FlowFi
Track Your Money,
Achieve Your Goals.
A minimal budget tracking app designed for students — built to turn money awareness into a daily habit.
The Problem
Money management is one of the biggest hidden stressors of student life. We mapped four core friction points.
No Daily Tracking
Students rarely log their daily expenses, losing visibility over where money goes.
Overspending
Without limits or feedback, casual spending quickly snowballs into stress.
Complex Apps
Existing finance apps are built for adults — cluttered, jargon-heavy, intimidating.
No Habit Loop
There's no gentle nudge to come back daily and build a tracking habit.
Our Objective
Four guiding principles that shaped every screen, interaction and word in the app.
Create a simple budget tracking app
Encourage daily tracking habits
Provide clear financial insights
Reduce financial stress
