INACCURATE AS IT GETS
Response from developer
The app shows the US Treasury's number, not mine. Every figure comes from Debt to the Penny at fiscaldata.treasury.gov. That series starts April 1, 1993 at about $4.23 trillion, so the 1993 figure you saw is the Treasury's own first day. The trillion dollar gap is timing. The debt passed $37 trillion in August 2025 and $38 trillion on October 21, 2025. You wrote on October 18, when headlines still said $37 trillion and the daily figure was near $37.9 trillion. It climbs most business days because the Treasury sells securities most business days. It flattened for months in 2025 while the debt ceiling held. Find a day where the app disagrees with the Treasury and I will fix it. Larry, Moonwink Software

The only app with this info
I assume the developer is using either the DTS or the treasury direct api? In either case, it would be awesome to see a breakdown per security type / maturity date. Better yet, understanding how much debt is coming due each day, and then correlating that with what type of securities were issued that day to cover that redemption, plus add more "new money".
Another thing to consider, looking at the daily interest costs of carrying the growing debt. Surprisingly, it's gown down as the debt balloons! Seeing this in an app would be fantastic.
You get 5 stars for even getting this info out there. Thank you! Also, loving the new updates.
