Ask HN: What do you use to track your expenses?

3 pointslumpysnake12y ago1 comments

I personally use a spreadsheet, but I am considering to switch for an app. I tried Mint, but don't like the fact that it must connect to my bank accounts before it can be useful. I prefer to log my transactions by hand, so I have full control over my data.

So what application do you use (if any) and what do you like and dislike about it?

I like Mint. Not a fan of having to connect to your bank accounts, as you've pointed out, but the convenience factor weighs more heavily in my case.

I've heard good things about YNAB (http://www.youneedabudget.com/) but I've never tried it out myself.
