## What is Bacon?

Bacon is a money tracker built around a calendar. Open it and see what every day cost, with income, expenses and what's left for the period across the top. Record the next purchase in about five seconds, then put it away.

You don't need to give every dollar a job. You need to know what your dollars are doing.

THE CALENDAR IS THE APP
• Every day shows what it cost
• Income, expenses and what's left for the period, always in view
• Weekly, biweekly or monthly periods, lined up with your payday
• Prefer a list? See the same period day by day

FAST TO RECORD
• Amount, category, done
• One category per transaction, plus any number of tags. A dinner on a trip stays Dining and still counts toward what the whole trip cost
• Merchants you've used before are suggested as you type
• Record expenses and income from the Shortcuts app

PLAN THE THINGS THAT MATTER
• Budgets on categories or tags, with optional rollover
• Recurring transactions such as your pay, rent and subscriptions appear on the calendar before they happen. Confirm or skip each one when it arrives
• Insights shows spending by category and by tag, with your budgets drawn in
• Bank accounts, savings, cash and credit cards, each with a running balance, and transfers between them
• Search across everything you've recorded

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Bacon never connects to your bank. You record what you spend, and that m notice it
• No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking
• Your data syncs through your own private iCloud across iPhone, iPad and Mac
• Backup, restore and CSV export are free, always

FREE, WITH ONE OPTIONAL UPGRADE
Recording is free: unlimited accounts and transactions, categories, tags, cuts, backup and export. The free version also includes 2 budgets, 3 recurring transactions and the last 3 months of Insights.

Bacon Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It unlocks unlimited budgets, unlimited recurring transactions, budgets on tags, and Insights history all the way back.
One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac.
