From the Developer: "Pocket Ledger was created as a replacement for our finance spreadsheet. We wanted something that preserved the clarity and structure of a workbook, but presented the information in a more polished, professional, and purpose-built format." The app is designed for simple monthly snapshots, long-term visibility, and uses on-device storage only!
