LittleFin Software has released Chronicle 3.3 (http://www.littlefin.com/chronicle.html), an update to their home finance and bill paying application for Mac OS X. You can now generate reports for the current or past year for any bill — or you can generate a report of all payments, including totals.
In version 3.3, reports can be easily printed or saved to PDF. Loading bills is now a bit faster, and loading the Overview should be significantly faster. iCal operations continue in the background, so saving bills and logging payments is now faster as well.
Chronicle provides a graphical means to enter and track finances. Features include: automatic bill paying reminder; long-term debt tracking; database of payments and receipts; graphs and reports which analyze trends and averages; and a sortable list of upcoming bills which can be paid on-line from within the app.
In addition, Chronicle analyzes payments by month and year and displays the information graphically. It also averages payments so it is easier to budget for bills that fluctuate, like utilities or credit cards. Finally, the sortable overview screen displays at a glance when each bill is due. Colorful icons indicate when a bill is overdue, due soon, or due in the future. With a couple clicks, the user can log payments or make payments online.
Reminders are automatically added to iCal, so they appear on the user’s iPhone automatically when synced. With MobileMe, bill reminders are pushed to the user’s iPhone, or iPod touch instantly.
Chronicle requires Mac OS X 10.3 or higher. It costs US$20.95, though version 3.3 is a free update for registered users of version 3.x.
