# Budget, bill and shared-cost tools for your own money

Mousepad can turn the sums you'd otherwise keep in a spreadsheet into a small app: an envelope budget, a list of subscriptions with their renewal dates, a split of who owes whom after a trip, a notebook of money lent to friends. Each one works from the amounts you enter, and you can ask Mousepad to change its categories, currency or layout.

## Questions

**Can I use a currency other than dollars?**

Renewal calendar already takes a currency for each subscription and works out monthly costs separately for each currency. For the other templates, ask Mousepad in the chat to show your currency.

**How does the trip split work out who owes whom?**

Fair share takes each expense, who paid it and who it was for, then works out everyone's balance and suggests repayments.

**Is the home payment sketch a loan quote?**

No. It's an illustration: it works out a fixed-rate principal-and-interest payment and an amortization table from the principal, rate and term you enter.

**Does the budget connect to my bank account?**

No. Give every dollar a job is a budget you keep by hand: split your income across categories, record what you spend, and it shows what's left in each category and what you haven't assigned yet.
