Keeping a virtual account is great way to forego cumbersome cash transfers or handing over physical money. Instead, you keep track how much money you have advanced for someone else until, finally, you settle the account after many transactions.
This app provides for such virtual account. It also adds some further funtions for convenience.

40x25
matrix of the Standard Character Mode. - Dark green has been added as one further color (the 17th) for consistent coloring within the

- No permissions needed: As seldom as this might be in 2024, the app only needs the
SharedPreferences
