A little help finding a personal finance app

[phoenix927]

I've been using android devices for a few years now but recently i finally got my wife to get rid of her blackberry. I gave her my moto droid and i got the droid x.

I've been looking for a personal finance/budget app that we could both use and they would sync together. My guess is I would need one that syncs with a website or server. I just want to know if anyone has any ideas or if anyone has tried this.

clearcheckbook.com

for multi-user sync you will need to sign up for the prem version but it works great.

Try Mint? It's from Intuit (quickbooks).

I second mint! It was great before intuit bought them out and they haven't managed to ruin it yet.

I third mint. It is awesome. It saved me 400 dollars in credit card fees this past year alone. Saved me nearly as much on brokerage fees by recommending I leave Etrade. It is amazing.

ive been thinking about mint. is it really safe? i dont like the diea of the 3rd party having my accoutn name and password to my banking. i read the stuff where tehy say its secure and how they cant charge my account or anything. im just nervous about them sharing my info even accidently.

My thoughts are, if it weren't safe, the banks wouldn't let them access that information.

I might be wrong though lol

the banks aren't letting them, i don't think, you are giving them access with your username/password, they are "logging in" as you and parsing the information to their site. i could be wrong though...

that's how i interpreted it. also why i did not sign up even though i downloaded the app. i wish pnc would just release an app like it.

Mint is very safe and secure.

I believe you would just both use the same username and add all of your joint/single accounts to it.
