This is something I'm going to eventually code for myself, because I SUCK at remembering my bills, but I'd like to implement it into the app as a service if it's something that people would find useful.

I would probably just integrate your app with the standard windows mobile calendar to schedule and manage reminders with useful info in them (amount, due date, account, etc.). Less complicated that way I think, and no need for running background services.

The problem with the calendar is that if you pass the date something is due, you get no more reminders. With the service running, it would still pop up an item on the 16th that was due on the 15th that was not yet marked as paid. This is one of the frustrating things about the calendar. I have a couple bills that have 5-10 day grace periods on them, but they're DUE on a certain day, and I'd like to be reminded of that particular day, not the end of the grace period.

If the calendar was more versatile in this regard, I would do it.

That's another great idea.

I'm kinda mixed up on my versions, but I thought 2.1 did this. If not, 2.2 definitely fixes this. The budget page is now refreshed automatically when any adjustment to income or expenses is made.

If it isn't in 2.1, you should be able to select another tab, then go back to the Budget tab to recalculate it. I'm pretty sure that it was updated when the tab was selected in the old code. Sorry about that, and thanks for reporting.

I have had this for only 20 minutes so far, and I must say this is one awesome app. Thanks so much!!!

Love the app, but for some reason when I edit one of my expenses it doesn't reflect in my disposable income and total expenses until I go through about 5 steps... Just wondering if you could add a refresh option...

Crap...I guess that answers my question wondering if that version had that fix.

The new version will not do this. I have the budget tab auto-updating whenever any expense or income is added or edited.

BTW, sorry this is taking so long, guys. I've been really busy at work and I had to go to the bar last night for the NCAA tourney and drink $2.50 22oz drafts all night.

no apologies needed, that next version is shaping up nicely!!
