[Dolby]

So many out there - can someone maybe recommend one for me?

I'm looking for something simple ... but would be cool sync Android <> PC

 

[powermzii]

I see it reads your SMS notifications. Does it understand when the bank sends multiple transactions in one SMS?

Mint seems pretty good - but says incompatible with my device (S3)? :/

Think its not available in SA. Guess you can try to side-load the apk...

Expenza.s new update is a complete **** up. It's lost all my transaction details and categorisation. And it does a stupid cloud sync thing all the time. Unlike!

On the computer, I use MoneyDance (Mac, Windows, Linux), which syncs perfectly with HandyBank (via Dropbox, or network). Neither are free, but they're not expensive either. You can enter transactions on either computer or Android device, and sync with the other whenever you want.

I am using Expense Manager, basic, but gets the job done

So this ExpanZa is a no good option then....?

It was a good option until yesterday. But, I just got an email from their CTO apologising and promising to fix it

 

[memphis32]

Oh good... Well, if they give me issues, I'll go to their offices, which is around the corner from my house....

 

[MDE]

Couldn't find it on the google app store...

Ahhh, capetonians... that explains it

Me too... How does this work?

Maybe they've pulled it while they fix the ****up. It's pretty bad. All my data is lost.

 

[memphis32]

That could possibly be... From the looks of it, it's a good program. But, the proof is in the pudding...

What phone do you have? It might be incompatible... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=coza.apposition.finance.expenseza&hl=en

Incidentally, they sync all transactions on your device to their backend as of the new version.

I'm not happy with this, and have uninstalled the app and asked them to delete all my information.

With no option to turn it off?

Correct, as it stands.
