Keeping Accountable

Saving for a Goal

If you need a bit of help saving for a big purchase, a wedding, or a holiday, you will have different requirements to that of a run-of-the-mill budget app. There are many apps available that allow you to enter in all the details of your savings goal, and will send you words of encouragement to keep you on track.

Smart and Connected

If you want an app that doesn’t require much input from you, you may prefer to download one that connects to your bank account and tracks your income and transactions automatically. Be sure to read all the fine print when you download an app that connects to your bank, as you do not want to get yourself into any trouble! Mint is a widely trusted app that will connect to your bank and tick along in the background with little information required from you.
