Growing Ledger
Read full descriptionHide full description
Growing Ledger is a personal budgeting app that shows this month's spending flow at a glance ā as a tree. Set your monthly income and fixed expenses, and the app calculates what you can freely spend this month. Every time you record an expense or extra income, your remaining balance and usage rate update, and the tree changes with them, so you can feel where your spending is heading without reading numbers. Important flow comes first; the details wait for you in the Overview screen. When a month ends, that month's tree and leftover are saved, so past months gather into a small forest. No sign-in, no account. Your budget stays quietly on your device.
