Make everyday spending easier to see and easier to plan. Spendra is a focused expense tracker for recording purchases, setting a monthly budget and understanding where your money goes — across iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch. Free, always: • Add, edit, duplicate and delete unlimited expenses. • Organise records with categories, accounts, tags and notes. • See a clear Spending summary and searchable history with useful filters. • Set an overall monthly budget and configure reminders. • Protect access with Face ID or other device authentication. • Create and restore versioned JSON backups, and delete your data at any time. Spendra Pro is an optional monthly, annual or lifetime upgrade that unlocks: • Unlimited receipt scanning with Apple Vision; three useful scans are complimentary. • Full Insights with weekly, monthly and yearly periods, comparisons, charts and category drill-down. • Recurring-expense automation, subscription detection, price-change insights and renewal reminders. • CSV export. • Quick add with Siri and App Intents, from the Mac menu bar, and on Apple Watch. Pricing and any eligible introductory offer are shown in the app before purchase. Restore Purchases is available from the paywall and Settings. If Pro lapses, existing data is never deleted, hidden or made unreadable. Records sync through a private iCloud database. Apple Watch entries transfer to the paired iPhone through WatchConnectivity and then sync; availability depends on pairing and connection. Preferences remain device-local. Choose from the full ISO currency list. Spendra reports each currency separately and does not convert currencies or provide exchange rates. Spendra requires no separate account, does not connect to banks and does not provide financial advice. Camera, device authentication, notifications, Siri, exports and WatchConnectivity depend on device capabilities, permissions and system support.
