After some brainstorming sessions, I made a list of data relevant to this project's goals–to help users keep track of their spending and better plan the trip's budget.
After gathering and deciding what type of data would be helpful for the user, I focused on finding the best way to display them to users, so they can act accordingly after viewing.
Here is the 2nd iterations after I got the feedbacks.
For the mobile version, I updated the dashboard page corresponding to the changes of the desktop version.
Another key feature of this app is adding expenses, so for both versions I decided to provide quick access to that page from the main page.
