About

CalcOwlator

Features
Read full description

CalcOwlator is a calculator that keeps its work. Write a list, give each line an amount, and the totals keep themselves right: section by section, month after month. TYPE IT LIKE A NOTE • "rent 1400", "3 coffees 5", "salary 4.2k". Each line becomes a row as you type. • Paste a whole list from Notes or a chat in one go. • Sections and section totals with a colon or an equals sign. SCAN INSTEAD OF TYPING • Point your camera at a receipt: the store, the date and every item come in, checked against the printed total. • With Pro, items are sorted into your sections as separate rows, and CalcOwlator learns where you put things. • Scan a bill to set its amount and due date, so you're reminded before it's due. • Barcodes remember their name and price after the first scan. Payment QR codes fill in who you paid. • Everything is read on your iPhone. Nothing is uploaded. TOTALS YOU CAN TRUST • Tap a total to see exactly how it was worked out. • Use one row in another: "Left over" is income minus bills, and stays right when either changes. • Exact decimal maths, so 1,977.075 rounds the way it should. BUDGETS THAT CARRY ON • Start next month from the list's menu, with what's left carried over. • Spending limits per section, due days with reminders, and ticks that mean paid, in the basket or done. • 14 templates: monthly and twice-a-month budgets, bills and subscriptions, groceries, a weekly allowance, a small shop, events, trips, savings goals, instalments and card payoff. Sample amounts follow your currency. • Linked templates where lists feed each other, like a budget that saves for a goal, or money sent home that lands in the family's budget. • A guide with a how-to for each task, and a list to try it on. YOUR ACCOUNTS, IN THE SAME PLACE • Cash, banks, e-wallets, credit cards and pay later, with bank lists for North America, the UK, Australia, Asia, the Middle East and the Philippines. • Say which account each row comes out of; balances follow what you tick. • Credit card statements, what's left to pay by the due date, and a reminder with a Mark paid button. AT A GLANCE • Widgets for your budget's total, what's due soon and how far a goal has come. • Export a list as a PDF, a picture for a chat, or a spreadsheet (CSV). • Face ID lock, and amounts hidden in the app switcher and widgets while it's on. CALCOWLATOR PRO Free includes 5 lists and nearly everything above. Pro adds unlimited lists and links between them, iCloud sync across your devices, the dashboard and month-by-month history, receipts split into separate rows, accounts in other currencies, and live account balances in your formulas. Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription (the yearly plan starts with a free week) or a one-time purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period, in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy: CalcOwlator collects no data. Your lists stay on your iPhone, and in your own iCloud if you turn on sync.
