Perfect app

What a perfect app no bull-shat only what's needed and also you can add area where users can request some feature but they need to pay for it which would be useful for creator and user both

Simple and easy, but..

This is actually very good. However, why don’t you add a feature to record the income and income streams, so that the monthly budgeting, P&L is fully calculated within the app, and we don’t have to find another app to download for this specific calculation

Thanks for the fix

Since Friday the app was no longer working. All past expenses were no longer showing up, and an attempt to add a new expense was throwing 500 server error. Thanks for the fix as the app has been really helpful since I have started tracking my expenses. Feeling relieved :)

Thank you so much, Debasmita! We're sorry for the inconvenience caused by the server disruption. We've since upgraded our infrastructure to prevent this from happening again. So glad to hear you're back to tracking.

Entire transaction history deleted

I’ve been using this app for months, but today my entire transaction history was wiped clean. All the categories I manually added are missing as well. The app is also showing a “Server Error 500” message.

I’m done with this app. I’ll never use an expense tracker that requires an internet connection just to add transactions. I don’t understand how all my data could disappear without warning.

We're truly sorry for the experience. We want to assure you, your transaction history and categories have NOT been deleted. On Sep 20, our servers experienced a temporary outage during an infrastructure upgrade, which caused the "Server Error 500" you saw. This made it look like your data was gone, but it was safely stored the entire time. The issue has been fully fixed. Please open the app again, everything should be restored. We really value that you've been using the app for months, and we hope you'll give it another try. Thank you for your patience. We'd really appreciate it if you could update your rating , as a team, we value every piece of feedback and take it seriously!

Do not use it

One day you will wake up to some error like cannot connect to server and another day all your data will be lost, signing in on apple id to restore or re download the app won’t work. I tracked my expenses for 15days straight and was loving the app then everything was gone. This can happen to you aswell so BEWARE!!

We're sorry for the experience, and we completely understand your concern. Your 15 days of tracked expenses are NOT gone, they're safely stored on our servers. What happened on Sep 20 was a temporary server outage during an infrastructure upgrade that prevented the app from connecting to our database. It's been fully resolved now. Please open the app, all your data should be right there. We've upgraded our servers and added real-time monitoring to make sure this doesn't happen again. We hope you'll give it another chance!

Server error - unable yo connect to Apple ID and lost my data

Unfortunately I am unable to connect to my Apple account and all my data entries over the last 4-5 months are lost.
Utterly pathetic and frustrating

We sincerely apologize, Vivek. Your 4-5 months of data has NOT been lost, it is safely stored on our servers. The server error and Apple ID connection issue were caused by a temporary outage on Sep 18-20 during an infrastructure upgrade. This has been completely resolved. Please open the app now, all your entries should be back. Apple ID linking should also work now. We'd really appreciate it if you could update your rating, as a team, we value every piece of feedback and take it seriously!

Please open the app now, everything should be right where you left it. If anything still looks off, please reach out and we'll help right away!

Useless and Unreliable -data suddenly disappeared

I'd been using this app to carefully record my expenses, and suddenly all of my saved expenditure data disappeared. This is extremely frustrating!!!. An app that suddenly lose user's expenditure data without warning isn't reliable for maintaining important records. I hope the developers address this issue and provide a proper way to recover lost data.

Could you fix bugs ?

I was using it for the last 4 months. It’s too smooth until last night. Please fix the bug soon.

All data disappeared

I was using the app to track my expenses for long time when suddenly today morning all my expenses disappeared from the app and it started showing no expenses for this month. Lost out on the whole point of me using the app. Please fix this!

Wish it didn’t log to a server

Firstly, great job with the UI and UX. Super simple, easy to use, feels apple native.

I really wish it did 2 things -
1. Didn’t log data to a server. I understand it uses a random device ID but I would really prefer complete local storage, nothing leaving my device. Maybe you could offer this as an option?
2. Income tracking is missing. I’m sure it’s on the roadmap.

Great app overall, but I’ll likely not be using it unless I get the option for local storage only without any servers or sync involved.

Excellent app! Feature requests

Love the simplicity! Three feature requests:

1. SUB-CATEGORIES - Allow nested categories (e.g., Food → Groceries, Restaurants)
2. INCOME TRACKING - Add option to log income alongside expenses
3. IMPORT/EXPORT - Support CSV/Excel for backup and data analysis
4. SHORTCUTS INTEGRATION - Custom categories don't show in iOS Shortcuts. When I trigger an expense log from Shortcuts, only built-in categories appear. Please add URL scheme support or sync custom categories with Shortcuts for true automation.
5. RECURRING EXPENSES - Option to set up monthly recurring bills/subscriptions

These would make it perfect for power users managing finances with automation. Keep up the great work!🫡

Absolutely love the app

I do have one question. Why does the app require internet connection to work?

Perfect to use

Everything is perfect. Only two things: search option to search for a particular expense

And in summary if we click on category if we can just see all expenses under that particular catergory, it would be great

Thanks for making such a simple app

Clean and clutter free

If you add widgets and shortcuts to quickly add the amount and category without opening the app then it’s a boom, rest the app is good, simple design and add free, thanks to developer.

Simple design and data protection

Hi! I just installed the app and really love the simple design. I also like that it syncs with Apple ID, which is great for data protection.

However, I noticed that I can only add expenses and not income. Without tracking income, it’s difficult to manage my finances.

Are you planning to add an income feature in a future update? I would really like to use this app if that feature is available.

Thank you.

Thank you for the kind words! Great news!, income tracking is actively being built and we plan to ship it within the next few weeks. You'll be able to manage both sides of your finances in one place. Stay tuned!

Payment Methods and Balances

Any plans to add payment methods and balances? This feature will make lives more easy to track balance as well

Thanks for the suggestion! Payment methods and balance tracking are on our roadmap. Once income tracking ships (coming very soon), balances will follow naturally as part of the same experience. Appreciate your patience!

Loved the simplicity

I really like the app, as it has no unnecessary features. A habit tracker similar to this would be excellent. The current options available on the app store are too complicated, and there is a clear need for a simple one like this expense tracker.

Amazing app. But few updates needed.

The minimalistic design is something that should be appreciated. But one feature that I feel is missing is income tracking. That can be added to see where my finances are gained and give a entire picture of
