I’ve been working on an app called Lång. A daily spending guide. It shows you what’s okay to spend based on how much needs to last how long.

For over a decade, I’ve thought about how most people seem to resist the advice about money. And also how all advice is based on the same idea: seeing where your money went and making monthly plans based on that.

I think people feel that this is a poor match for how money works. So they improvise. And because we tend to not discuss money with others, they improvise on their own. What this typically looks like is checking their balance and trying to pace things.

I’ve been trying to design the app around that. Providing support to what seems like a natural, instinctive approach to managing money.
