budget button is now disabled until a name is entered, preventing blank budget names.
Using Up and Down arrows on the budget page now cycle from top to bottom and vice versa when reaching the start or end of the rows.
Renamed 'Year to Date' filter to 'This Year', to more accurately represent how it works.
Clearing a transaction by mouse now occurs on mouseup, rather than mousedown.

The 'Edit Payees' button at the bottom of the payee selector dropdown now jumps to the currently entered payee on the Payee Settings dialog when clicked.
Using 'c' to clear a transaction now works while editing after changing the transaction date
Fixed:
Having a positive Available to Budget combined with using the Indian Rupee would cause the budget columns to be misaligned with the category list.
Fix for Arabic text sometimes causing a crash when viewing reports.
Fixed an error where uncategorised and unaccepted transfers to off-budget accounts could be ignored when calculating the uncategorised row in the budget.
Fixed a grammar mistake in a message preventing you from moving reconciled transactions.
Finishing or canceling reconciliation now correctly applies the existing date filter to the register.
Unmatched transactions now retain their original flag colour.
The All Outflows summary tooltip on the budget screen now includes split transactions.
The automatic, rolling backups could get deleted too frequently, especially if you ran YNAB very frequently. From now on, YNAB will keep backups hourly for a week, daily for a month, and every 15 days from then on.
Fixed a bug that could cause YNAB to stop auto-saving in some circumstances after a Fresh Start. (It would still save on exit, but would not publish changes to other devices or save work every 5 seconds as designed)
Added more space so the date filter is not cut off when printing the account register.
Register keyboard shortcuts are no longer handled if the Preferences or Budget Setup screens are showing
Unmatching a reconciled transaction via the 'Unmatch' button no longer removes the imported transaction.
Removed 'YNAB 3' reference from sample CSV file

You Need A Budget 4 is Now Available on Steam and is 25% off for a limited time!
Praised across the Internet as hands-down the "best budgeting software", You Need A Budget (YNAB) cuts to the chase with your finances. The software focuses you on the foundation of your finances: the Budget. Experience has shown that when your budget is intact, and functioning correctly, everything else takes care of itself (the bills are paid on time, retirement contributions are made, and unnecessary debt is eliminated).
