What apps do you use to manage your personal finances and be a savvier shopper on your smartphone?

Do you use USAA or Chase’s to deposit checks by taking a picture of them? Do you use Mint to scope out your current balances and get alerts about spending? Do you use Bejewelled as a form of escapism to forget that you have no money? What’s your favorite “undiscovered” app? Is there a common app that you use in a different way than most people do?

Post your faves in the comments and maybe we’ll check some of them out and share them with the group.
