Keeping an eye on your finances always makes sense. This is even more true if you have little money available. Luckily, there are apps that can help you better plan and manage your finances. It's worth it even if you only spend a small amount of money. Especially if the costs of joint investments are to be managed.
For this reason, we are now introducing you to an app for sharing costs between several people, as well as an app for organizing your personal income and expenses.
Budget book MoneyControl
The MoneyControl financial app has an uncomplicated structure and offers a good overview. The current month is displayed on the main page as well as the previously specified budget, which is available monthly. You can also find the expenses you have already made there.
A green bar underneath grows more red, issue by issue. The amounts still available per month and per day can also be found in this area. The app also offers the “Bookings” and “Fixed bookings” areas.
The “bookings” display the income and expenses for each day. The “fixed bookings” include regular expenses such as rent. However, you will have to pay around three euros if you want to specify more than three fixed costs.
Other options include categorizing your income and expenses, creating notes, and attaching receipt photos. In a separate menu there is, among other things, the option of having so-called account statements created as a Word or PDF document. You can also synchronize your bookings so that they can be processed further on the computer.
Splid
With Splid, common costs can be shared fairly. For example, for NetBet online slots or going to the cinema, if someone has already bought the tickets for everyone. In addition, Splid is also ideal for sharing the costs of a shared apartment. No matter whether it's to buy a washing machine together or just to find out who has to buy the toilet paper next.
The app is characterized by the fact that it is kept very simple. This has a positive effect on speed. The group you created makes it easy to record which debts have been incurred. You can edit the inputs and outputs in the group either alone or with several people. Another plus point is the printable export file. This gives you an overall overview.
However, there is a small drawback in the number of groups. In the free version of Splid you can only create one group. For one euro the number increases to two, which isn't much. There is no longer a limit for two euros.
Conclusion
MoneyControl and Splid are very simple and functional. Although you have to invest money to get the best possible functionality, that's very little in both cases. In addition, the respective reviews in Apple's App Store and the Google Play Store speak for themselves. With better cost control, you are likely to recoup the money you invest.
Even if it's just a time saver, as you probably know, time is money. Another plus point is the low storage space requirement. This makes both apps a must-have for your money management.
