Loving this. A feature I would love is sharing categories for expenses, so I could group them to credit cards or expenses I share with roomates.
Jeffrey de Groot
@bolivar Thanks Bolivar! Yeah, this is also something that's on our list :)

I just started using Truebill yesterday because it syncs with my bank account (in Canada! a rarity) and have been super impressed. I do like the mobile UI of Billy though, and the fact that it shows you how many days until your next bill.
Jeffrey de Groot
@tombielecki Hey Tom! Yeah, we like Truebill ourselves as well, they offer some nice features that make discovering subscriptions really easy. I think that Billy is like the 'young and keen brother' that focusses on simplicity and 'doing one thing right' (if that makes sense to you haha). We'l definitely want to make Billy smart and integrate with other services as well, so please keep an eye us! :)

The simple design here is excellent, kudos to your designer ๐Ÿ‘ I like the freemium model too. Just to point out there's a typo; 'EA Acces' (sorry I'm a bit ocd with spelling!)
Jeffrey de Groot
@marsh931 Thanks Alex! We really aimed to make Billy is simple and clear as possible. We think there's definitely room for an app that has been designed with usability and simplicity in mind. Haha, whoops, that one slipped through, will fix it!

I love it! And I like your approach. TBH, I am not very comfortable with the idea of scanning my CC for subscriptions. Also, I loved the UI. :) A simple feature request - How about I send my subscription mail to your custom email and then it auto detects and adds it to my list? Somewhat similar to sending mails to your Evernote notebook through custom Evernote email. This way I don't have to give my CC and the job can still be done efficiently.

I've been waiting for Billy to launch! In fact I was on the sign up page just yesterday. @jeffreydgroot did you send a email out letting people know they can download it ? Congrats by the way. Love the design.
Jeffrey de Groot
@gabriel__lewis Hey Gabriel, thank you for your kind words! Oh, that's strange, we've sent out a newsletter this morning so you should have gotten a mail... If you still want to view the newsletter you can find it here haha: http://www.billyapp.co/newsletter/

Downloaded it and I like it. This is typically the kind of app people would pay for, right? Is there a reason why you kept it free of charge?
Jeffrey de Groot
@ldesserrey Hey Laurent! Well, we actually think it's the opposite. Especially with a dead simple app like Billy, we feel it makes more sense to use the freemium model and to get as many users as possible. Users are able to add up to 4 subscriptions by default and when they like it (and have more than 4 subscriptions) they can unlock it for just .99. But as you might know, doing pricing right is really, really though haha
๐”aurent ๐”‡el โ„œey
@jeffreydgroot Sure, it actually makes much more sense to make them pay after they're hooked. Anyway, simple products like this are the best. Keep up the good work ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿผ

Hey Jeffrey your product is amazing it's exactly what I was looking for! I started putting my subscriptions on the app, but some are in euro, some in dollars, some in gbp. Is there a way to choose the currency for each subscription?
Jeffrey de Groot
@david770 Hey David, thanks for your kind words! Supporting multiple currencies is definitely something thats's on our list (I really need that feature too). We're currently investigating the best solution for this, as it's quite a though 'feature' haha!
David Bellaiche
@jeffreydgroot indeed because you don't know which FX to choose when you sum up everything. I would suggest the FX of the day, you don't need to get the historical FX
Jeffrey de Groot
@david770 Yeah exactly! This is the main reason why we're currently not supporting it, but we'll be sure to make this feature as easy and clear as possible :)
Vikash Koushik
This app is freaking awesome, @jeffreydgroot! Just a few suggestions. I'd love to 1. chose from multiple currencies. I live in India. So I'd love to use INR. 2. be able to add my own icon when creating a custom subscriptions. I see that Ghost blog isn't available on your platform yet. So, if you allowed me to add my own icon or maybe I could just type the link of the website and you could automagically fetch their logo? You could also use this to keep track of what subscription services people are using and you can add that to your list. :) 3. I want to be able to choose on which date I'll be billed. I hope this helps. So far, I love this app. Congrats on the launch, guys! :-)
Marek Hrabe
Looks great, Jeffrey! I'm gonna give it a go. I have only approximate idea about my expenses, so I hope this will make my life a little bit more organized :)
Jeffrey de Groot
@marek Thanks for the kind words Marek!
