If you like to travel and don't have unlimited supply of money this app will help you a lot. Make trip budget plans and track trip expenses in the most fast, easy and stylish way.
For the most fast planning new trip budgets the expenses are divided into categories to be added as quickly as possible. You can create several versions of the same trip and compare final estimated values. After planning you can switch from plan mode into spending mode and log actual trip expenses. You can compare the final trip budget cost with the plan at any moment and access full statistics for each trip expense category.
The app automatically converts expense values into base currency using public rates from open sources (like European Central Bank, etc) which are updated every day (internet connection is required). You can also set your fixed currency rates for each trip budget.
When you travel TripBudget uses GPS to track expense locations. When you enter money amount you can also set discounts and taxes. If you travel with friends you can enter information about expense sharing.
Incoming updates will also provide cloud synchronisation of trip budgets across your devices (including iOS client, which is coming soon).
Supported languages at the moment: English, Russian, Spanish, French, Dutch, Italian
If anybody want to help with translating interface to one of the following languages [ Bulgarian, Danish, German, Spanish, Finnish, French, Croatian, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Lithuanian, Latvian, Norwegian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Serbian, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese ] - there is web interface for easy and fast translation here: http://vitiy.info/localization/tripbudget/

Thanks. Note that the app is also aimed to create plans - not just log the expenses.
Any suggestions are welcome
That looks good app. I will try it. Thanks

Could you implement the ability to snap receipts in each category? I don't take trips like this app is designed for. But I travel for work. And it would be great to use this as an expense tracker and logger. If, you do add the ability to snap pictures of receipts. Could you make it work like the app Handy Scanner? By the way, this app has been designed excellently. Thank you.

Yes, the pictures are in plans - as ability to attach picture to any expense. I will try to check out this app you mentioned to get some hints. Thanks for your suggestions.
keyboard
I'll try it for my next trip but I already have a few questions :
Why did you implement a keyboard in the app ? I'm too used to swiftkey to use anything else (and I'm used to AZERTY not QWERTY so mistakes are guaranteed)
Is it possible to remove a trip ?
The transparency creates a great WOW effect but dometime it is not very clear what is in the interface and what is in the background.
Because of the keyboard I created a trip without name, now the buttons to list trips and edit trip are not available anymore.
The currency screen can be greatly improved, I think 2 lists might help. 1 list of currencies (full name and short name) and one list of countries (I have no idea of the short name of the currency in Hungary for example). A search field can be helpfull too.
I'm already trying the planning part and see how well I manage to stay in budget ^^

Thanks a lot for your suggestions - they are very valuable.
Keyboard, as it implemented now comes as part of my cross-platform engine - but, probably, i will attach standard keyboard soon as you are not the first who talks about this problem.
Removing trip is not yet possible - but i will add this function for sure. It will be possible from long touch in the list of trips (with confirmation) i suppose.
I will look into the problem with empty trip name. I expect it to be fixed easy.
About currencies - you are right about the need of country name there as hint. And its important to make usage as fast as possible. Also not all currencies are supported yet - only the public list from European central bank. Im in search of good public data for additional currencies.
Awsome design!!!
Vitiy, thank you for your prompt response in the Play Store. I am really enjoying this app and the potential it has. I also bumped up my rating in the store, because it is obvious that you are pouring yourself into the app and you are very proactive in addressing feedback. That is a great sign for the future of TripBudget!
I agree with the comments of @Jaytronics and @supermamie and was glad to see you address those comments. As far as my comments in the Play store, I am basically in the same boat as these two commenters, considering using this for both work and personal travel. The "reports" I mentioned really comes down to a way of either downloading, printing or exporting the data that you are already gathering with the app. It would be a shame to put in all of the budget and actual info and then have it locked away in the app.
That would go along with @Jaytronics point about the receipt captures. On a side note, and I am not a dev (at least not a good one), so I don't know the logisitics/challenges of OCR, but things like Neat Receipt and Evernote that integrate OCR are incredibly useful and productive tools. Perhaps you could consider that as a longterm idea. It would certainly take your app beyond anything that is out now.
As far as the "Fact" vs. "Actual" I see your point. Still, I think "Fact" is an odd label. Perhaps "Real" or "True" as in "real costs" or "true costs", which are recognized and common financial descriptions?
I'm sure you have a vision so my input is more ideas than requests. I know my ideas may not fit in with your vision and the app is already great. If you do plan on implementing an "expense" aspect to the app, there are plenty of examples out there, but one I have been using since 2008 or so is Xpenser. It is one of the more unique models, that I originally used on a Blackberry before anything else really existed. Worth looking at.

Thanks for your thoughts!
I thought about making reports visible through some web interface later (after cloud synchronisation will be implemented).
OCR would be nice indeed. Cant say anything about recognition libs yet, but its sure have to be included in longterm plans.
'Real' was my first variant, but my friend told me that Fact should be use instead because he saw it inside some Microsoft app Should i switch it back? Even more problems will arise when there will be more translations - and there will be no short words at all... I plan to make online translation service (as i made for my another application - http://vitiy.info/public-localizator-web-service-for-online-localization-of-applications/) to translate the app to wide variety of languages.
I will try to get as much useful features as possible from that app you mentioned, as it looks like old project with big budget. I will not create client for blackberry in near future (not sure i will make my engine to support this platform at all as their sells fall rapidly)
Thanks for your suggestions again

