Technology has ingrained itself into our lives because of the way it makes day-to-day activities exponentially easier. Smartphone apps allow you to lock your doors when you’ve already left home, keep track of your appointments while on the run, or have groceries delivered right to your front door. Smartphones have also made it possible to have all of your financial information right at your fingertips. We’ve outlined several of the best money apps that you can use for everything from protecting your debit card and staying on budget to saving more money and managing your kids’ allowance.

I want to … Get Rid of My Checkbook

Accounts2
If you’re ready to break free from manually balancing your checkbook with pen and paper, you need to check out the Accounts2 checkbook register app. With this app you can:

  • Track your checking, savings, and credit card activity.
  • Set-up reoccurring ledger entries (such as your rent or student loan or paycheck deposits), as well as individual deposits or payments.
  • Track all monthly spending and sort into categories for a big picture of your spending habits.

Touch ID and Face ID safety features are available, along with digital backup copies of your records. The app cost $2.99 to download. Only available for iOS devices.

I want to . . . Grow My Savings

Acorns
This is one of the best money apps you can use when you’re trying to build emergency savings, save for a downpayment on a home, or just buy yourself something special. What’s best about Acorns is that it’s low-stress money management — you’re saving money without really thinking about it.

For every purchase you make, Acorns will round up to the next dollar and the extra money will be saved. When you buy your daily coffee for $3.25, an extra $0.75 will go into savings. You can add more money into your savings when you:

  • Set amounts for automatic deposits every day, week, or month.
  • Add an occasional lump sum (from work bonus, tax return, birthday money, etc.) to savings.
  • Get cash-back deposited into your account for shopping with certain brands.

Your savings are atomically deposited into an investment account for future growth. There is a $1 fee per month for the basic plan.

Wally

  • Get a 360° view of your money — what you earn, what you spend, and what you have the potential to save.
  • Scan your receipts to keep track of how much money you spend daily and what you’re spending it on.
  • Enter a monthly income, track how much you spend, and see how much you’re on track to save
