About

Dispatch

Features
Read full description

Type your money. One line at a time. Dispatch is an envelope budget you write like a note. Your balance is not money you can spend: all your money already has a job. Dispatch helps you give it one, then track every expense in a single line. HOW IT WORKS β€’ Fund the month's envelope: "Salary 5000". β€’ Split it into postes (Rent, Groceries, Transport…) until "To dispatch" reaches zero. β€’ Spend in one line: "25 Groceries bread". Amount, poste, note, account, date: in any order. β€’ Built-in maths (4.50*30), dates in plain words (yesterday, monday, 15/10) and autocomplete. ALWAYS KNOW WHERE YOU STAND β€’ Home shows what's left to allocate and what went over. β€’ A banner warns you when a poste is spending too fast. β€’ Adjust your postes mid-month to cover an overspend. β€’ Track a poste live on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. YOUR ACCOUNTS, AS THEY REALLY ARE β€’ Running and savings accounts, with aliases for faster entry. β€’ Transfers between accounts, fees included. β€’ Expected vs actual balance: spot a forgotten expense instantly. β€’ Attach a refund or a top-up to its expense and see the net cost, receipt photo included. SAVINGS & PROJECTS β€’ Set money aside for a goal and track its progress. β€’ Pin your key projects; use or release savings when you need them. STATISTICS β€’ Am I moving forward? What's taking up room? What's changing? Three questions, clear answers across months. WITH YOU EVERYWHERE β€’ iPhone and iPad, with a list-and-detail layout on iPad. β€’ Apple Watch: log an expense in a few taps. β€’ Widgets for the Home Screen and the watch. β€’ Synced with your own iCloud. YOUR PRIVACY β€’ No Dispatch account, no ads, no tracking. β€’ Your data stays in your iCloud. β€’ Hide your balances and protect them with Face ID; shake to hide everything. β€’ Full backup and restore, attachments included. Works with any currency. In English and French.
