Himp (Ringo Starr in Yellow Submarine: “I’ve got a hole in my pocket.”) is an app for iOS, iPadOS and macOS for recording and analyzing incoming and outgoing payments. It is intended to serve as a budget book and, in particular, to provide an up-to-date overview of income and expenses. To achieve this, it is important to record and classify as many payment transactions as possible. Himp provides the following contributions: • Management of any number of accounts (including cash accounts) • Interface for a (regular) import of account transactions from banking systems • Synchronization of all account transactions across all devices with the same Apple ID via private iCloud (if desired) • Classification of account transactions based on self-defined categories (including subcategories) • Classification according to (self-defined) booking types • Classification by users • Assignment to self-defined groups of payments (e.g. vacation expenses) • Convenient search for account transactions • Graphical analysis of payments at monthly and annual levels • Export of analyzes for further processing
