## What is TetherFree?

A private shared budget for couples who manage money together — without giving up their financial privacy.
Connect your bank once and transactions arrive on their own, sorted into your budget.

BUDGET TOGETHER
• Shared budgets, bills, and savings goals for your household
• Each adult keeps a private view of their own money — share what you choose
• Split bills and see who's contributed

STAY ON TOP OF EVERY DOLLAR
• Bank sync: transactions import automatically (Plaid-secured; we never see your login)
• Monthly category budgets with clear progress
• Debt payoff plans — snowball or avalanche — with a real payoff date
• Track recurring bills with due-date reminders

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No ads. No tracking. Your data is never sold — ever.
• We collect only what the features need, nothing more.
• Delete your account and all data anytime from Settings

TetherFree Family ($5.99/mo or $59.99/yr, up to 5 members) and Family Plus ($11.99/mo or $119.99/yr, up to 10) unlock family sharing and bank sync. Every plan starts with 1 month free, and your founding price is locked while you stay subscribed.

Track and budget solo, free.

Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2.2 — 2026-09-02

Bug fixes.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-08-31

TetherFree 1.2.1 is a big one:
• Bank sync — connect your bank once and transactions arrive on their own
• Yearly plans with 2 months free, and 1 month free to try everything
• Sign in with Apple
• Dark mode that follows your phone
• A cleaner welcome — try the app before creating an account
• We removed our analytics tracking entirely. Privacy-first means exactly that.

### 1.2 — 2026-07-10

Kids Mode
Family members marked as children now get a purpose-built home screen — a big "money left" ring, their own savings goals, and a simple "I spent something" flow. Parents can pick between a playful Kids style and a cleaner Young Adult style per child.

Chores & rewards (optional per family)
Parents can create chores with dollar rewards. Kids claim them, parents approve, and the reward tops up the child's allowance automatically.

Category limits
Set per-category caps on a child's allowance so their spending stays on plan.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-06
