RefundHound

RefundHound is a refund tracker for the returns you've already sent back. Log the refund, set the date the merchant promised, and get reminded the moment it's late. Sent something back and never saw the money? Refunds slip through the cracks because nobody is keeping score โ the return goes out, the promised date passes quietly, and weeks later you've forgotten the amount, the date, and who to chase. RefundHound keeps score for you. HOW IT WORKS 1. Log the refund โ merchant, amount, and the date they promised 2. Get a reminder when that date arrives: did the money land? 3. Tap "Got it" and the refund closes. Tap "Not yet" and RefundHound keeps chasing. IT ESCALATES SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO An ordinary reminder app nags you with the same message forever. RefundHound changes its advice as a refund ages: โข First โ check your account, the promised window has passed โข Then โ time to contact support, with a ready-to-send message you copy in one tap โข Then โ if you paid by card, here's how disputing the charge works โข Finally โ keep waiting, or write it off and move on? Reminders arrive every three days and stop after six. It chases the merchant, not you. EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO MAKE THE CASE โข Attach a receipt photo from your camera or gallery โข Record the refund method โ card, PayPal, store credit, bank transfer or other โข Add a note for the order number or the agent who promised it โข Copy a pre-written support message with the exact dates and amount filled in โข Full ISO currency support, from USD and EUR to JPY, SEK and KWD SEE WHAT YOU'VE RECOVERED A running total of every refund that actually landed, plus counts of what arrived and what you wrote off. Searchable history of every closed refund. Export the lot to CSV whenever you like โ and import it back on a new phone. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up, no server. Every refund, note and receipt photo lives in a database on your phone and nowhere else. No ads, no trackers, no analytics. Cloud backup is deliberately switched off, because receipt photos are personal โ CSV export is how you move your data, and you control it. BUILT TO FEEL RIGHT โข Light and dark themes โข Full screen-reader and accessibility support โข Follows your device language โข Undo on delete and write-off, so a mis-tap is never permanent WHO IT'S FOR Anyone waiting on money back โ online shoppers with returns in transit, travellers owed a cancelled booking, anyone whose deposit, reimbursement or subscription refund has quietly gone missing. RefundHound is free to use, and free to track up to three active refunds at a time. A single one-time purchase unlocks unlimited active refunds โ never a subscription. History, statistics and CSV export are free for everyone. Stop hoping the money shows up. Start tracking it.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Money Log at none against RefundHound's 1. RefundHound's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
