About

Moondane

Read full description

Moondane is a simple, privacy-first expense tracker that makes it effortless to log what you spend, and finally see where your money goes. No bank login. No account required. Nothing leaves your phone. SIMPLE Add an expense in seconds. Amount, date, category, done. No setup wizard, no learning curve, no ads. SIRI Say "Log an expense in Moondane" and Siri writes it down without opening the app. Siri asks for the amount and the category, then shows you the expense it saved. You can undo it. SHORTCUTS Every Siri action is a Shortcuts action too. Put Log Expense on your Lock Screen, on the Action button, or inside a shortcut of your own. Quick Log reads one dictated sentence, so "12 on groceries yesterday" is a whole expense. On a device with Apple Intelligence the sentence is read on the device itself. CLEAR A monthly breakdown chart shows which categories are eating your income. Compare this month against your 12-month average to see whether you are drifting. BUDGETS Set a budget for any category over any period, a month, a quarter, a year, and Moondane tells you when you are heading over. SUBSCRIPTIONS Track recurring payments in one place and spot the streaming services you stopped using months ago. TAGS Tag expenses across categories to answer questions like "how much did that trip actually cost?" WIDGETS Keep daily and monthly spending on your Home Screen and Lock Screen. READY FOR iOS 27 Built on the newest system frameworks, with a transactions list that stays live while you edit. Moondane runs on iPhone and iPad, at any window size. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your data is stored on your device and synced through your own iCloud account using Apple's secure framework. It does not count against your iCloud storage. No servers, no logins, no tracking, nothing to sell. Works fully offline. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Import from CSV and export any time, in a format you can open anywhere. No lock-in. Moondane is free to use. Premium unlocks budgets, tags and the recurring transactions view.
