And speaking of taxes and finances, I bet you are wondering – “Is there an app for that?” PC Magazine recently rated the Best Mobile Finance Apps for 2017 for personal finances and came up with a list of 8. Each of the identified apps has a strength area; depending on your needs, these apps can certainly supplement your financial tool set.
App Area of Specialization
Mint Spending Analysis
Venmo Peer-to-Peer Payment
LearnVest Financial Advice
Level Money Spendable Money
Qapital Saving
PayPal Payments
Budget Boss Budgeting
Stash Invest Investing
All have an iOS version as well as an Android version, with the exception of LearnVest and Budget Boss (iOS only) as of the time of the review (12/28/2016). Most of the apps are free, so you can try them out without spending any of your hard-earned coin.
Mint came out on top according to product reviewer Jill Duffy and is the “Editor’s Choice”. To quote the review, “The excellent Mint iPhone app gives you both close-up and big picture insight into your money in real time. It’s the best all-purpose personal finance app we’ve tested.” https://www.mint.com/
