Masareef is a fast, private expense tracker that does the boring part for you. Most money apps make you type in every purchase, and after a week you stop. Masareef turns your bank's own SMS alerts into transactions. Set it up once and your spending files itself, even while the app is closed. Everything stays private on your phone, works offline once you're signed in, and never reaches an analytics service. AUTOMATIC SPENDING CAPTURE • A guided one-time setup builds the Shortcuts automation for you, step by step • After that, bank messages become transactions on their own, and a banner says what was captured • Card payments, transfers, top-ups, ATM withdrawals and income, each to the right wallet • Or share any bank message to Masareef from the share sheet in one tap • Review before it posts, or let confident payments post automatically, with undo • Auto-tracking stays off until you turn it on, and off again any time WORKS WITH YOUR BANK Recognises payment alerts from 469 banks, wallets and payment apps, including: • Egypt — NBE, Banque Misr, CIB, QNB Alahli, Banque du Caire, AAIB, Bank of Alexandria, HSBC, ADIB, Al Baraka, aiBANK • Egypt wallets — InstaPay, Vodafone Cash, Orange Cash, e& Cash, WE Pay, Fawry, Telda, ValU, Meeza, Contact • Saudi Arabia — Al Rajhi, SNB, Riyad Bank, SAB, Alinma, Albilad, Bank Aljazira, stc pay, urpay • Gulf & MENA — Emirates NBD, FAB, ADCB, Mashreq, Dubai Islamic Bank, NBK, QNB, Arab Bank • Worldwide — HDFC, Paytm, GCash, M-PESA, Revolut, Wise, Barclays, Chase, Nubank Masareef is an independent app, not affiliated with or endorsed by any bank or wallet listed, and it never asks for your banking password.

About

Floosi

Read full description

Floosi turns the messages your bank already sends into a clear picture of where your money goes. Every time you use your card, your bank texts you. Floosi reads that message — on your device — and files the purchase against the right card, with the merchant and category already worked out. No linking accounts. No handing your banking login to anyone. THREE WAYS TO TRACK • Automatically, from bank SMS. Set up one Shortcuts automation and purchases file themselves as they happen. • By hand. Tap + on the Home tab and enter anything — cash, a transfer, a bill. • From a PDF statement. Bring in months of history at once. Parsing runs on your device. WHAT YOU GET • A dashboard for the week, month, quarter, year to date or full year — each with the change against the period before. • A spending calendar. Busier days shade darker, so a heavy week is obvious at a glance. • An inbox for anything uncategorized. Categorize one coffee shop and every charge from it follows — past and future. • Cards and balances for every bank you follow, matched automatically by the last four digits. • Categories you control, with your own keywords. • Search across everything, and CSV export whenever you want your data somewhere else. • Multiple currencies, converted to your default automatically. PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION • No account. There is nothing to sign up for and no password to lose. • No server. Your transactions, cards and message text live in Floosi on this iPhone and nowhere else. • Nothing sold, ever. No ads, no advertising SDKs, no data brokers. • The only thing that leaves your phone is five anonymous usage events, listed by name in Settings › Privacy Policy — and you can switch them off. FOUR LANGUAGES English, Arabic, French and German FREE, AND ONE OPTIONAL PURCHASE Floosi follows your first card free, with every feature above included. Following more than one card is a single one-time purchase — not a subscription. It never renews, and there is nothing to cancel. ABOUT BANK MESSAGES iOS does not let any app read your Messages, and Floosi doesn't. Automatic capture works through a Shortcuts automation you set up once in Apple's own Shortcuts app — Floosi walks you through it with screenshots. Manual entry and PDF import need no setup at all.
