## What is birdseye?

birdseye is a private, all-in-one expense tracker and subscription manager — track spending, bills, subscriptions, and free trials, scan receipts, split costs with friends, and budget across 25+ currencies. No account. No cloud. No tracking. Your money stays on your phone.

TRACK SUBSCRIPTIONS & FREE TRIALS
Finally see every recurring charge in one place. Add any subscription — streaming, gym, iCloud, software — with the company and plan name, and birdseye bills it into your daily expenses and monthly totals automatically. Put a subscription on hold, cancel it, or log a one-off extra cost or an upgrade for a single month. Starting a free trial? Get a reminder to cancel before it converts, and if you forget, birdseye logs the charge for you — then lets you remove it, record the cancellation date, and attach a photo of your confirmation.

TRACK EVERY EXPENSE, EVERY CURRENCY
Log expenses in 25+ currencies with automatic, real-time conversion to your base currency. Splitting dinner in Tokyo or grabbing a taxi in London — it all lands in one budget. Works offline with cached rates. No Wi-Fi required.

MANAGE HOUSEHOLD BILLS & SPENDING
Track monthly bills, groceries, utilities, subscriptions, and everyday spending together. A calendar view shows exactly where your money goes each day. Set recurring bills with due dates and mark them paid, so nothing slips through.

SCAN RECEIPTS INSTANTLY
Photograph any receipt and birdseye reads it — merchant, items, quantities, and totals — using on-device OCR. Supports English, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, German, French, and Thai. Pro adds AI-powered parsing with Apple Intelligence.

SPLIT GROUP EXPENSES FAIRLY
Traveling with friends? Split expenses equally, by custom amounts, or by individual receipt items. Splits include you automatically, with balances and payment status so settling up is simple, not awkward.

PLAN YOUR NEXT TRIP
birdseye learns from past trips to predict future costs. Set a budget, add city stops with dates, and preview estimated daily spending before you leave — in the currency that matters to you.

KEEP A TRAVEL DIARY
Capture moments alongside your finances with journal entries, photos, mood emoji, and automatic day numbering. Your memories and your money in one place.

SEE THE BIG PICTURE
The dashboard adapts to what matters now — switch between Trip, Household, and All views for spending, category breakdowns, budget progress, and recent transactions. Dive into any trip for analytics by city, category, or group member.

100% PRIVATE — YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
Everything is stored locally on your device. No account, no cloud sync, no analytics, no third-party SDKs. Your finances and photos never leave your phone. Period.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.7.0 — 2026-05-31

Subscriptions are here.
Track every recurring charge in one place — and watch it flow into your daily and monthly spending automatically.

• New Subscriptions screen: log any subscription with the company and an optional plan name
• Put a subscription on hold, cancel it, or add a one-off extra cost or upgrade for a specific month
• Free trials: get a reminder to cancel before you're charged, and birdseye logs the expense automatically if the trial converts
• Cancelled something? Mark it, remove any charge that slipped through, record the date, and attach a photo of your cancellation confirmation
• Delete a subscription while keeping (or removing) the expenses it created

Also in this update:
• Adding a household expense now defaults to the day you've selected on the calendar
• Refreshed dashboard stat chips and a clearer, labeled Subscriptions button
• Polish and small fixes

As always — 100% on-device. No account, no cloud, no tracking.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-05-14

Version 1.1.0

Three big additions, same on-device privacy promise. No bank login. No accounts. No data leaves your phone.

Smart Rules & Tags
Auto-categorise expenses with rules you can see, edit, and reorder. Set "merchant contains Spotify → Subscriptions" once and every future Spotify charge categorises itself. Tag expenses however you want — work, kids, reimbursable — and filter by them later. Find them under Settings → Categorisation Rules.

Subscription Tracker
Birdseye now spots recurring charges in expenses you've already logged — Netflix, the gym, that newsletter you forgot about. See your real monthly subscription cost at a glance, with built-in cancellation guides for 22 popular services including Netflix, Spotify, Adobe, gym chains, news, and more. No bank link required. Tap the recurring-charges icon at the top of the Household tab.

Your Year in Spending
A new six-card recap of your year: total spent, top categories, top merchants, biggest day, currencies used, cities visited. Pro members get an AI-written summary generated by Apple Intelligence directly on your iPhone — never sent to a server. Share to Instagram Story or iMessage in one tap. Opens from the new banner on the Dashboard.

Other improvements
- Tag picker on the Add Expense screen
- Bulk-apply rules to your expense history
- Curated cancellation guides for 22 popular subscriptions
- Improved Settings layout with a new Automation section

Birdseye still runs entirely on your device. No accounts, no servers, no bank credentials, no third-party trackers. Your money stays your business.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-04-02

No release notes.
