Version 2 is here! What is new in this version? In a nutshell, everything! Do you borrow money? Do you lend money to your friends? Maybe your family is on your mobile family plan ( you know that mobile plan that no one actually knows what they owe the plan owner each month). If one or all of these fits you, then you're going to love owed! Here is just a sample of some key features: • FREE to use and no sign-up requirement. Seriously who doesn't like free? This also means you should limit your list of demands on what the app needs to do. Remember, it's FREE. • Keep track of multiple entries for each person. If you're like me, you have that one friend (Carl) that is constantly borrowing something. Now you can keep tabs on Carl and what he owes you. • Use your contacts to create new people. Now it's super easy to add Carl's information to the owed app. (Thanks Apple Contacts) • Set Notifications. I promise this time they work! • Send email or SMS reminders. Email not your thing? No worries. Send that person a text message directly from the owed app! • 3D touch enabled Maybe you have it, maybe you don't. But if you do, good for you, as owed is now using 3D touch! • Update person's information. You know, like if Carl tries to change his legal name to Chuck. Well bad news, Chuck. Owed makes it really easy to update a contact's name. • View the history of your statements. If Chuck tries to argue that he didn't borrow more money on top of what he already owes you for lunch, now you can show him the exact day he borrowed money for that Happy Meal. If you like what you see, please rate the app! Thanks for checking out the app, we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Debt Tracker turns "I think I owe about…" into an exact number, a date, and a plan to get there. Add what you owe, from credit cards and student loans to car finance or the money you borrowed off your sister, and see the whole picture on one screen: your total, what you're owed back, what interest costs you each day, and the date you'll be debt-free. A PLAN THAT TELLS YOU WHAT TO PAY Enter each debt's balance, rate and minimum payment, pick a strategy and a monthly budget, and Debt Tracker builds your plan: exactly what to pay on each debt, every month, until you're free. SIX STRATEGIES, COMPARED ON YOUR NUMBERS Snowball for quick wins. Avalanche for the lowest interest. Consolidation for one simple payment. Plus Highest Interest Cost, Cash Flow, or your own order. See which clears your debt soonest and cheapest, then make it your plan. WHAT IF Try a raise, a bonus or a tax refund and watch your debt-free date move. WATCH THE BALANCE FALL The Progress tab charts your balance against your plan and tells you when you're ahead. Streaks and badges mark the way. LOG A PAYMENT IN SECONDS Your minimum is already filled in, so logging a payment is one tap. Made a mistake? Undo it, or delete it from your payment history. NEVER MISS A DUE DATE Get reminded before each due date, so late fees don't undo your work. A calendar shows what's due this month and what's already paid. WIDGETS AND SIRI See your balance and next due date on your Home Screen and Lock Screen. Ask Siri how much you owe, or log a payment without opening the app. MONEY YOU'VE LENT, TOO Debt Tracker keeps track of what friends and family owe you alongside what you owe, so your net position is honest. EVERY DETAIL IN ONE PLACE Tag each debt as a credit card, student loan, mortgage, car loan, medical, tax or personal loan. Add the lender, account reference, contact and notes. Track credit limits, 0% promotional rates and rate changes coming up. Group debts into categories that make sense to you. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-up. No bank logins. Your debts stay on your device unless you choose otherwise. Lock the app with Face ID, and turn on iCloud sync to use it on iPhone and iPad, in your own private iCloud, never on our servers. Import from a spreadsheet or export to CSV any time. ANY CURRENCY, ANY LANGUAGE Every world currency, 28 languages, Dark Mode and Dynamic Type. FREE TO START Track up to 5 debts with your debt-free date, reminders, payment logging, streaks and badges, the calendar, a Home Screen widget, sharing and export, free.
