What finance apps do you have on your home screen?

I have recently been consolidating my pensions (and feeling very smug about it), and have got down to two: Scottish Widows and Mylo by Aegon (the Mylo app is better). They are in a neat ‘Money’ folder along with banking apps and the rest.
None on the home screen. Elsewhere on the phone I’ve got Monzo, Barclays, and American Express. And Splitwise Inc., if that counts, though that app drives me crazy.
Monzo, Barclays, and of course Sendwave (International Remittance) and WorldRemit.
Moniepoint MFB, Yahoo Finance, Bamboo, and my banking apps. I like seeing how different products solve similar problems.
Controversially not on my home screen… but LHV Bank of course! Nice and tidy in a Money folder.
Literally just my HSBC banking apps. Given all the fintech brands I produce content for I often feel like such a boomer when it comes to managing my own finances. Perhaps I need to watch a few of my own videos and take notes...
I’m a fintech geek - I see a new one, I download it. They range from banking, to investments, to cashback, to money management.
Every fintech I’ve ever worked for. Which is essentially a record of all my past lives. But the ones I actually use are Wealthsimple, Revolut and Monzo. And my favourite: Claude. I feed it my transaction data and financial goals, and it’s become genuinely useful for thinking through big purchases or decisions about moving money including pros, cons, context. It’s like having one financial advisor sitting across multiple apps.
Monzo, Wise, Female Invest, Splitwise Inc., and NatWest.
Since I moved to Spain I have both Argentinian and Spanish ones depending on what I’m using: crypto wallets such as Buenbit and Lemon, Mercado Libre for payments in Argentina, Santander and Trade Republic for my day-to-day here in Spain.
ING, NAO, Raisin, Consorsbank for saving and investing. Vivid and Lexware for business. Plus some crypto relics: Binance, Coinbase, and CoinTracking.
Lloyds Bank (obviously the only one you need!), plus four other banks to keep an eye on the industry. I’ve also got a couple of price comparison (aggregator) apps - I’m slightly obsessed with doing the occasional soft search to see what I’m eligible for.
Starling, Wise, ANNA Money, Nationwide Building Society, Vanguard, Trading 212, Mercury - my whole financial life is in these companies!
Monzo (obvs), Sprive helps overpay on the mortgage, Santander UK for the mortgage.
Intuit QuickBooks, Lightyear, PensionBee UK, Monzo, Yonder, J.P. Morgan Investing, NatWest... Tell me you work in fintech without telling me you work in fintech.
None. I have yet to find a finance app I would proactively want to visit. It is a category failure and I want to fix that. But there is no app out there which is making people feel good about themselves or that is “doing human” well.
Listing them makes me realise I have quite a few! Monzo, American Express, and HSBC for everyday; Wise for international transfers; Hargreaves Lansdown for investments; and Coinbase for crypto.
Quite a few. HSBC for day-to-day, Hargreaves Lansdown for my ISA and my daughter’s JISA, Monzo for our joint account, and Coinbase for a small crypto dabble (my least favourite UX by far). Also American Express, Revolut and Tesco Bank.
Xero and Starling for business, Revolut for travel, and GoHenry to teach my kids about money.
InvestEngine (of course), then every investment app under the sun to see what our peers are up to. Plus a few South African ones from my time there.
AMP Bank GO of course for banking, My AMP for my super, Sharesies for investing. Then a bunch of US ones from my recent stint over there, including Venmo and Acorns.
My bank Starling - that’s it. Credit card apps and investment apps buried on later screens. I prefer to play with money I actually have!
Belong, Moneybox, Monzo, Starling, NatWest, Barclaycard, Emma - we are hiring! and most importantly, Yonder, obviously (can we do self-noms?). My 2026 mission is to sort my shit out, financially and start investing, finally.
I love Monzo, enjoy Revolut, tolerate PayPal and Wise, and bet big on PensionBee UK.
All the usual suspects, really. I bank with Monzo, credit with American Express, and of course I’ve got the PayPal app (surprise, surprise!). Then there’s the business arsenal: Xero for accounting, Stripe for payments, and Wise for international transactions. Glamorous, I know.
Monzo for spending, Tandem Bank for saving, and Aila Money for trying to build better financial habits.
Monzo for my day-to-day, LemFi for sending money home, Lloyds Bank, Klarna for one-time annual splurging, Barclaycard for credit.
Currently and in no particular order: Prosper, Moneybox, Arta Finance, Spring Savings, first direct, Starling, Monzo, Santander, Halifax, Y TREE, Aila Money, Belong, InvestEngine, HyperJar, Sidekick, Raisin, GoHenry, Chip – your wealth app, Revolut, AJ Bell, Hargreaves Lansdown.
Chase for everyday banking. Openbank by Santander for the long-term. Coinbase and Binance to dabble in the future. Robinhood for spur-of-the-moment investing.
N26 for daily spending, Trade Republic for investing, Revolut for travel, and PayPal when I need to quickly pay back the friend who grabbed the bill.
