Some ledgers belong to your private everyday life. Others tell the story of two people, one household, or a group heading somewhere together. WeTally keeps your personal ledgers private while letting you invite the people who matter to track a shared ledger together. Everyone can add their part from their own device and stay aligned on spending, budgets, reimbursements, trips and the stories behind them. Private ledgers are never exposed by sharing. Only a shared ledger you intentionally create or join is synchronized among its members through iCloud. Owners manage members and permissions; participants can edit or view according to access. Leaving removes the ledger only from that participant, while owners receive a clear warning before deleting a ledger for everyone. Expense tracking isn't only about numbers. It's also about remembering life—and the people who share it with you. 【Features】 * Shared Ledgers: Invite family, partners, friends or teammates to contribute to the same ledger from their own devices. * Members & Permissions: Manage members through Apple's system sharing interface, with edit and view-only access. * Private by Design: Personal ledgers never appear in shared ledgers, and every shared ledger keeps its data separate. * Shared Transaction Settings: Categories, payment methods, platforms and templates belong only to the current shared ledger. * Complete Shared Tools: Reimbursements, chapters, activity analysis, balance trends, category trends, import, export and collaboration details. * Existing Entry Points: Balance Overview, widgets, Shortcuts and deep links can all select shared ledgers. * Chapters: Group transactions for trips, gatherings, renovations and holidays, then add reflections and photos. * Multiple Ledgers: Keep personal, household and work finances organized independently. * Reimbursements: Track pending and completed reimbursements clearly. * Financial Analysis: Review daily, weekly, monthly and yearly charts. * Balance & Category Trends: Understand how balances and spending habits change over time. * Monthly Budgets & Reminders: Plan spending and build a consistent tracking habit. * iCloud Sync: Sync private data across your devices and shared data among members who joined. * Widgets & Shortcuts: View key figures and log transactions faster. * Import & Export: Bring in bills and export summaries, reimbursements and transaction details. * Privacy Controls: Protect sensitive totals with Face ID or Touch ID where supported. * 10 Languages: English, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean and more. 【About Shared Ledgers】 * Shared ledgers require iCloud and Apple's system sharing services. Sync timing can vary with network and device conditions. * Owners can delete a shared ledger for everyone; participants can leave without affecting the owner or other members. The app explains the impact before either action. * WeTally+ membership belongs to each individual. Premium features depend on the current member's own subscription and ledger permission. * More answers are available under Shared Ledger Help in Settings. 【Subscription Terms】 * A paid subscription is required to unlock all premium features. * Subscription periods: 1 Month, 3 Months, and 1 Year. * Pricing: $0.99/month; $2.99/quarter; $9.99/year. * Payment will be charged to your iTunes Account at confirmation of purchase. All subscriptions come with a 1-month free trial and automatically renew. * Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. * Your Apple ID account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. * Manage or cancel subscriptions under Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. 【Privacy Policy】 https://gitee.com/huangrunhua/TallyApp/blob/main/WeTally%E9%9A%90%E7%A7%81%E6%94%BF%E7%AD%96.md 【Terms of Use】 https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
