iXpenseIt Review

by on March 17, 2010

While keeping track of your expenses – either domestic day-to-day spending or splashing out while on work trips – is hardly the most fun thing to do in the world, it is a dull necessity. So anything that can make the chore less painful is generally welcome, which is exactly what iXpenseIt for iPhone does.

Setting up your budget is a doddle (even if sticking to it might not be!) and you can then merely input your daily outgoings to keep a close eye on your spending by category. The app is also password protected and all of your information is easily backed-up, just in case you get your iPhone nicked or leave it in an unlicensed minicab after too many pints after work on a Friday night.

Rather nattily, the app also gives you the option of taking pictures of any receipts that you get, which could come in pretty handy when you put that expenses claim in to accounts. We find that most accountants tend to prefer an ordered list of expenses over a carrier bag full of tatty old receipts.

Overall, iXpenseIt wins out over the many other budgeting apps out there because it is both easy to use and at the same time fully customisable so you can break your budget planning down however you like.
