Best app for managing money

    I'm looking for recommendations for apps for managing and tracking my money. I've downloaded a few different apps at this stage, but none are quite what I'm looking for. So I'm hoping someone here will have some good tips.

    I obviously want the ability to track expenditure, but the main feature that I want is the ability to set up multiple accounts (representing my savings accounts, current accounts, credit cards etc) and track money in and out.

    Thanks in advance.

    Get YNAB, you won’t regret it. I’ve used it for 4 years and it tracks all my personal and business transactions and accounts.

    Just use excel and format it whichever way you like.

    This.

    I have a couple of spreadsheets on the go and on the first of every month I download the previous month's transactions and update it. Different tabs for different things such as utilities, grocery shopping, insurance premiums etc. I am able to see at a glance the running totals for each category for the year.

    Excel would obviously work, but I want something on my phone that is easily accessible.

    I’ve tried and downloaded quite a few apps now. So far, the best one I’ve found is Money Lover. Some of the functionality is designed a bit oddly, but I’ve been able to make it do everything I want, so I’m happy with it for now. It has multiple “wallets”, which I’ve set up for my various accounts & credit cards. I can set up recurring transactions, traansfer beteeen wallets, track based on income/expense type etc.
