Camber Money
Read full descriptionHide full description
Camber is the expense tracker that stays out of your way and out of your data. It's private to you: only you can see your numbers. LOG IN SECONDS Tap +, type the amount, save. Everything else is optional: a category, a name (the ones you've used appear as you type), a date when it wasn't today, and a Repeat chip that turns any entry into a recurring rule — rent, payroll, subscriptions — posted automatically when they come due. Your likeliest categories for the time of day come first. Switching from another app? Import your history from a CSV file. FOURTEEN CATEGORIES, ONE TAP DEEPER Dining out, Groceries, Coffee, Transit, Shopping, Entertainment, Health, Home, Bills, Pets, Travel, Subscriptions, Savings and Other. Seven split further if you want — Lunch, Gas, Clothing, Gifts, Self-care, Utilities, Vet and more — and you can add your own. FOUR WAYS TO TRACK • Just track — see where it goes first • One total budget — a single number for the month • Budget by category — groceries, dining, shopping, each with its own envelope • Hit a saving goal — set a target and pace toward it Switch anytime. Your history carries over. SEE WHERE IT GOES A spending donut by category — tap one to see it by sub-category. Tap a day on Home to see what it went on. With Camber Plus: a cashflow waterfall that walks from paydays to your net, your recurring bills on a calendar, and every dollar on each card, split by category — including annual fees. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Private to you: only you can see your numbers. No ads, no analytics, no tracking. • Encrypted iCloud backup, if you turn it on: sealed on your iPhone before it reaches your own iCloud, so neither Apple nor Camber can read it. It comes back by itself on a new iPhone. • Face ID lock, and Hide amounts: every figure blurred until you choose to show it. • The app switcher never shows your balances. • Or export one password-locked backup file and keep it anywhere. RECEIPTS, KEPT SIMPLE With Camber Plus, snap the paper receipt and it stays with the entry — up to five photos each, stored on your phone. The photos you have go into your own encrypted backups on every plan (a backup file can leave them out if you choose). NINE CURRENCIES CAD, USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, HKD, CNY, KRW — log in any of them and Camber converts to your home currency. Camber Plus adds a travel mode and your own FX rates. CAMBER PLUS The free plan is the real app, not a trial: 15 new entries a week (the first week has no limit; imports never count), 2 recurring rules, every built-in category and sub-category plus 3 of your own, one custom category, a budget envelope for every category, CSV import and encrypted iCloud backup. Plus removes the limits and adds the power tools: • Unlimited entries and recurring rules • Cashflow waterfall, recurring calendar, card insights and month-over-month comparisons • Custom categories and sub-categories, your own colors and emoji • Receipt photos, five home-screen widgets, CSV export • Travel mode with your own FX rates Camber Plus is an auto-renewing monthly or yearly subscription; the App Store shows your price before you buy. Eligible new subscribers start with 14 days free. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends, in Settings → your name → Subscriptions. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://cambermoney.app/legal/privacy Additional terms: https://cambermoney.app/legal/terms Tracking works offline. Online, Camber checks the App Store for your subscription and fetches a public card-terms list weekly, sending no user data. iCloud backup, if you turn it on, saves a copy encrypted on your iPhone to your own iCloud; a new install looks there only if your iCloud Keychain already holds your Camber backup key. Referrals, if you join, store a random code and your iCloud account's identifier in Camber's iCloud database — never your transactions.
