App: TaxCaster Mobile
Need a little motivation to get your taxes done? This app will quickly estimate whether you're owed a refund this year and how fat the check might be.
Just enter some basic information, including your income and deductions, and the app will calculate your refund -- or the taxes you might owe.
You can even plug in different scenarios, like accepting a new job or buying a house, to see how it would change your refund amount or tax liability in the upcoming tax year.
The TurboTax app is free to use and can be downloaded on iPhones and Androids.
