Do you track your expenses monthly? Annually? Do you have an app or do you use an excel spreadsheet? Any suggested tools?

I use a spreadsheet and track monthly.

A spreadsheet, it compares against monthly trends, and splits the transactions by type. It also tracks shares, and debts.

plus I "compete" with 2 mates to see who spends the least month on month. They are super tight though, so it's hard for me. I did win June though, first win since March 2022
