Keep track of money you owe and money owed to you in a private ledger. Record IOUs, partial payments, due dates, and reminders so every balance is easier to follow. WHY SACRED DUO A simple truth: money owed between people is one of the most common sources of friction. Sacred Duo gives you a quiet place to track every loan, IOU, rent payment, freelance invoice, and split tab — without sharing your ledger with Sacred Duo or third parties.

A gold Tree of Life motif weaves through the experience, a quiet reminder of value, growth, and integrity. PRIVACY BY DESIGN • 100% free, forever — no paid tier, no subscriptions, no IAP • Local-first storage on your iPhone • Private Apple iCloud Key-Value Store restore/sync when iCloud is available • No Sacred Duo accounts or logins • No analytics, no trackers, no ads • No banking APIs, no third-party SDKs • Your ledger is yours alone FEATURES • Dashboard with totals at a glance • "Owed To Me" and "I Owe" lists • Add, edit, and settle entries in seconds • Partial payment tracking with progress • Local notifications for due dates • Closed-entry History view • Search and filters • Dark Mode native • Optimized for iPhone Sacred Duo is intentionally simple.
