I have a Galaxy S and I use Calengoo for scheduling. It is very powerful when you master it and set it up right. I was using DroidWallet for keeping track of expenses and income, but now use Spendroid. I use Income Manager(Australian) for keeping track of tax. I use Mobilebiz Pro for quotes and invoicing. I am in the hunt for an all in one app but so far nothing to my liking yet.

Diary & a pen is all I need. :)

My mobile is the cheapest, most basic one I could find and its 3.5 years old. $55 bucks from Dick Smith.

& I only upgraded to that because they turned off the analogue system.

You could try this one for expenses and income

http://www.appbrain.com/app/hello-expense/com.helloexpense

For appointments try http://www.appbrain.com/app/business-calendar/mikado.bizcalpro which syncs with Google calendars.

Both are free

Came across this on a Facebook advertisement last night.

I don't think I'll be taking it up just yet at $400. What it is is a developer who creates an App directly for your business to be be used by customers with iPhones or Android phones.

Wondering what your thoughts are on the uptake in our market and whether it would suit what we do. One of the options appears to be for customers to book directly but without quoting or if you have a full schedule this wouldn't work too well.

Just found an app for Android called Mobile Page Manager which lets you directly access any PAGES you manage. You still log into FB as normal to use your own personal page but this is a stand-alone app that lets you directly update your business page including being able to upload photos on a job. Fairly basic but does what it needs to.

Im using Expense manager for accounts and Invoice2go for invoices.
Everything can be uploaded to my computer via dropbox. All for free except Invoice2go. which was $12.

Everybody is entitled to MY opinion. :)

For invoicing I have just started using invoice2go, like it a lot so far once set up a few taps on your phone and the invoice is done and emailed.

Will be interested to see how it goes long term.

A pretty cool feature of Invoice2go for tracking expenses is receipts2go, you take a photo of your receipt with your phone and add the details for the expense, you can then run a expense report for the month and all the details are there plus a photo of the receipt.

Gday, my phone has stuffed up....so about time I got me one of those "smartphones"....

Can you upload your expenses receipts to MobileBiz Pro? This one sounds pretty good, but couldnt find this feature in the description of it??
Otherwise the "Hello expense" link Mrs HMS supplied looks good.


Im looking for something to:
schedule/remind me of my daily appointments.
Send(email &/or sms) invoices(& quotes) to customers while at the job & can send a "paid receipt" email too would be nice.
Track expenses.

Not interested in Invoice2go as I read they are now asking for annual payments, would rather free or one-off payment solutions!

Any suggestion of what is available that might suit now?

cheers

Here is a good app for mixing 2 stroke(Android App). I use it for the boat as its 75:1 and always putting different amounts of fuel in it.

Best thing I was ever taught was the adage double it and add a zero. That is for 50.1 mix. You take your litres lets say 10 the you double it gives you 20 then add a zero gives you 200. So you add 200ml of oil to 10 litres of fuel. For 25.1 you double the final amount so you need 400ml of oil for 10 lts of fuel. Easy as.

For 75.1 its a bit more tricky. You take off half the 50.1 value but you have to add 33mls per each 10 ltrs used. So for 10 ltrs of fuel at 75.1 it would be 133 mls of oil. The extra oil goes up with each 10 ltrs of fuel ie. 20 ltrs of fuel is 266ml of oil and so on. But I never mix 75.1 so dont worry about it
