TrackNest shows you where your money goes. Track expenses and income, set budgets, and get clear insights without spreadsheets. Transactions can be captured automatically. Set up a one-time iOS Shortcut to forward your bank SMS, and each purchase, transfer, and payment is parsed, categorized, and added for you. You can also enter transactions by hand. Spending is sorted into categories like groceries, transport, bills, and dining, and you can create categories of your own. Correct a merchant once and TrackNest remembers it. Set a budget on any category and get a push alert as you approach it. Follow trends, category breakdowns, and monthly summaries, and see your net worth across cash, cards, gold, and stocks, with gold priced live. Recurring charges are tracked so renewals are never a surprise. TrackNest never accesses your bank account and never asks for banking passwords. Messages are read for transaction details only, and your data is never sold. You can lock the app with Face ID, export your data, or delete it at any time. TrackNest Pro goes further, with advanced analytics, unlimited budgets, rules, and custom categories, investment tracking, data export, and a full set of home screen widgets. Subscriptions are billed through your App Store account and can be cancelled anytime in your App Store settings.

TipDeck

What did you actually make last night? TipDeck adds up the night — cash tips, card tips, tip-out paid, hours — and gives you the one number a pile of cash on the bed cannot: what you really made per hour. One payment. No ads, no account, no subscription. LOG A SHIFT IN ABOUT FIFTEEN SECONDS Open, tap, four numbers, save. The date is already today, and yesterday is one tap away. Sales, a note, who you tipped out and noncash tips are folded away under More details until you want them. YOUR REAL HOURLY — NOT YOUR TIP TOTAL Tips, minus what you tipped out, plus your base wage, over the hours you actually worked. Add your base wage and TipDeck shows your real hourly. Leave it out and it shows what you made from tips and says so, on every screen. It never passes one off as the other. THE WEEK, THE MONTH, THE YEAR A seven-bar week strip and this week's tips on the home screen. A month grid where every worked day carries a bar, so the month reads as a shape before you read a single number. Rollups for the week, the month and the year: earnings, tips received, tip-out paid, hours, hourly. FIND YOUR BEST NIGHTS Cash versus card. Your hourly by night of the week. Year against last year, compared like for like. Bars only, always from zero, every chart stating its period and how many shifts it rests on. No trend arrows, no scores, no cheerleading. THE DAILY RECORD Keeps the daily record of your tips, shift by shift, with the date you entered it. Cash and card broken out separately. Tip-out paid on its own line, never quietly netted away. Export a dated, printable PDF laid out for a tax preparer. TipDeck is a record-keeping tool, not tax advice. Every amount shown is one you entered yourself. Ask a tax professional what applies to you. TipDeck is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by the IRS or the U.S. Department of the Treasury. YOUR DATA IS YOURS Export your own entries to CSV — free, forever, unlock or no unlock. There is no account to make, no server to sync to, and no analytics or advertising code in the app at all. Nothing you type leaves your phone unless you hand it to something yourself. WHAT THE UNLOCK COSTS, PLAINLY One payment. You pay it once, not every year. Your first three shifts save before the unlock appears. After that the unlock keeps you logging, opens the analysis section, and adds the dated PDF record. Viewing, editing and deleting everything you already entered stays open either way — and so does CSV export. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO WORK FOR TIPS Servers, bartenders, baristas, hosts, bussers, valets, delivery drivers, stylists, dealers — anyone whose pay arrives in pieces. Works offline. Dynamic Type and VoiceOver throughout, including the charts. English, Spanish and French.
