NatWest Stockbrokers App

An app for customers to access their Stockbrokers Brokerline account and trade on the move. The ability to view orders, track portfolios and create a watch list, this app provides at-a-glance account summaries, up-to-the-minute trade prices, real-time quotes on stock you are monitoring and a detailed breakdown of your portfolio, current holdings, market value and overall gain or loss. It’s also highly secure to use.

This app combines an attractive and accessible interface with a high level of detailed information that is relayed very effectively, even on the small screen. But there’s still room for improvement. We would have liked the landscape orientation to have been utilized to allow users to interact with graphs to see the prices at specific points, and the option to transfer money in or out of your account is lacking. A promising start.

DebtMinder

Getting into debt is never a pleasant experience, and without essential planning it’s possible to let the problem get out of control. DebtMinder is an app that can analyze a user’s financial situation, develop a payo_ plan, and help dig them out of a hole. DebtMinder offers simple and effective data synchronization between iOS devices via the cloud, perfect for keeping team members updated on the current situation.

Data can also be synced with sister app BillMinder. Syncing data is reliant upon setting up an account, but if you don’t want to do this it is not required, as the app still works fine as a standalone product. DebtMinder calculates payo_ plans based on interest rates, starting dates and opening. The progress of a plan can be viewed in the Reports section of the app where line graphs and pie charts visualize your current financial status. For someone looking to wrestle some control over their vanishing finances, DebtMinder is an ideal app for turning the tide.

Divided Bill Splitter

When dining out with friends, splitting the bill can be a time-consuming pain and a cause of disagreements. Instead of breaking out a calculator app, Divided Bill Splitter can be applied to effectively split the cost. The straightforward interface allows for totals to be calculated with or without a tip, also making it more functional than the built-in calculator. If a straight split isn’t ideal, it’s similarly possible to apply separate costs for individuals within a group.

Divided Bill Splitter is a simple yet perfectly functional app that we would certainly recommend.

MoneySave Debt Calculator

Debt is never a fun situation, but in order to fix the problem it is necessary to meet it head-on. Using the free MoneySave Debt Calculator app, incoming funds can be compared against regular outgoing financial commitments. The simple questions provided by the app make it possible to create an action plan that can help remove unwanted debt. There’s some useful information on offer here, but the results generally tend to skew towards calling the team behind the app for extra advice – which, of course, isn’t free.
