Personal Finance Apps for the iPhone - Mint + Expense Tracker

Mint iPhone App for Personal Finance

For those used to the great personal finance features on the Mint website, they can now find them on the Mint app (http://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/mint.com-personal-finance/id300238550) . This is a great application for helping people manage their personal and business finances. Mint allows anyone to track all their accounts on a single dashboard screen on your iPhone. It doesn’t matter if you have one, two or three bank accounts, or if you need to track PayPal accounts along with multiple credit card accounts. Mint is great to get a simple overview of all your account balances: instead of logging into separate websites, all your accounts are integrated into Mint. This makes checking financial details much detail easier. If you’re ever late on payments or need a way to keep tabs on your bank balance, this app can help keep all your financial data right at your fingertips for easy observation.

Spending Expense Tracker App

Tracking your expenses is just a vital part of any online business. Many people think that it's enough to keep credit card statements as evidence of expenses, but these are actually not enough for IRS purposes. Having an iPhone app that enables you to track your expenses can make expense-tracking a great deal easier. The Spending Expense Tracker App is a convenient tool that will help you keep track of your everyday expenses. This is especially important for business travelers, since it’s easy to forget getting a receipt when you are travelling.
As opposed to being forced to start QuickBooks and have it running while you are operating your business, you can just quickly enter your bills into an app, and the habit of doing this after each purchase will give you a reminder to ask for a physical receipt for tax purposes, instead of just relying on your credit card bills. You can use Spending Expense Tracker for both individual and business expenditures and to help keep an eye on where your money is going, and stay within your budget. This app can assist you to curb any poor spending habits through tracking your spending, and perhaps even save your self more money and spend more wisely as a result.
