Tally turns what you say into a tracked expense. Say "twelve euros on coffee" and it is logged — amount, currency, category, date. No forms, no tapping through menus. Type it instead if you would rather, in whatever words come naturally. Or enter it by hand, which works offline and always will. WHAT IT DOES • Speak an expense and it is parsed and saved • Type a sentence — "8 dollars lunch yesterday" — and it understands, dates included • Mention several purchases at once and each becomes its own entry • Enter amounts by hand, no connection needed • 100+ currencies, converted to your base currency automatically • A monthly budget showing what is left, and what you can spend per day to stay inside it • History grouped by day, editable any time CATEGORIES Transport, groceries, cafe, health, shopping, entertainment, subscriptions and other — assigned for you, changed in one tap. YOUR DATA Tally has no accounts. Nothing to sign up for, no email, no password. Your expenses are stored on your iPhone and we never receive a copy. Voice and AI text entry work by sending that one recording or sentence away to be processed. The app explains this and asks before it ever happens. Decline and manual entry keeps working. Manual entry never leaves your device. FREE PLAN 10 AI entries a month, shared between voice and text. Manual entry is unlimited and always free. TALLY PRO Unlimited voice and AI text entries for $4.99 per month, with the first 7 days free. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in Settings on your device.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is device support: Expense tracker at 3 against Tally's 1. Expense tracker also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.6). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Expense tracker sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Tally sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
