Two people, one clear picture of the money โ without the spreadsheet and without the arguments. CoupleExpenses is a shared budget and expense tracker built for exactly two: you and your partner. Add an expense in two taps, see where the month actually went, and save toward something together. ONE SHARED SPACE FOR TWO Invite your partner with a single link. Every expense either of you adds appears for both of you instantly โ and your partner gets a notification the moment it happens. ALWAYS KNOW WHO PAID Each of you has your own color. Every expense shows whose card it was, or that you shared it, and the home screen shows how the month splits between you. No splitting math, no running tabs. ADD AN EXPENSE IN TWO TAPS A big amount field, colorful category icons and one tap for who paid. Attach a receipt photo or make it repeat every month. Long-press any category to rename it, recolor it or pick a new icon. SEE WHERE THE MONTH WENT A category ring chart, your daily average, the change versus last month and what is left of your income. BUDGETS THAT WARN YOU EARLY Set a monthly limit per category. Bars turn amber at 80% and red when the limit is spent, with a pace line that shows where you should be today. SAVE FOR DREAMS, SIDE BY SIDE Shared goals for a trip, a deposit or a new sofa, with progress rings, a deadline countdown and how much to put aside each month. Savings stay separate from spending, so your totals stay honest.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WhoPays at none against CoupleExpenses's 1. CoupleExpenses's advantage is update cadence (daily vs weekly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
