Pave vs PlentyBook

Pave is the private expense tracker and budget planner built for people who want real control of their money — not another app that links your bank account and sells your data. Track every dollar. Build smarter habits. Watch your savings grow. Everything stays on your device — always. WHY PAVE IS DIFFERENT Most budgeting apps are cluttered, slow, and demand your banking login. Pave is the opposite: fast, private, and genuinely beautiful. No account. No cloud. No bank connection. No data selling. Just you and your money. TRACK SPENDING IN SECONDS Logging an expense or income is faster than unlocking your phone. A big, thumb-friendly keypad, one-tap categories, optional notes — done. Add your own custom categories with any icon and color. ONE CLEAR MONTHLY BUDGET See exactly how much you have left to spend this month at a glance. Set an overall budget plus per-category limits (Groceries, Transport, Eating Out, anything), and Pave tracks your pace automatically so you know if you're on track or overspending. BUDGET ALERTS Get a heads-up notification when you're nearing or passing a budget — so you adjust before the month gets away from you. RECURRING & SUBSCRIPTIONS Set rent, salary, Netflix or any repeating transaction once and Pave logs it for you. A dedicated screen shows everything you pay on repeat and your total monthly recurring cost. INSIGHTS THAT ACTUALLY HELP Beautiful, interactive charts for any period — day, week, month, year, or a custom range. See where your money goes by category, income vs. expenses over time, your biggest expense, top spending category, savings rate, and your spending pattern by day of the week. SMART SEARCH & FILTERS Find any transaction instantly. Filter your full history by date, custom range, amount, category, type, or recurring status. MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS Keep Personal, Business, Cash, or Family budgets cleanly separated — each with its own currency, budget, and transactions. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Protect everything with Face ID / Touch ID. Your financial data never leaves your iPhone. No sign-up, no tracking, no ads. YOUR DATA, YOUR CONTROL Full backup & restore in one tap, plus CSV export for spreadsheets and tax season — and CSV import to bring your history with you.

We never collect, store, or sell your financial information. Your money is your business. Download Pave today and finally feel in control of where your money goes.

PlentyBook is a checkbook register, and nothing more than that. Type an amount. Tap Income or Expense. Done — the keypad is always on screen, so adding a line takes about two seconds and never opens a single pop-up. MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS Keep a register for checking, for savings, for the cash in your pocket. Give each one a colour so you always know which book you're in at a glance. Every account is completely separate — no shared budget, no combined pot, no cross-talk. A RUNNING BALANCE ON EVERY LINE See what the balance was after each entry, the way a paper register works. Newest entries sit at the top, where you actually look. SIMPLE BY DEFAULT Out of the box there are three ideas: a starting balance, money in, and money out. Notes are optional. Categories, day grouping, and marking entries as cleared all exist — but every one of them is switched off until you decide you want it. LIGHT, OR NOT Light by default, because most checkbook apps are relentlessly dark. Flip it to Inverted if you prefer, or let it follow your system. FIND ANYTHING Search notes, amounts, or categories. Results show how many matched and what they add up to, so "how much have I spent on coffee" is one search away. QUICK AUDIT Money in, money out, and the net for this month, last month, the last 30 days, this year, or any range you pick. LOCK IT Require Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode to open the app — or to open just one account. Off by default, and free. SYNC, IF YOU WANT IT Switch on iCloud sync and your register follows you to your other devices, through your own iCloud. It is off until you turn it on, it comes with the unlock, and you can turn it back off whenever you like. YOUR DATA IS YOURS No account. No sign-up. No email address. No analytics, no trackers, no ads. PlentyBook has no server, so your register never comes to us. It stays on your device unless you switch on iCloud sync, and then it goes to your own iCloud and your own devices. Sync is off until you turn it on, and you can turn it back off. Export a backup to a plain, readable file whenever you like. That's free, always, whether you buy anything or not. FREE, WITH ONE OPTIONAL PURCHASE PlentyBook is free with one account. A single $9.99 purchase unlocks unlimited accounts and iCloud sync — one payment, no subscription. Built by ASHA Technology LLC.
