Split, Spend, and Get Stuff Done: Top Finance-Plus-Task Apps for Couples

Joint bank accounts aren't the only way to feel financially aligned. In 2025, a new wave of apps merges bill splitting with shared to-do lists so you can coordinate everything from rent to recycling day.

1. Tandem —Finance & Task Powerhouse

• Split expenses in one swipe, set recurring bills (e.g., rent).

• Coordinate your day-to-day with a two-person to-do list—unique in the finance-app space.
• Home-buying calculators for couples eyeing their first mortgage.

Price: Free on iOS; Android coming soon.

2. Honeydue —Budget Transparency

Transparent transaction feeds and push alerts keep both partners looped-in. Limited task tools—tack on DuoDo or Flamme if you need deep to-do features.

3. DuoDo + Honeydue Integration

Use Honeydue for dollars, DuoDo for duties. Thanks to Honeydue's webhook, completed DuoDo chores can auto-log the associated cost into Honeydue—yes, your Costco run finally counts!

4. Merge

Budget tracking meets chore lists; UI is clean but still iOS-only.
