Expenditure
Expenditure is a simple app for tracking expenses in groups
Expenditure is a helpful companion for tracking and splitting bills, project or trip expenses among groups with extended support for multiple currencies. This comes in handy e.g. on a group-trip through different countries while at the same time keeping track of other bills at home.
Features:
- create multiple projects with different members
- add and edit expenses
- use multiple currencies with constant or date-specific exchange rates
- calculate total and individual spending overview
- generate settlement suggestion
- backup and restore project expenses
- share report
Permissions
Expenditure requires the following permissions:
- PublicDir, UserDirs, RemovableMedia: to save exported reports

Good catch, thanks for reporting! It's fixed in v2.0.1 which I just released. Number input was broken in all locales that use a dot as decimal point, regardless of the keyboard setting.

Great app!
Just today I found out about the Android app "Splid" and schwuppdiwupp, there´s an equivalent natively for Sailfish. Great!!!!
That´s worth some Euros! Keep up your great work with all the apps you provide for Sailfish!
