Budgeting App Toshl Finance Updated To Include Income Tracking
April 12, 2012
I've been using Toshl Finance to track my budget for over a year now, and I love it. My husband and I used to argue about who was spending how much on what, until we decided to set a budget that we would both be responsible for sticking to. We started on paper, but, you know, that requires a lot of math, adding up long columns of numbers. So, when I found the free app Toshl Finance, we decided to give it a shot. Originally, the app was intended for only one person to use, but I discussed with the developer how my husband and I needed to sync our spending, and they vastly improved the app's sync capabilities to allow this. I enter expenses on my iPhone, my husband enters his spending on his iPhone, and it all syncs up neatly. This is pretty much sufficient for us, but still, I'm excited that Toshl has released an update with lots of new features even for free users, namely income tracking and use of the website. So, here are the latest features, straight from the Toshl blog:
So, what are you waiting for? Essentially all of the negatives I mentioned in my original review have been fixed. Toshl Finance is also available on a number of non-iOS platforms as well, so your significant other doesn't have to be on an iPhone to share. With the website now available even to free users, you and/or your significant other only need a computer, no smartphone necessary. You can see all the great features you get for free, but there are even more features available with a pro membership, which runs about $20/year. [gallery link="file"]Incomes
