Yavo is an expense tracker you can talk to. Say "Coffee, 4.80" and the expense is saved with its category. Yavo now works for freelancers too: a separate Business space keeps your work money apart, with your tax profile, tax deadlines and clients. ADD EXPENSES WITHOUT TYPING • Voice: say what you spent in your own words and watch the words appear as you speak. Yavo picks out the amount and the category. • Receipts: snap a paper receipt and Yavo reads the merchant, total, tax and line items. • Apple Pay: set up one Shortcuts automation and every Apple Pay payment becomes an expense (iOS 17 or later). • Email: send bank statements (CSV, XLSX, PDF) and receipts to your personal Yavo address. New senders need your approval first. • Share: send receipt photos, screenshots and PDFs to Yavo from any app. • Type it: date, category, payment method and notes, when you prefer to type. • No connection? What you add is saved and sent when you are back online. Imported transactions wait in one list for your review. FOR FREELANCERS: THE BUSINESS SPACE • Business and personal money apart, each with its own Home • Business income, expenses and profit, what to set aside for tax and what is free to spend • A tax profile for any country, with built-in rules for the US (sole proprietor), Germany (Kleinunternehmer or Regelbesteuerung) and Ukraine (FOP groups 1-3 and the general system) • A tax calendar for any coutry: payment and filing deadlines, with reminders before they are due • Clients: see who paid you what this year BUDGETS AND LIMITS • A monthly budget with a daily pace, so you know what is left for today • Category limits with alerts • Savings goals with a deadline and progress • Recurring payments and subscriptions in one place DEBTS AND NET WORTH • Credit cards, loans, mortgages and car loans with payoff progress, due dates and interest • Net worth across cash, stocks and crypto, priced automatically MORE • Any currency, with totals in your main currency • Attach photos and files to any transaction • Export any period: a PDF summary, a CSV of every transaction and the receipt images, sent to your email • A notifications inbox YOUR DATA Yavo never asks for your bank login or card numbers.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Yavo at none against Substract's shown. Substract's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 11 days). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
