One thing that people are having difficulty these days is keeping track of their cash. Spending and failing to balance their expenses with their incomes have placed a lot of people at a loss, mainly because they are not aware of the real score of their money and finances. But Wesabe aims to change all that with this free application that helps consumers track and manager their money via their iPhone or iPod Touch.

Wesabe’s iPhone app lets members: view all of their bank and credit card accounts in one place; track their cash spending on the go; edit, categorize and tag their purchases; and set up and monitor spending targets via their phone. When consumers input a purchase, the app saves time on typing by offering up the names of the closest merchants, using the phone’s GPS and Yahoo! Local APIs.

To download the application, visit the iTunes App Store at http://www.itunes.com/apps/wesabe. Wesabe members simply log in using their existing credentials, while new members can sign up for a Wesabe account via their phone in less than a minute and begin adding cash transactions. Bank and credit card accounts can be added at www.wesabe.com. Account balances and transactions sync every time the iPhone app launches, ensuring the most up-to-date information.
