Yes, I have been working in development for many years before starting the project.
Triage the numerous suggestions we receive from users for new features. Select those that bring the most value to the highest number of users.
With all the time spent on maintaining this project, I keep using smartphones to a minimum. Just the usual productivity and communication tools. Signal for example.
I started to work on My Expenses in 2009 as an experiment with the first Android phone, the HTC Dream (G1).
Originally, My Expenses was conceived as a simple-to-use notebook for recording expenses that would allow exporting data to full-blown finance tools that run on PCs. Today, My Expenses has grown into a full-blown tool for managing personal finances.
My Expenses being an Open-Source app, has, from the start, attracted users that share with us the values of the Open Source community. This allows us to gather sophisticated contributions for new use case descriptions on Github, and lead to a very rich feature set, whereas similar apps concentrate on the only most basic aspects. For example, My Expenses allows sophisticated configuration on how data is grouped by periods of time.
The version currently in process of the publication introduces management of debts.
Explore the app, share with us what suggestions they have for new features, participate in the Roadmap Vote from the app's settings, and last but not least buy one of the Premium Licence Keys in order to allow us to sustain this project for another 10 years.
