What do you expect from a personal finance app?

I m building Controol, a minimalist app to help people spend without guilt by knowing exactly how much they can afford not just tracking what they already spent.

Most finance apps focus on graphs and past activity. My vision with Controol is different:

You enter your income, and it s automatically split into boxes based on percentages you define (like the 50/30/20 method).
You register your expenses, and the app tells you if that expense fits the available amount in the right box.
You don t micromanage categories you manage limits, clearly.

I launched solo — and made it to the Top 5 today 🚀

Hey Product Hunt!
This morning I launched my first solo product ever: Controol a minimalist finance app built around one idea:

Know how much you can spend, not just what you already did.

No team. No paid ads. No launch list. Just late nights and building something I personally needed.
I honestly didn t expect much but hours later, it made it to the Top 5 of the day

The feeling? Wild.
Strangers are connecting with the mindset behind it, and it's been amazing to read their comments.
