Your spending never leaves your iPhone. No account, no server, no sign-up ā just the fastest way to see where your money goes. Tappel is a private spending tracker built deep into iOS. Log an expense in two seconds from Siri, the Action Button, a widget, or an NFC tag ā or wire an Apple Pay automation and let purchases log themselves. Point the camera at a paper receipt and the total, the shop and the date fill themselves in. WHY TAPPEL ⢠Private by architecture ā everything stays on your device and your own iCloud. The App Store privacy label reads "Data Not Collected" because there is nothing to collect. ⢠Two-second capture ā Siri, the Action Button, widgets, NFC and App Intents. ⢠Pay once, own it forever ā the personal app has no subscription. Subscription fatigue is why Tappel exists. FEATURES ⢠Receipt scanning ā read on your phone; the photo is never saved or sent ⢠Every currency ā European Central Bank rates where it publishes them, a daily market rate for the rest, cached on-device ⢠Calm monthly budgets ā over budget reads in ink, never red ⢠Recurring radar spots subscriptions before they surprise you ⢠Insights ā category breakdown, six-month trend, top merchants ⢠Face ID lock ⢠Custom categories ā presets or your own ⢠Export as CSV or JSON, import from CSV, any time ⢠Family budget ā share one limit, or none; each member uses their own Lifetime; individual purchases stay private ⢠iCloud sync between your iPhones ⢠Tappel Business, for companies in Poland ā invoices sent to and downloaded from KSeF, costs, a monthly summary and a package for your accountant; three documents free No bank login. No ads. No tracking. Just your money, quietly tracked. SUBSCRIPTION Tappel Business is an optional auto-renewable subscription, sold in Poland: 19.99 PLN a month or 149 PLN a year, with a 7-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Tappel at every 4 days against TapLedger's every 6 weeks. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
