Bill Mate – Budget Tracking App
Bill Mate is a project that I started a while back. When I first came to the United States, I kept track of my roommates bills in a notebook. It slowly evolved into a website. At the moment, the current setup I have with my roommates has a couple components, a “Bills” google form and a “Payments” google form. Since I am the one paying all the shared expenses, its pretty straightforward; when we receive a bill, I upload it to a spreadsheet via the form, the form is linked to another form that does the split calculation, from there it goes to an html page to my roommates can view their ‘totals’ on a private site that I set up for us. At certain dates, an automatic email is sent to them with their current totals so they can see how much they owe me.
I really enjoyed working on that, so I decided to turn it into an app. I built an app that does everything my current ‘website’ does but specifically for Apple devices. There was a slight learning curve as I have never coded in swift before.
