Expense Tracker is a beautifully simple expense tracker and budget app. No sign-up, no account — just open it and log a transaction in 3 seconds. The app pre-fills your most recent category and account, so you capture every income and expense without the hassle. WHY EXPENSE TRACKER - Scan to log: import a payment screenshot and the app reads the amount, date, and note on-device — confirm and save. No image is uploaded. - Fast entry: add an expense or income from the home screen in one tap, with common amounts a tap away. - Clear insights: monthly balance, income/expense trends, a category donut chart, and period-over-period comparison. - Monthly budget: set a spending cap and see used vs. remaining in real time. It also projects month-end spending from your current pace and warns you before you go over. - Records that stay tidy: grouped by day, searchable by note or amount, swipe to edit or delete. - Daily reminders: pick a time to build a daily logging habit, delivered via local notifications. - Accounts & categories: manage cash, bank cards, and wallets with icons or your own photos and a currency per account; track credit card statement dates and repayments; fully customizable categories. - Shared ledgers (Pro): share a chosen ledger with family through iCloud as read-only or editable. - Themes & currency: choose an accent color; the currency symbol follows your region or can be set manually. Amounts are never converted. - iCloud backup: back up to your own iCloud and restore after a reinstall or a new device. A Home Screen widget is included. - Languages: Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, English, Malay, Hindi and Spanish. PRIVACY FIRST - No accounts: no registration, no sign-in, no phone number or email collected. - Local-first: your records live on your device. Backups go to your own private iCloud space — we run no servers that store your ledger, and we cannot read it. - We never read your records for ads or profiling, and never sell your data. No ads. - Automatic backup can be switched off in Settings if you prefer manual only. Download Expense Tracker and start with today's first transaction.
