Why I built this

I wanted to start off with Building an iOS app for this, but sadly it was not approved for the AppStore due to the nature of the app being in financial information services.

See some of my marketing screenshots below:

Web App Version

In the end I decided that too much effort had gone into making this app that I "Remade" the app into a webapp, and now it's available at sarsmaat.co.za

The only feature left out is the document storing and profile feature, because I didn't want to have to create user profiles as that's a whole other aspect to a Web App.

And maybe overtime I'll add those features in.

The below section is purely just "marketing" content, but thought it would be interesting to keep in anyways.
