CheckbookDash vs CashKit

**CheckbookDash is the modern, privacy-first checkbook register for iPhone.** Whether you're tracking daily expenses, monitoring your monthly budget, or simply keeping an eye on your bottom line, CheckbookDash keeps you in control — without ever sending your data anywhere. **Your Data, Your Device** Every transaction, category, and setting lives entirely on your iPhone. No account required. No cloud uploads. No subscriptions. No tracking of any kind. Just a clean, fast register that works offline, always. **A Smart Transaction Register** Log income and expenses in seconds. Each transaction captures the date, payee, amount, category, and optional notes. CheckbookDash automatically suggests a category based on the payee name using your own custom rules — the more rules you add, the smarter it gets. **Monthly Spending Dashboard** Visualize where your money goes with a beautiful bar chart broken down by category. Navigate forward and backward through months to spot trends, compare spending, and make more informed financial decisions. **Custom Categories & Auto-Categorization** Create categories that match your life. Set up rules so payees like "Whole Foods" or "Netflix" are categorized automatically every time you enter them. The longest-match rule always wins, so your most specific rules take priority. **CSV Import & Export** Bring in transactions from your bank's CSV export or share your register as a spreadsheet. Export by this month, last 3 months, or all time — your data, on your terms. **Designed for Comfort** - Compact or Comfy layout styles — your choice - Light, Dark, or System appearance - 8 accent color choices - Haptic and sound feedback - High contrast mode, reduced animations, and larger buttons for accessibility **No Ads. No Tracking. No Account. Free.** CheckbookDash is completely free. It contains no advertisements, no analytics SDKs, and no data collection of any kind. Your financial life is yours alone.

CashKit is a clean and intuitive expense tracker designed to make everyday money management simple. No ads. No in-app purchases. What makes CashKit different is Boards. Instead of putting every transaction into one long list, CashKit lets you create separate Boards for different parts of your life. You could have a Home Board for household spending, an Office Board for work expenses, or a Trip Board for everything you spend while travelling. Each Board keeps its transactions and spending activity organised separately. Your holiday expenses don’t get mixed with household spending, and your office purchases don’t clutter your personal finances. With CashKit, you can: • Create multiple Boards for different purposes • Record both expenses and income • Organise transactions into categories • Keep home, work, travel and other finances separate • Track recurring expenses and income • Review monthly and yearly spending Insights • Use multiple currencies with a selected primary currency • Search and filter your transactions • Import and export transaction data using CSV Whether you’re keeping track of household expenses, managing office spending, planning a trip, or simply trying to understand your finances better, CashKit gives every transaction the right place to belong. Different expenses. Different Boards. One CashKit.
