Today I released a nice little app I wrote during last few weeks. It is available on App Store and soon will be available on Google Play.
The app allows you to track total value of several account balances in different currencies in master currency of your choice.
App is written using Xamarin Forms and C# and uses currencylayer.com API to get currency exchange rates.
Future ideas
I have been fiddling around for many years with the thought of Net Worth tracker – an app which will be focused on your net worth and also accumulation of wealth rather than expenses and budget.
This app is an MVP-lite of this idea. I might decide to develop it into these directions:
- Balance over time and reports – to see visibly how your net worth is being developed.
- Transactions – while I do not see the app as expense tracker (for that you can use Budget Box from Apps of the Future) one would still need transaction support to elegantly track balances
- Account groups and hierarchy – ie. Personal, Capital, College Fund etc. if it is more than 1 account
- Cloud sync
- Native iPad, Mac and Windows apps (lets see if MAUI will allow a native jump from Xamarin Forms mobile into truly cross-platform experience)
- Web app (lets see if Blazor will pick up and allow good SPA experience using C# as web language)
- Stock and crypto portfolio and prices sync
- Reports (especially on desktop and web versions but also everywhere)
These are my current thoughts on where this app could go from here. The key here is that App should be usable and useful at any stage and after any of the developments above.
Stay tuned.
