Thanks to new apps available, you can do more of that work on the go. Here are several apps to download to your phone so you can keep track of your personal expenses and find ways to save money.

 

Mint

One of the first personal finance apps, Mint is still one of the best. You set up a profile and attach it to your checking accounts, credit card accounts and even savings accounts. Once that is completed, the app automatically tracks your spending and sends you alerts when you are close to your budget or near a zero balance. It even provides tips to help you save money, and it’s all accomplished in easy-to-read charts and graphs.

 

Level Money

With Level Money, you can connect your bank account to the app where it will calculate expenses and income to provide suggestions on your spending. The app gives you a suggested savings amount and deducts it from your budget. If you choose, you can automatically roll any leftover money to a savings account.
