simplebanking shows your bank balance right in your Mac menu bar! Built for Germany and the EU. It connects to nearly all banks in Germany plus a growing list of EU banks across 8 countries (Austria, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, UK), secured by YAXI's regulated Open Banking. PayPal supported too. ✨ Outstanding: MoneyMood balance colors, spending heatmap, a live menu bar widget, full theme support, and open source (MIT licensed) on GitHub

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Maik, and I built simplebanking because I was tired of constantly opening banking apps just to check my balance. **The Problem:** I work in the banking industry (Germany), and even I find modern banking apps annoying. Want to check your balance? Open app → Face ID → wait → navigate → finally see number. Repeat 5x/day. **The Solution:** A native Mac app that lives in your menu bar. One glance, you know your balance. Click for details. Search transactions. See subscriptions. Check financial health. **Why PSD2 / Openbanking?** It's read-only access mandated by EU banking law. No write permissions, no transfers, just viewing. Completely safe. **Why Open Source?** Banking tools should be transparent. You can audit every line of code, build it yourself, or fork it. No tracking, no data collection. **Built with AI:** I used Vibecoding (AI-assisted development) to build this in a few weeks. The entire process was documented, and I learned a ton about SwiftUI, PSD2, and menu bar apps. For Balance I used the only really privacy-focused open banking provider, Yaxi (https://yaxi.tech) Try it, break it, fork it, improve it. I'm here all day to answer questions!

Wouldn't that have privacy risk? I would hate to see my bank balance broadcasted in screen shares

@4n1rudh4 It hides automatically, and there is a setting that shows the account balance as a flyout when you click ッ
