## What is Pocket?

Pocket is the expense tracker that doesn't feel like work.

Say it out loud — "I spent 50 EGP on coffee" — and it's logged. Or let Pocket read your bank SMS and log it for you, automatically.

Most people quit tracking their spending within a week. Not because they don't care about money, but because typing every purchase into a form is a chore nobody keeps up with. Pocket removes the chore.

LOG BY VOICE
Hold the mic and speak naturally, in Arabic or English. Pocket catches the amount, picks the category, and saves it. Two seconds, done.

AUTOMATIC SMS TRACKING
Your bank already texts you every time you spend. Pocket turns those messages into expenses on their own — nothing to type, nothing slips through.

TYPE WHEN YOU NEED TO
Somewhere quiet, or somewhere loud? Add an expense manually in a few taps.

INCOME AND BALANCE
Log what comes in, not just what goes out. Know what's actually left before the month ends.

CLEAR MONTHLY VIEW
Every transaction in one place with a running monthly total. No spreadsheets, no setup.

FIX MISTAKES FAST
Wrong amount? Wrong category? Edit in a tap. Swipe to delete, with undo.

WORKS OFFLINE
Log now, sync later. No signal needed.

YOUR DATA IS YOURS
Encrypted and backed up. Never sold, never shared.

POCKET PRO
Unlimited voice logging and no ads. The free plan includes 30 logs a month. Upgrade anytime, cancel anytime.

Permissions: Microphone, for voice input.

Built in Egypt, for people who want to know where their money goes without turning it into a second job.

Pocket is improving every week. Tell us what you need, we're listening.
