The app

Five screens. Nothing you have to learn.

A dashboard that answers the only question that matters, a ledger you can search, budgets that warn you before you cross them, and reports you can hand to someone else.

Dashboard

Your month, in one card

Total balance across your accounts — credit cards excluded, so the number is money you actually have. Income, expense and monthly savings sit underneath it.

  • Financial health card with your savings rate
  • Six-month income against expenses
  • Quick actions for expense, income and import
Transactions

A ledger you can actually search

Everything grouped by date, filtered by type or category, searchable by merchant. Adding an entry takes a custom keypad, a quick amount and one tap.

  • Category suggested from keyword rules you can edit
  • Merchant autocomplete that remembers what you chose
  • Local merchants recognised out of the box
Budgets

A limit per category, and a warning

Set a monthly ceiling on groceries, fuel, transport — whatever you overspend on. Progress fills as you go, and you pick the point where it tells you.

  • Alert threshold anywhere from 50% to 100%
  • A notification when a category crosses it
  • Remaining amount, not just a percentage
Reports

Five periods, two export formats

Summary cards, a six-month trend, budget performance and a breakdown of where income came from and where it went. Take it out as CSV or PDF.

  • This month, last month, quarter, year, all time
  • Exports written wherever you choose to save them
  • Figures shown in your selected currency

Statement import

Bring the statement. Keep the login.

No open-banking connection, no SMS permission, no credentials. You hand the app the file your bank already gives you, and it reads it on the phone — including scans, through on-device text recognition.

A file is remembered after it is imported, so the same statement cannot be added twice. Rows matching what you already have are flagged before anything is written.

Reports

Numbers that hold up when you look twice

Six months of income against expenses, budget performance per category, and a breakdown of both sides of the ledger. Every figure converted to the currency you picked, and exportable as CSV or PDF.

The app works with the internet switched off

Your ledger is a database file on your phone. Nothing has to leave it for the app to do its job — no account, no upload, no third party reading your statement.

Stored locally, first

Transactions, budgets and rules live in a database on the device. Offline is the normal mode, not a fallback.

No account required

Skip sign-up at setup and use everything local. Create an account only if you want your data on a second device.

No bank credentials

The app never asks for internet-banking logins or reads your messages. It reads a file you chose to hand it.

PIN and biometric lock

A PIN stored as a slow one-way hash, fingerprint or face unlock, and a lockout that lengthens after repeated failures.

Sync only if you ask

Signed-in sync is scoped to your own user, and switching accounts clears the previous one's data from the device.

Payments handled by Google Play

Subscriptions go through Play billing. No card details are entered into or stored by the app.

Languages
