Hi everyone,
Recently I developed a mobile app as a side project for managing and planning personal finances.
I'm aware that there are already similar apps out there, I decided to build my own partly as a personal goal, and partly because there are many apps for tracking expenses, but not as many that focus on planning.
Here's a quick summary of what the app can do:
1. Track ✅
- Manage multiple accounts in different currencies
- Add expenses, income, and transfers
- Create categories for income and expenses
2. Plan ✅
- Add expected one-off or recurring transactions
- Look at the projections of how your expenses and savings evolve
3. Compare ✅
- See actual vs expected movements in the "Balance" section
- Adjust your expectation accordingly to take ownership over your finances
And here’s what it does NOT do:
- ❌ It doesn’t store or send any data to a server, everything is stored locally on the device (you can export/import data between devices if needed)
- ❌ It’s not connected to any real bank accounts and doesn’t require any sensitive personal data, so transactions are not added automatically
- ❌ Doesn’t auto-update investment values (it’s not built for traders)
✅ No sign-up
✅ No ads
✅ No tracking
The part I personally find most interesting, and which led me to publish it on the stores, is the budget and forecast feature.
If you spend 10 minutes inputting recurring expenses like subscriptions, taxes, insurance, and bills, you can see a projection of your expected savings at any future date.
I’ve been using my app for a few months now, and I thought I’d share it in case anyone’s curious to try it or provide some (constructive) feedback, which would be greatly appreciated.
Of course, the app is free, has no ads, and does not share any data (I want to emphasize that). The only external request it makes is a single API call to my AWS server to get currency exchange rates for converting balances to the main currency.
