Short answer
On a Johor Bahru trip your money goes to food, petrol, services and retail, mostly in MYR, while you budget in SGD. G+Money Lite lets you log each expense in the local currency and see it converted to your home currency at a rate you set, organised by trip, so you always know the true SGD cost of the weekend. It works fully offline — handy at the causeway or anywhere signal is patchy — and exports a per-category CSV afterwards. It's pay-once with no account and no bank linking, so nothing connects to your finances.
Try G+Money Lite on a real example first, and check the current App Store listing for exact features and pricing before you decide.

Quick comparison
| Need | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Check whether useful features require a subscription, a one-time unlock, or neither. | The cheapest app on day one may not be cheapest after a year. |
| Privacy model | Prefer on-device work when the content is sensitive. | Private documents, resumes, study data, and family content deserve careful handling. |
| Export / lock-in | Confirm file formats, sharing, backup, and deletion controls. | A good app should help you finish the task, not trap your work. |

FAQ
Does it update the exchange rate automatically?
G+Money Lite uses a rate you set for the trip, so your totals are predictable and work offline; update the rate when it moves.
Do I have to link my bank?
No — G+Money Lite has no bank linking and no account; you enter expenses manually, so nothing touches your bank.
Can I see how much I spent in Singapore dollars?
Yes — every MYR expense shows its SGD equivalent, and you get a per-category and per-trip total.
