New: GPWearHelper

GPWearHelper is a new helper application for advanced users only. This app listens for Google Pay activity on your Wear OS device and creates a pending transaction on your mobile phone that can be processed by JabpLite4. To install the GPWearHelper application requires familiarity with the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) and enabling developer options on your wearable. The GPWearHelper app is included in the main distribution zip for JabpLite4.

Updated: JabpLite 4.08

This update for our Android personal finance app improves the integration with Dropbox. Also some new code is included to allow for the future processing of Google Pay transactions which have been recorded on a Wear OS device (ie. a watch!). This functionality will be incorporated in a future release of JabpLite4.

Updated: Jabp 4.08

A minor update for our desktop personal finance program brings a new preference to control the number of columns in the Accounts View in both portrait and landscape modes: in other words, depending on the width and length of the window (which can be dragged by the user to change the size).
