Sandouq is a modern cash book that lives entirely on your iPhone. Track income, expenses, receipts, and balances across multiple cash boxes — without giving up your privacy. KEY FEATURES • Multi-currency support with locale-aware formatting, including zero-decimal currencies (IQD, JPY, KRW, …) • Multiple cash books on the same device — for household, business, savings, or shared accounts • Receipt scanning via the camera, plus photo library import • Smart categories, tags, and people for organizing every transaction • Cash closings to lock a month or quarter and audit the totals • PDF reports with cover page, custom date ranges, and a receipt appendix • CSV import for migrating from another tracker • Audit log with a timestamp for every change • Trend charts, monthly and yearly summaries, donut breakdowns by category • Eastern Arabic numerals (٠١٢٣) when the Arabic locale is active PRIVATE BY DEFAULT • No accounts, no sign-up, no tracking, no ads • All data lives on-device by default • Optional iCloud sync uses your own iCloud — Sandouq never sees it • App Lock with PIN and Face ID / Touch ID, plus a configurable auto-lock timeout • Hide-amounts toggle to peek without exposing balances at a glance SHARING Invite trusted family members to a shared cash book via Apple's CloudKit. The recipient needs an Apple ID, and you stay in control of who has access. A separate "Public link sharing" toggle, off by default, controls whether the invitation can be delivered through any channel (WhatsApp, Telegram) or only through Apple's first-party clients (iMessage, Mail). BILINGUAL FROM DAY ONE Sandouq speaks both Arabic and English natively — full RTL layout, Eastern Arabic numerals, locale-aware currency formatting. Multi-currency support handles USD, EUR, IQD, and many others. PDF reports render right-to-left when Arabic is active. NO THIRD-PARTY DEPENDENCIES Sandouq is built using Apple frameworks only — SwiftUI, SwiftData, CloudKit. No advertising SDKs, no analytics SDKs, no tracker libraries.
