About

Mintor|Budget Management

Features
Read full description

Mintor is your money management assistant — a personal finance tracker that stays on your phone. No account. No sign-up. No cloud sync. Everything you record lives in your device's own database, and nothing leaves it. WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES See this month's balance, income, expenses and savings rate the moment you open the app. A donut chart breaks your spending down by category, so the thing quietly eating your month stops being a mystery. A WEEKLY LIMIT THAT ACTUALLY WARNS YOU Set a weekly spending limit and Mintor tracks it against your real expenses. At 80% you get a heads-up, and if you go over you'll know that too — not at the end of the month, when it's too late to do anything about it. YOUR WEEK IN NUMBERS, EVERY MONDAY A recap lands every Monday: what you spent, your top categories, your biggest single expense, and how the week compared with the one before it. DEBTS, BOTH DIRECTIONS Track what you owe and what you're owed in one place. Record part payments, watch the balance come down, see the payment history, and get a flag when something is overdue. BILLS THAT POST THEMSELVES Mark a transaction as recurring, pick the days of the month, and rent, salary and subscriptions post themselves. Set it once and stop re-typing it. MORE THAN ONE POCKET Keep bank, cash and your own accounts side by side, each with its own running balance, so you always know which pocket a number came from. BUILT THE WAY YOU LIKE IT • 14 languages — Turkish, English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Russian, Hindi, Indonesian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Arabic, with full right-to-left layout • 16 currencies, chosen independently of your language • Light, dark, or follow the system • Switch language instantly — no restart Mintor does one thing: it makes your own money legible to you. No budget philosophy to adopt, no bank login to hand over, no subscription.
