No subscription. No ads. No account. AusgabenKompass is the household budget app for two people who share costs — and for everything you want to keep private. Add expenses in seconds, organise them into categories and plans such as holidays, moving home or renovations, and always see who owes whom what. The red “Open balance” card always shows the overall amount to settle, regardless of individual category or plan balances. For every entry, you decide whether it stays private or is shared. SHARED OR PRIVATE • Private expenses stay on your device • Share expenses with an invited person through your iCloud sharing • Split costs 50/50, choose a fixed currency amount, or use any percentage from 0 to 100%; the remaining share is calculated automatically • Keep balances, partial settlements and settlement history easy to follow ORGANISED WITHOUT THE EFFORT • Categories, payment methods and your own plans for trips and projects • Filter by date range, category, plan, payment method and sharing status • Monthly total and a monthly Home Screen widget YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • Create and restore a complete backup at any time — free, even without Plus • Disconnect from a shared ledger, delete the iCloud ledger or erase this iPhone only • No user account, no registration, no advertising or analytics tools AUSGABENKOMPASS PLUS — ONE-TIME, NOT MONTHLY Plus is a one-time purchase.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dibsflow at none against AusgabenKompass's 1. AusgabenKompass's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
