FlashBill: Expense Tracker

Sign in with your face, without typing a thing You can now create a passkey from your profile and sign in to FlashBill with the same thing that unlocks your phone: your face or your fingerprint. No email, no waiting for a code and no password to remember. The passkey is kept on your phone and in your keychain, never on our servers: what stays on our side is the public half, which is no use for signing in anywhere. You can have several —your phone, your tablet—, see in your profile when each one was last used and remove them whenever you like. It is one more door, not a replacement: signing in with your email, with Google or with Apple works exactly as before. Your month, in your inbox When the month closes you get an email with how it went: what came in, what went out, what you had left, whether you spent more or less than last month, and the three categories where most of it went, each with its icon and its color, just as you see them in the app. Your phone works those numbers out. That isn't a technical detail: your movements travel encrypted and not even we can read them, so the only device able to add up your month is yours. No copy of the email is kept either: it is deleted from our servers as soon as it is delivered. It arrives switched on and goes off with one tap, from Preferences or from the email itself. A month with nothing logged isn't sent: a summary of zeros is worse than silence. Your watch, tuned up The crown now responds when you turn it slowly: setting an amount only moved the figure if you spun it fast, and taking it easy just buzzed at every notch without changing the number. Slow turns now count too, one step at a time. And your watch shows the whole figure: an expense of 6.78 read as 7 on your wrist and as 6.78 on your phone, and two different numbers for the same expense make you doubt both. On the watch face complication it stays rounded, which is where it genuinely doesn't fit. What you see logged on the watch is from the current month, the same month the totals above it are talking about. Entries from last month used to slip in under a total that only counted this one. Your reminders now speak plainly "You have 0 day(s) to pay your card" was arithmetic, not a reminder: you had to translate that zero before realising the payment was due that same day. Now your financial reminders say it in words —"Your card payment is due today", "Your card closes tomorrow"— and only count days when there really are several. It applies to all four: your card's closing date, your card payment, repeating expenses and your loan payments. And it is now clear what happens when you choose not to be told in advance: that option was called "No" and said no reminder would be sent, when what it does is send it on the day. It is now called "On the day" and says exactly that. Swiping now looks like it feels When you swiped a card to edit, delete or hide it, the colour behind it was a square block stuck to the edge, and the icon sat so far in that you had to swipe half the card to know what would happen. Now the colour grows with your finger, carries the same rounded corners as the card and the icon shows from the first centimetre. It works the same in your history, your accounts, your categories and your loans.
