## What is Caffeinated Checkbook?

Caffeinated Checkbook is a digital checkbook register for people who want to track their money themselves. It doesn't connect to your bank. It doesn't sync your transactions automatically. It doesn't sell your data or show you ads. It's a notebook that does math.

Record payments, deposits, and transfers across as many accounts as you need: checking, savings, credit cards, cash, or investments. Every transaction gets a running balance, just like a paper checkbook register. When you're ready, reconcile against your bank statement to make sure everything matches.

No account required. No internet required. Your data lives on your device in an encrypted local database that you control. Caffeinated Checkbook works completely offline and always will.

FEATURES

Manage multiple accounts with full transaction registers and running balances. Enter transactions with payee, amount, category, memo, and check number. Smart auto-fill remembers your frequent payees. Split transactions across categories. Transfer between accounts with linked transaction pairs. Void, duplicate, and search transactions instantly.

Reconcile your accounts against bank statements with a guided workflow. Track cleared vs. uncleared balances. View reconciliation history.

Set up recurring transactions for bills and regular income. Choose manual confirmation or auto-posting. Never forget a payment.

Run reports: spending by category, payee summaries, cash flow, year-over-year comparisons, and tax-relevant expense reports with IRS schedule classifications. Export any report to CSV.

50+ built-in categories with tax-relevant flags for medical, charitable, mortgage interest, property tax, and more. Create your own categories and subcategories.

SYNC & SHARING

The app is free to use on a single device with no limitations. For those who want more:

An Individual subscription adds multi-device sync, keeping your data consistent across your phone, tablet, and desktop.

A Family subscription includes multi-device sync for up to five members, plus the ability to share specific accounts with other members of your household. Keep personal accounts private while sharing joint accounts, each person controls what they share.

A single Caffeinated Account unlocks sync across the entire Caffeinated Softworks suite. One account, one subscription, all of the apps.

WHAT THIS APP IS NOT

Caffeinated Checkbook does not connect to banks or financial institutions. It cannot move money, pay bills, or access your account credentials. It is a record-keeping tool, the digital equivalent of the paper register in your checkbook. You enter what you spent, and it keeps track.

No ads. No tracking. No data collection. Your finances are yours.

Part of the Caffeinated Softworks suite.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.6 — 2026-08-10

You can now choose which balance your accounts show. Pick the current balance, the cleared balance, or the balance as of today, which leaves out anything dated later such as scheduled bills. The total at the top names whichever one you picked, so you always know what you are looking at. The choice is in Settings.

When a transaction takes your running balance below zero, the whole row is now shaded and the balance turns red, so an overdrawn day is hard to scroll past without noticing. Credit card accounts are left alone, where a balance owed is the normal state.

Thanks to Vickie and everyone who sent along the feedback behind this update.

### 1.1.5 — 2026-08-03

Filters are now persistent. Set an account's register to show uncleared transactions only and it stays that way when you leave and come back, and after you reopen the app. Each account keeps its own filters.

Duplicating a transaction now opens a copy in the editor without saving it first. Nothing is added to your register until you tap Save, and the copy keeps the original's split lines and transfer details.

The transaction menu no longer runs off the bottom of the screen on shorter displays, and pressing and holding a transaction on iPad opens the menu next to the one you picked.

### 1.1.4 — 2026-07-16

This update makes recurring transactions more flexible: repeat every few weeks or months, or twice a month on the two days you choose, which is handy for paychecks. You can also pick your own accent color, hide the running balance for a cleaner register, turn on auto-decimal entry so typing 1234 becomes 12.34, and clear a transaction with a single, easier tap. Thanks for the feedback that keeps Checkbook improving.

### 1.1.3 — 2026-07-01

This update focuses on reliability:
• More reliable sync. Fixed an issue where restoring a backup could make your transactions disappear after syncing. Your restored data now stays put and syncs across your devices.
• Category names now show correctly, instead of occasionally appearing as a code.
• Fixed a crash that could happen when exporting or sharing.

Thanks for the feedback that keeps Checkbook improving.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-06-27

Brought back the sync status and controls that went missing after the recent iOS updates, located in the More tab.
