Bills for iPad [iPad Only]

COST: 99 cents
CATEGORIES: Business, iPad, Finance, Native, Organization
..RELEASED: 6/17/10, VERSION: 1.0 -- RATING: 3-1/2 Stars..

Developer Snapshot: "Plan and track your expenses every month! Brilliant iPad-oriented interface will remind you of a real-life office."

With money so tight nowadays, and some of us without jobs, we need to keep a tight rein on our expenses, and track them as best as we can. Bills for iPad is a useful tool for this purpose and is especially easy on the eyes while you crunch numbers with the large screen display. Use the nice, big calendar to track how much money you have spent compared to what you should have spent. Track overdue payments, planned payments and check what has already been paid off.

Bills for iPad is laid out in a special way. Each element appears like real office objects. The flip board shows the list of your transactions. A big projector screen shows you a calendar view of the current month. Office folders are provided just for extra features. Drawers are meant to serve as sorting filters. Additionally, when you add or edit entries, you will see a memo book page. A few of the choice elements of Bills for iPad are as follows:

- great special iPad oriented interface design (real office room)
- easy management of expenses and bills
- quickest work with entries
- filters for paid, planned and overdue payments
- easy export to HTML and CSV (Excel)
- PIN code available (for privacy protection)

Some of the special features that I like are that when overspending, the green bar above the calendar helps explain where that pesky money went. The extra features such as exporting to HTML and CSV (Excel), and using a PIN code to protect entries are an added bonus. Bills for iPad is a really helpful tool to keep your money where it belongs, in your savings or checking account!

Developer Snapshot: "Temperament is defined as the characteristics of a person's behavior that are more or less consistent over time."

You've probably taken a quizz or two recently on what sort of character you are, or what sort of personality you have. You know how magazines and such are loaded with this kind of self-analysis. What's your temperament? lets you figure out your particular temperament based on a series of questions and relevant information. These character types have been identified and classified, forming the basis of the theory of the "Four Temperaments" which are known as Sanguine, Choleric, Melancholic, and Phlegmatic.

Take this opportunity to discover your strengths and weaknesses, and let your friends take this test of temperament too! When you've narrowed yourself down to a specific type, you can then share this information on Facebook. Your friends will certainly have something to say about that!
