The Mac users in the GT team use a dedicated budget app on the Mac to track their monthly expenses. So let’s discuss our picks in detail.
1. MoneyWiz Finance Tracker
MoneyWiz comfortably tops our recommendation list with a beautiful UI, powerful features, and support for the most popular banks. By default, the app takes you to the home screen with all your expenses on the right side and wallets on the left sidebar. You can create unlimited cash wallets, attach investment account from sources like Robinhood, Binance, and even integrate bank connections from popular institutions such as CapitalOne, Chase, and Wells Fargo. The app supports over 40,000 banks in 55 countries via 4 data providers. Click on the + icon, and you can easily create a transfer, expense, or income entry in the app. We like how all the buttons are big and recognizable to take advantage of a big screen. We are a fan of the calendar view. It lets you quickly glance at the expenses by date. Additions like the calendar view encourage you to use finance apps on Mac over mobile. Other features include automatic detection of transfers and refunds, several options, bulk edit, group accounts, multi-currency support, and more. The app is free to download. Premium subscription (£4.99/month or £48.99/year) enables syncing wiht your bank account and multi-device sync with a MoneyWiz Cloud account. Download MoneyWiz Finance Tracker
2. Money Pro
Money Pro continues to be one of the popular paid finance apps for Mac. The app comes bearing a default theme with a dark blue shade. It sure looks good on the Mac compared to a boring white theme from rivals. Money Pro focuses on bill planning, budgeting, and keeping track of your accounts. The developers claim that the app is suitable for home and businesses. The Calendar view is fantastic. You can mark days on the big calendar when your bills are due. You can can also schedule recurring bills with specific dates. Other notable features include the Today view, reminder for bills due, the ability to create a budget, budget rollover, and bank connection. You can split transactions and use custom icons to represent the income or expense. Money Pro offers two types of subscriptions include Plus and Gold. They start at $2.99 and $6.99, respectively. The biggest difference between the two plans is the bank connection feature. If you need that, then go with the Gold plan. Otherwise, you will be perfectly fine with the Plus plan. Download Money Pro
3. Money
The above two finance apps for Mac are suitable for power users that want every possible option to manage expenses. Money takes a rather simple approach to manage budgets and expenses. Open the app, create an offline account, and you are all set to add income and expenses entries. As for add-ons, one can create a custom budget based on preference, schedule expenses, create in-depth reports, and view all the transactions in one place. We like how Money takes advantage of desktop and offers more data to glace over a single screen. The keyboard shortcuts help you to quickly navigate through the app. Money app is free to download. You can purchase the premium version at $50 per year to unlock the bank connection feature that is available for more than 50 countries. Download Money for Mac

Toshl also offers a bank connection function. Add your bank details, and the app will fetch all the information from debit and credit cards. Export is where Toshl simply shines over rivals.
