iPhone app for tracking expenses offline

Tania, You might have a look at the MONEY app. It seems to be a very comprehensive app, and it's possible to get a Desktop companion for it. I downloaded it recently (after evaluating many similar apps), but haven't started using it yet. Cheers!

Tania, If you'd like to consider not only iPhone Apps but also computer software, the BEST application that I know of is Quicken: http://quicken.intuit.ca/personal-finance-software/index.jsp I've been using it for years and it's extremely powerful and useful. It includes not only functions to track expenses, but also budgeting (they list "Taking a well-earned vacation" on the home page). There used to be an App for Palm OS devices called Pocket Quicken which synchronized flawlessly with the desktop, but unfortunately that's no longer available. Pocket Quicken was made by Landware, but unfortunately Intuit terminated the arrangement. If you want an App that syncs with Quicken, you might have a look at PocketMoney (Catamount Software), as I believe it's capable of sharing data with Quicken. It's been around for awhile, and the developer supports and upgrades the App frequently. That's another App I'm considering for my iPhone, as it will sync with the desktop. Good luck!

I downloaded one called Trip Book - haven't used it yet, but will for an upcoming trip...it allows you to do a budget and has diff categories like food, transport, laundry, shopping and more, then a daily expense - and you can change the currency - $, euro, pds and others, and you can do an analysis of where the $ went...not sure if it's geared more to the business traveller, but it looks handy for reg travellers as well. Works offline. Not sure if I paid for it, or if I got it thru free app of the day. You can add diff trips as well - looks like a handy app - I've always wanted to know how much we spent on our trips.

Thank you for all your suggestions, I am definitely going to check each of them out. I want to keep track so I can determine when I can afford to travel again!! Need the hard facts to convince my husband! :)
