Wondering if people have any apps in this category that they absolutely love? Here’s what I’ve used in the past:
iExpenseit
Probably my favourite budget tracker since it was featured in early 3G/3G S adverts. Was abandoned for a few years but was recently updated.
However, doesn’t have a Mac or Watch app which is a deal breaker for me.
Jumsoft Money
Was good in its day but hasn’t had an update in 3-4 years still hasn’t been updated for large screen iPhones. Still no Watch app. Also, one thing that really bugs me about this app is I couldn’t select multiple categories for a single category, so toothpaste (toiletries) and groceries (groceries) couldn’t be under a single transaction. Developers have been promising a major update for years now. But I’ll believe it when I see it.
MoneyWiz
Currently what I’m using now, but it seems to be in a bit of a funny spot. Version 2 has the option for upfront or subscription (for their premium version) which makes me think they’ll go subscription only for version 3.
Also, their Watch app is still watchOS 1 and the developers have made it perfectly clear that updating the Watch app is an ultra low priority. I’d be surprised if it happens before iOS 11/watchOS 4. I actually use the Watch app quite a bit.
Also, they’ve built their own sync engine and use Dropbox for receipt sync. And I think I’d prefer something that syncs over iCloud (not a deal breaker.)
Are there any apps I should be checking out?
Requirements:
iPhone, iPad, Watch and Mac Apps
Ability to split transactions across multiple categories
Ability to attach receipts to transactions. Bonus if it converts them to a low resolution but perfectly readable JPEG like MoneyWiz does. Doesn’t need to sync across devices but would be nice.
I may or may not move away from MoneyWiz. I have some frustrations with it, but it does do a lot of things well.