Wealthify, Aviva, Chip – your wealth app, Sidekick, first direct, Monzo.
Monzo, NatWest, American Express, ClearScore, Xe.com, Currensea, and Splitwise Inc.. The last two are essential for international travel and splitting bills without awkward conversations.
Two buckets. Ones I legitimately use as a customer, and ones I have just to play with and spy on 🤫. Outside of Up, which obviously rocks the most, my go to is pearler for shares. I used to use Splitwise Inc. a lot too — until Up recently launched our new Groups feature 😎.
As a working mom in Asia it’s mostly local payment apps that make my life efficient and earn me rewards e.g. GrabPay. Grab is a local ride hailing app and its wallet is accepted everywhere, including local hawkers. Also Seedly to make sure my kids aren’t draining my savings!
OPay for daily transactions, Guaranty Trust and Access Bank Plc for traditional banking, and Asset & Resource Management Holding Company (ARM HoldCo). - my preferred investment app.
Monzo for banking, Yonder for rewards, InvestEngine for investing.
Wise, HSBC, Monzo, PayPal, Halifax, Starling, Aviva. Combination of stuff I use and stuff I play around with for work.
Wise for sending money home, all the apps for all my credit cards 😄.
Blockchain.com, naturally, for the crypto. TradingView for the financial info. Lightyear for the investing. Revolut for the banking.
Yonder (obviously, my go-to for everything), Monzo for household diplomacy, Trading 212 to keep one eye on my early-retirement fund, and HSBC lingering on as the old guard.
Plenty. Daily drivers are Monzo, Revolut, Moneybox, and yes, still Nationwide Building Society. Off topic: I’ve got a soft spot for Yahoo Finance UK too.
Monzo, Moneybox, Freetrade, and of course PensionBee UK.
Chase and RBC (personal banking), Investment Calculator, Venmo (P2P), The Wall Street Journal (news), Square (POS), Coinbase (crypto), Stocks (iOS), Apple Wallet (digital wallet).
Monzo for saving pots, Revolut for business, Penfold for my pension, and Moneybox for investments.
Starling, Capital on Tap, American Express, HSBC, interactive investor, Xero, Wise, IG, Monzo, and Curve.
I have a few! Monzo, Chip – your wealth app, Airtime...
Starling (current account), Credit Karma (always checking my credit score), PensionBee UK (good to keep on top of my pension), Lloyds Bank (credit card), Wise (work card), NatWest (mortgage), Taxfix UK (formerly TaxScouts) (obviously), Taxfix.
NatWest and PayPal (always being the customer), Lloyds Bank for banking, interactive investor (a brilliant open banking customer of ours), and the National Lottery (not technically a finance app, but girl math optimism in action).
HSBC, Revolut, and YuLife (yes, it counts - I’m earning rewards and saving for my pension!).
Too many. Plum, Monzo, Yonder, Finimize, Yahoo Stocks, Revolut, Coinbase, to name a few… With the recent market downturn I’m finding comfort in checking these apps a lot less frequently (insert crying face emoji).
Financielle. It’s genuinely the only way I can manage my money. Starling is my go-to banking app which hosts my personalised spaces.
I keep my home screen very minimal so right now it’s just Chip – your wealth app and then ChatGPT (which I do use for finance too).
Quite a few! Starling for my everyday banking, plus Monzo, Revolut, and Chase to keep an eye on the competition. PensionBee UK helps me keep my pensions in one place, and I use American Express for the Avios points.
Wise for transfers, Monument for savings and ISAs, Monzo for fun spending, and Trading 212 for stocks.
Monzo for everyday banking, Plum for saving and investing on autopilot, and Yonder for the points.
NatWest for day-to-day, Lightyear for investing, Yonder for credit card, and Wise for business.
Prosper for pretending I’m an investment guru, Wise for moving money without feeling robbed, and Crowdcube because I believe in ownership. And also because they pay me.
Lloyds Bank for everyday banking. AJ Bell for investing. American Express and Virgin Money for travel points. Chase when travelling.
I use Wise a lot as it’s my default card here in NY. I bank with Monzo, have an American Express card and use bunq for my Dutch account. And of course my PensionBee UK pension which I manage through our app.
It’s a long list! OakNorth, Monzo, Starling, Chase, Freetrade, American Express, John Lewis & Partners credit card, Royal London, Fidelity International, Nutmeg, Wise, NS&I, Splitwise Inc., and Coinbase.
Monzo, Starling, Marcus by Goldman Sachs, Zopa Bank, Chase, Chip – your wealth app, Wise, Tandem Bank, Atom bank, PayPal, Coinbase, Freetrade, and the NS&I Premium Bonds prize checker app. Yes, I know.
I actually have no finance apps apart from my Apple Wallet on my home screen. My HSBC app gets the most usage - I’m terrible at financial admin.
All my spending goes through Yonder, obviously. I love scrolling Venmo to guess which of my friends in the US are paying for drugs.
