Free travel expense trackers with currency conversion: what to check
For a short trip, a useful free-to-start tracker should let you log a few local-currency expenses, see home-currency totals, and test a budget before deciding whether unlimited trips are worth one lifetime unlock. G+Money Lite includes one trip and up to three expenses free, together with rates, a budget, category statistics, and a summary. Enter each purchase in the local currency and see it in your home currency using a live, saved, or manually set rate; saved rates keep the workflow usable offline.

- Local-currency entry with immediate home-currency totals.
- Budget, category statistics, and summary available before purchase.
