Log entries combine expense tracking with data on the number of metrics consulted for decision-making. Each entry captures the amount, category, metrics reviewed, time spent, and whether a final decision was reached; photos of receipts can also be attached. The "Ledger" view displays the actual net balance and recent entries, while "Signals" uses a pie chart to show the usage proportion of various metrics and lists the frequency of repeated checks. "Decisions" employs bar charts to compare the time spent on each entry and line charts to track cumulative completed decisions, displaying corresponding values and entry names alongside the graphs. The "Trim Plan" calculates an "overload value" based on the number of metrics tracked, reuse frequency, and time spent without reaching a decision; it identifies metrics worth temporarily disabling and allows for the adjustment of recommended thresholds.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: HLZhiXuan at Free against Stash's $5.99. Stash's advantage is chart position (#4 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
