WanderDollar, formerly WanderWallet: a free offline travel budget, journal and map app for Android

One announcement, two parts. WanderWallet is now WanderDollar, and the app has grown from a travel budget tracker into the place where a whole trip lives: the budget while you travel, and the journal, the map and the recap when you get home. It is still free, still works offline and still needs no account.

Why the new name

Search for “WanderWallet” on Google Play and you will find several unrelated apps with the same or a very similar name, including a payments app and a crypto wallet. Ours is a travel budget and journal, and people were landing on the wrong one. A name of its own fixes that. Nothing else about the app changed because of it.

What stays the same

  • It is the same app, so the update arrives on Google Play like any other. There is nothing to reinstall.
  • Your trips, expenses, journal entries, photos and settings are all still there.
  • Backups made before the change restore as normal.
  • Still free, still offline, no account and no login.

What is new

  • Journal: a line written for you each day from your stops and spending, plus a mood, a note and photos.
  • Trip recap: swipeable picture cards of your trip, in its own colours, ready to share.
  • Share day: one day of your trip as a post or a story, with a caption and the photos you pick, for Facebook, Instagram or anywhere else.
  • Map: tick the countries you have visited, keep a wish list, add trips from before you had the app, and see your continents, days away and daily cost by country.
  • Travel book: your days, notes and photos as a PDF or a web page.
  • Explore: ideas for your next trip from 335 cities, with the budget already filled in when you plan it.

Frequently asked questions

Is WanderDollar the same app as WanderWallet?

Yes. Only the name has changed. It is the same app from the same developer, and it updates in place.

Will I lose my trips or my journal?

No. Everything stays on your phone exactly where it was, and the update does not touch it.

Is it still free?

Yes. It is free to download and supported by ads. Sharing a recap, a day or a map unlocks with a short ad.

Does it still work offline?

Yes. The only network request is a once-a-day exchange-rate update, and the app works without it.

Why does the web address still say wanderwallet?

The old links keep working, so we kept them. The app page and the Google Play link are the same as before.

How to Budget for a Trip: A Simple, Step-by-Step Guide

Everyone means to travel on a budget. Then the flights cost more than you planned, three “small” dinners quietly blow a day’s spending, the currency changes at the border, and by the middle of the trip you genuinely have no idea whether you’re doing fine or heading for an overdraft. A travel budget isn’t about being tight — it’s about spending freely because you actually know where you stand. Here’s how to build one that survives contact with a real trip. In a hurry? Get a ballpark in ten seconds with our free travel budget calculator — pick a destination and a travel style and it estimates the total, with a full daily breakdown. Then read on for how to turn that number into a plan you’ll actually stick to. Step 1: Price the big rocks first Three or four costs make up the bulk of almost any trip: getting there (flights, trains), a bed each night (hotels, hostels, rentals), getting around (transfers, car hire, int...

Introducing Horizon Software

-
Horizon Software is a small, independent studio in New Zealand. We make little Android apps — the kind that do one thing, do it well, and then get out of your way. This is the first post on our new home, so it feels right to start with what we’re about. Small on purpose There’s a certain kind of app we love: the one that opens fast, shows you exactly what you came for, and doesn’t try to become your whole day. A picture from space. A moment from history. A quick quiz on the bus. Our apps are deliberately small — each one built around a single, clear idea. We’d rather make a handful of things that are genuinely good at one job than one thing that’s mediocre at everything. Free — and staying that way Every app we publish is free to download and free to use — no paywalls, no subscriptions, no features held hostage behind your credit card. A good little app should just work, for everyone. To keep it free, our apps car...

Street Cricket: A Road Trip Game for the Whole Car

“Are we there yet?” has finally met its match. Street Cricket is a free Android game that turns any car journey into a game of cricket — no pitch, no bat, no gear, just your phone and the open road. Cricket for the car — no pitch required All the fun of a backyard game, none of the setup. Street Cricket takes the spirit of street and beach cricket and packs it into your phone, so a long drive or a boring wait suddenly has a game hiding inside it. Simple rules, genuinely fun The rules are quick to pick up and easy to teach, so nobody’s left reading an instruction manual while the fun happens without them. Within a minute everyone’s playing — and, usually, arguing good-naturedly about the score. Made for road trips and waiting rooms Street Cricket is built for exactly those in-between moments: the motorway stretch, the airport gate, the doctor’s waiting room, the queue that will not move. Whenever you need to turn dead tim...
