pennies
This could be the only reason why people buy an iPhone. It’s such a simple application and for less than $3 it’s a steal.
Not only does Pennies look great, it’s simple to use and helps you keep track of the money you spend on the go. It’s not a full financial app but, honestly, who wants that? Really? Think about it for a second. All you really want a financial app for is to help you understand where your money is going and help you not overspend. There is no need to put in rent and bills… those are recurring bills that you can manage online with your bank or with a desktop app like Cha-Ching! or something.
This little $2.99 app helps you save money by giving yourself a budget for the month on all those little things in life that seem to suck your money away.
