About

Bill Docket

Read full description

Some people are naturally on top of their bills. You know who you are — and you know that's not you. Bill Docket is for the rest of us. If you've ever paid late because something slipped your mind, been charged a fee a reminder could have prevented, or scrambled to figure out what's been paid and what hasn't — this app was made for you. WHAT BILL DOCKET DOES Bill Docket is a manual bill tracker built around one idea: see everything before it becomes a problem. You log your bills. You log your payments. The app keeps it organized and reminds you before things go wrong. No bank syncing. No automatic imports. No algorithm guessing at your finances. Every entry is intentional — because intention is the whole point. TRACK EVERY BILLER Add every recurring expense: rent, utilities, subscriptions, insurance, loans, credit cards, medical, property taxes. Set the due date, amount, and frequency once. Fixed amounts stay fixed. Variable bills show an estimate until you log what you actually paid. LOG PAYMENTS, NOT ASSUMPTIONS When you pay, mark it paid. Enter the amount, payment method, and confirmation number. Every payment is stored permanently — so you always know what was paid, when, and for how much. GET REMINDED BEFORE IT'S LATE Set reminders 7 days, 3 days, 1 day, or the day a bill is due. An overdue alert fires the next morning if something goes unpaid. Set global defaults once, or customize notifications per biller. UNDERSTAND WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES Monthly reports show everything paid broken down by category. Annual reports show the full year by month. The Trends view tracks how each biller's amount has changed over time — useful when a recurring bill quietly keeps creeping up. Export PDF reports or CSV data whenever you need a record. PLAN AHEAD WITH FORECAST See what's due over the next 30, 60, 90, or 365 days based on each biller's frequency and recent amounts. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE • Biller profiles with contact info, website, phone, and account number • Multiple households for a rental, second home, or family member (Multiple Household in-app purchase) • Custom categories • Auto-pay flagging so automatic drafts don't show as overdue • Archived billers for closed accounts • App lock via Face ID or Passcode • CSV import to migrate from a spreadsheet and CSV export • Camera scanner to capture text directly from a bill or screen • Trends analysis, PDF Reports export, and bill attachments — attach photos or PDFs to any entry (Pro in-app purchase) THE APP THAT EXPECTS ONE THING Bill Docket won't connect to your bank or pull in transactions automatically. It asks one thing: when a bill arrives or a payment is made, log it. It works because you work it.
