A simple expense diary for daily spending, cash, and income. Just Money is the place to write down what you spend and earn. No bank login, no account, no ads—just a clean record of where your money goes. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Add expenses and income in seconds, with a built-in calculator • Use categories that match how you actually think about your money • See simple statistics for any period—by category, by month, by year • Compare income and expenses side by side • Track cash, daily spending, and household money • Export to CSV anytime • Code lock with Face ID support THE IDEA The idea is small: write down what you spent and what you earned. The act of typing a number and picking a category is where awareness lives—it's the reason Just Money is a manual app, not a bank-connected one. QUIET, PRIVATE, YOURS • No bank connection • No account to create • No ads • Your records stay on your device and your iCloud—not on a Just Money server BUILT TO LAST Just Money has been around since 2013. A one-time purchase stays a one-time purchase—we don't gate features you've already paid for. WHAT IT ISN'T Not a budgeting platform. Not accounting software. Not a bank-connected finance dashboard. A notebook for the money in your day. Questions, ideas, or feature requests? Write to hello@justmoney.nl—every email is read by the developer.

Your Spending app gives you a better way to manage your spending, and so much more. My name’s Marc Jarman, as a direct result of using the Your Spending app myself, not only did I discover complete clarity of my own spending situation, but over a 12 month period, I also found $15,000 in reduced yearly spending, (needless spending) and also lost 15kg (33lb) excess weight too. I first started Your Spending in 2018 because I was always asking myself these types of questions, "What payments have I got coming out (this week, this month, next month)?" With the ‘Automated Upcoming Payments Display’ you only have to open the app to be shown not only what payments you have coming out this week, but you can also see your entire spending for the next 12 months, as a result of a simple, one-time calendar entry that takes only 10 seconds to complete. Make late payment fees a thing of the past, with Your Spending app you'll always know when your car registration's due, when your electricity or phone bill's due, any bill or payment for that matter. With a simple tap you can now see well in advance which months of the year are more expensive for you than others. Another positive to Your Spending app is that you don’t link your bank accounts to it, you want your bank accounts to mirror the evolving spending situation you map out in the app, the $15,000 reduced yearly spending I found didn't all happen straight away, those changes happened over a 12 month period, one expense at a time. And lastly, one of the new features in Your Spending app is the 'Select Your Currency Symbol', if you're in the UK or Europe, you can now select either £ or € to display your spending.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Just Money Expense Diary at 4.9 against Your Spending's 3.7. Just Money Expense Diary also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (15 vs 3). Your Spending's advantage is review sentiment (94% vs 69%) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Just Money Expense Diary sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Your Spending sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Just Money Expense Diary holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Just Money Expense Diary has 15 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Just Money Expense Diary's written reviews are positive against 94% of Your Spending's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Just Money Expense Diary ships an update every 11 days, Your Spending every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
