Every account, every transfer, no double counting.

TrackExpenses tracks cash, bank, card, savings, investment and loan accounts, records transfers between them, and shows assets, liabilities and a total that always reconcile. Recurring rules add your salary, rent and subscriptions on schedule.

Transfers are not spending

Withdrawing cash, moving money to savings or paying off a credit card moves money between places you own. TrackExpenses records those as transfers, so the lunch you later buy with that cash is counted once. Bank SMS imports recognize ATM withdrawals, cash deposits and card bill payments and file them as transfers when both accounts are clear.

Credit cards

A card account carries what you owe as a liability. Purchases on the card are expenses; the monthly payment is a transfer from your bank to the card. Read the credit card guide for the full method.

Recurring transactions

More → Recurring creates rules every day, week, month or year — or every N of them, such as every 2 weeks. Each occurrence is created once, even when two of your devices sync.

Safe with history

An account with history is archived rather than deleted, so past balances still add up. A deleted transaction can be undone for a few seconds, everywhere in the app.

Free or Pro

Free includes 3 accounts and 3 recurring rules. Pro makes both unlimited.

Questions

How do I record paying my credit card bill?

Record it as a transfer from your bank account to the card account, not as an expense. The purchases on the card were already your spending.

Can I have more than three accounts?

Free covers three accounts, for example cash, bank and one card. Pro allows unlimited accounts.

Your money, easier to follow.
