Quicken Simplifi is the lighter, cloud-based sibling of Quicken Classic, and it runs in a web browser as well as on phones. Rather than asking you to build a budget line by line, it starts with monthly income, subtracts bills and subscriptions, and builds a Spending Plan that shows how much you have left to spend each day. Quicken says the plan adapts to zero-based, envelope or 50-30-20 budgeting. Projected Cash Flow forecasts future balances and lets you run what-if scenarios, and the app adds savings goals, a Retirement Planner and investment tracking with cost basis and performance analysis. It connects to more than 14,000 institutions, and one other person can share the account. The regular price is $6.99 a month billed annually, with a $3.99 first-year offer at the time we checked. It lacks the reconciling and deep reports of the desktop product.
