🔧 Fix this
Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:
- A browser extension that restores the previous UI layout for web-based users
- A community-driven feedback dashboard that tracks specific UI regressions for developers
- A 'classic mode' toggle in app settings to revert to the previous interface version
- A browser extension that overlays custom progress bars on the web version of the app
- A community-maintained dashboard tool that pulls budget data via API to visualize spending
Real voices
“this updated app is literally unusable. I can’t see any of my progress bars, I have to click multiple times and things to see spending history”
“This app works well but the most recent update makes it really hard to tel if you’re on track with your spending. Please bring the progress bar back!”
“The circles are so much more difficult to read and make me want to cancel my subscription.”
“I guess I just want more customization. As it stands now, if another app were to offer YNAB any competition, I would happily jump ship.”
“Unfortunately the app keeps putting form over function and keeps hiding data behind extra taps or UI elements that look pretty in screenshots and demo videos.”
