Comparison of android apps

This page lists all the android applications that can be used to manage shared expenses. The goal is to keep the good ideas and to kick the wrong ones.

Feel free to add your favorite app :)

The good

  • The name is easy to remember
  • There is a tutorial the first time you launch the app
  • Manages the "weight" of a person (someone with a child for instance)
  • System of icons to see really quickly who paid. Presentation the other way around for each bill. Easy to use and to read.
  • Stats on the categories etc.
  • Ability to add participants directly on the "add a bill" screen.
  • Possible to get the totals easily
  • Send a mail to friends easily
  • Possibility to have multiple payers

The bad

  • Money selection: who cares ?

The good

  • On the bottom, a bar says me what I'm currently having as cash flow.
  • Export / Import of CSV
  • Different ways to see the expenses (monthly, weekly, daily)

The Bad

  • The design is kind of ugly.
  • We first arrive on a list of actions we can do, which aren't very explicit: "Add detail", "daily list", "weekly list", "monthly list", etc.
  • This thing is talking about… books ? And I don't know what it's supposed to be
  • Accessing to the different levels of views (monthly, weekly, daily) shouldn't be available directly with icons on the first menu. Using a different way could be useful.
