CashKit
Read full descriptionHide full description
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.

Sonem is an expense tracker that stays on your phone. Amount, category, done — with instant category totals, budgets and savings goals, and no account to create, ever. WHY SONEM IS DIFFERENT Most finance apps start by asking for your bank login. Sonem never asks — there's no sign-up, no cloud sync, no bank linking. Everything you log lives on your device and nowhere else, and the app works fully offline. Manual entry is deliberate. Typing the amount takes a few seconds, and that small moment is the point: you notice what you spend. Noticing is how spending changes. WHAT YOU GET - Fast manual logging — amount, category, done - Instant category totals with a six-month breakdown - Monthly budgets with progress you can read at a glance - Savings goals you add toward as you go - Full history, filterable by category, day, week, month, or year - A daily streak that keeps the logging habit alive - Income and expenses side by side - Categories you can rename and re-emoji — changes apply everywhere, instantly PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE Privacy isn't a setting in Sonem — it's the structure. Your financial data never leaves your phone. With no account, there's nothing to breach and nothing to sell. You don't have to trust a privacy policy; there's simply nothing to collect it from. BUILT FOR A DAILY RITUAL Open, log, close. Sonem is designed around a daily check-in that takes seconds — the streak keeps you honest, the category bars show the shape of your month, and the budgets tell you when to ease off. No dashboards to configure. No reports to export. Just you, your numbers, and a habit that compounds. Take control of what you spend — and keep it to yourself.