Again, thanks for a prompt reply, it is impressive.
I agree with your thinking regarding the reports, it will be a good addition and much more logical after you have finished the cloud implementation.
The OCR is really a wish list item, but if you can make it happen at some point, and make it work well unlike most other apps, your app would be hard to beat.
The Real, True, Actual label thing is just personal preference. I think you should go with what you feel comfortable with and the users can adapt. I will say however that these three terms are far more common in relation to costs/budget/etc. in the business world than Fact, which I've actually never seen used relative to an expense sheet or budget. Again, I think this comes down to your perogative.
The Xpenser app is as you mentioned a very mature product. It was actually 2008 that I started using it not 2003, but still it's been around awhile. I was definitely not recommending any development for Blackberry, just mentioning how far ahead of the game Xpenser was, having a mobile expense tracker before iOS or Android had any market penetration. It is really just a great example of simplicity married with functionality and might give you some ideas on various methods/opportunities for data gathering and input.
Anyway, I am going to use TripBudget over the next few weeks and see how it works for real world trips and planning. Best of luck!

About OCR - right, the main problem is to make it work well.
I will write about the list of ideas i might borrow from Xpenser when ill finish exploring it.
Please write any ideas which will come up while you will use the app in real situations. Im sure there will be a lot of things to add/fix.

Hi,
Nice app! Easy to use and has wonderful a UI.
Minor issue: No way to edit the planned time and actual time it happened? Anyway, will it be possible to have a time-based budgeting? It will be easier, at least for me, to edit expenses. For example,
7:00-8:00 Breakfast @ restaurant A (20 USD)
8:00-12:00 Island hopping (99 USD)
> boat fee from island A to B (20 USD)
> boat fee from island B to C (20 USD)
> boat fee from island C to D (20 USD)
> boat fee from island D to A (30 USD)
> tip (9 USD)
"Meal" is more generalized than Dinner.
There are other public vehicles here like jeepney, tricycle, and pedicab especially in rural areas ^_^ An additional means transport "Other" will be more apt, in my opinion. OR Land / Air / Water then a list of every means of public transport possible for each category.
And also, a weather forecast from forecast.io for the destination+specified travel date+a day before and after the trip will be handy. For example,
destination: Tokyo
travel date: Jan 2-5 2015
weather forecast: Jan 1-6 2015
Maybe it is too much to ask. I should start looking for a trip organizer to fully track the trip rather than a trip budgeting app But yours is the best looking one. You couldn't blame me for trying
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks a lot for your attention and suggestions.
There is very thin line between trip organizer and expense logger, especially when logger has strong 'plan' part. So i will add as many organizer features as i can while maintaining simplicity of the application.
Surely, the ability to change date of expense will be added (as its not a big problem to implement).
About the mode when you have some kind of timetable - i have to think how its possible to integrate it. Any suggestions are welcome on that part.
About 'Meal' - may be good word. May be to add restaurant / cafe. As for transport - may be ability to add custom categories would be nice (but im not sure what to do with icons yet).
Forecast is possible feature to add - but im not sure where to place it. And what to do if your trip contains several places?
Great looking app.
It would be great if you could add the following two features:
A) Sum all trips to show total spent and budgeted
i.e. I'm budgeting a multiple city holiday, with a total overall budget I'd like to track.
If the "The LIST OF TRIPS" page had a sum at the bottom for plan and Fact for each of the holidays would be perfect.
B) Also the ability to enter my own FX rates for the currency exchange.. i.e. the market rate isn't what I paid so the conversion to my local currency is to high or low...
Keep up the good work.
In a nutshell
A nifty app that will keep you up to date on any PC game deals & discounts.
In a bigger nutshell?
Bargain Bytes is a small, useful app with one purpose - to provide you with up to date information on PC game deals and discounts going on at the moment. It scans 15+ on-line retailers and has an easy to use filter for controlling which stores you want to see games from. So, if you only wish to look at deals from Steam & GoG, for example, you can do that.
You can also search for a specific game or DLC and see how's it's priced in the different stores and which ones have active discounts on it.
Cool, so which Game Stores does it work with?
• Steam
• GoG
• Amazon
• Humble Store
• Gamer's Gate
• GreenManGaming
• GameStop
• Desura
• Uplay
• Origin
• Direct2Drive
• Get Games
• GamesRocket
• Shiny Loot
• IndieGameStand
• Bundle Stars
• With more to come...

Next Big Feature
Our current priority is to add a Watch-List feature to the app. This would allow you to add games you wish to keep a track of to a separate list so you'll always be able to know if any of them have an active discount or just what their current price is. It would also notify you if a game on your Watch-List falls beneath a price point you have set.
Looks great, trying it out thx

Nice One
Nice start. Apart form the watch-list, the following can be included on the feature list for the future:
1. Option to filter out DLCs, especially in the 'Lowest Price' category
2. Price filter
3. Sort games by genre and popularity within it
4. Price history or at least mention of lowest ever price for a game
5. Mention of additional discount coupons that can be applied over a discounted price
Nothing new here that can't be found on various websites, but would be good to have it in a single app.

Sweet, will try this out and see how it holds up to some other apps I use.. Thanks non the less
oh and it would be nice if you could put the ads just on the bottom of the screen, instead of them scrolling with the actual content
Great app, but there are just some issues.
-Some games have the wrong thumbnail.
-"Cannot load this deal right now" for every app I try.

Point 1 is something we've noticed as well - it is a feature we've considered adding. We think the price filter idea will be nice for specific games (as in monitor if a particular game goes under a target price), so that's why we'll integrate it into the watch-list.
From your other points I can say that point 4 is on our to-do list - we're just wondering how to properly integrate it into the app.
Again, thanks for the feedback!
