## What is HustleBooks?

HustleBooks is the per-hustle profitability tracker that answers one question: which of your side hustles are actually worth your time?

HOW IT WORKS

Track income, expenses, and hours for each side hustle separately. HustleBooks calculates your real effective hourly rate after all expenses, so you can make data-driven decisions about which hustles to scale, maintain, or drop.

FEATURES

- Per-Hustle Tracking: Create separate profiles for each side hustle (DoorDash, Etsy, tutoring, freelance work, etc.)
- Real Hourly Rate: See your actual earnings per hour after subtracting all expenses
- Quick Entry: Log income or expenses in under 5 seconds
- Dashboard: Color-coded traffic light system shows which hustles are thriving (green), okay (yellow), or struggling (red)
- Hustle Scorecard: Compare all your hustles side-by-side ranked by profitability
- Start/Stop Timer: Track hours automatically with a built-in timer
- Efficiency Map: Scatter plot visualization showing effort vs. reward across all hustles
- Trend Charts: 6-month income and hourly rate trends per hustle
- Recurring Transactions: Set up weekly, biweekly, monthly, or yearly recurring income and expenses
- Monthly Goals: Set income goals per hustle and track progress
- Expense Categories: Organize expenses with built-in and custom categories
- CSV Export: Export all transactions, time entries, and summaries
- Home Screen Widgets: See today's earnings and top hustle rate at a glance
- Signals: Smart 5-state indicators (Scale, Maintain, Test Longer, Review, Consider Stopping) for each hustle

YOUR DATA STAYS PRIVATE

This update polishes the everyday experience and smooths out a few rough edges.

- Time Log now updates the moment you log an entry, no need to leave the screen and come back.
- Tap anywhere on a hustle row to open it, not just the text.
- The entire Export CSV row is now tappable.
- The Time Log and Recent Transactions lists now show how to delete an entry (touch and hold).
- Removing a hustle now clearly deletes it, along with its transactions and time entries, and returns you to the dashboard.
- Cleaner, rounded Hours values in your CSV exports.

Thanks for using HustleBooks. Keep tracking which hustles are worth your time.
