Tally Pro now covers your whole family.

One subscription works for you and up to five family
members through Apple Family Sharing. Everyone keeps
their own account and their own private numbers —
sharing a subscription isn't sharing your spending.

Ask Tally is now free, for everyone.

The assistant that explains your money in plain
language is no longer part of Pro. It's free, for
good, for everybody.

Also in this release
- Cash Flow, Money Finder and Income are easier to find

THE MONEY BOOK
Your month as a real report. Every category, every trend, every subscription — exportable as a PDF you can actually keep.

A NEW WAY IN
Rebuilt first-run experience. Watch your income flow into what you actually keep, before you commit to a single number.

SECURITY & TRUST
A new page in More that tells you plainly how your money data is handled — what's encrypted, what's read-only, what we can and can't do. No marketing language.

- Rebuilt charts, a gorgeous new welcome screen, faster sign-in, dozens of fixes
-  INSTANT CAPTURE
Tap to pay and watch it land. Your purchase appears in Tally the same second — days before your bank reports it. When the bank's copy arrives, Tally merges the two automatically. No duplicates. No waiting. No typing.

- MONEY BRAIN — PRIVATE, ON-DEVICE
Ask your money anything and get an answer composed entirely on your iPhone. Nothing ever leaves the device. Pick your voice: Private Banker, Hype, or Roast.

- SAFE TO SPEND, EVERYWHERE
One number — what you can spend today without breaking the month — on your Lock Screen, Home Screen and StandBy. Payday, rent day and the month-end run now live in the Dynamic Island.

- SPLIT ANY TRANSACTION
One receipt, many categories. Pull a charge apart with a live remainder so groceries, gifts and everything else land exactly where they belong.

- FAMILY, REBUILT
True per-person spending, income-based fair shares, IOUs that actually reach the other person, and splits that get the direction and the currency right every time.
