Show IH: No-Code Travel Expense Tracking App

Hey Indiehackers 👋,

My fiancée and I are travelling at the moment for 6 - 12 months and are trying to solve travel-related challenges we face with no-code tools and primarily glideapps.com (as long time google sheets users we love what we can make using our existing competencies and improve them along the way).

One of the challenges we faced is to pro-actively track our spending and make sure we stay within our budget, otherwise the travel plans will be cut short 😅

So we built an app that allows us to quickly (less than 10 seconds per entry) input past, present and future expenses, so we always have an up-to-date “unspent” amount that we know we can spend on the more daily variable expenses (food, drinks, activities, gifts, shopping etc…).
Typically, if we go out for cocktails today, will we blow-up our budget and have to eat plain rice for the coming weeks 😅?

The v1.0 of the app is live since friday 01/11 and you can find it on our landing page:

We would love some feedback if you have any! 🙌

P.S.:
Special thanks to the community.glideapps.com (super helpful forum and people!).
Special thanks to makerpad.com for launching NoCodevember.com and giving us no excuse not to launch!

    Perhaps a video showing what it can do?
