Spending TrackerSpending Tracker logs an expense in a few taps and takes an optional budget for the week, month or year, with whatever is left carried over. The summary shows the main areas of spending, and you can step back through earlier periods.
Spend PalSpend Pal takes one line — type tacos 11.40, press enter — and files the amount and category onto today's page, drawn like a paper notebook. One monthly number, one bar. No account, and nobody asks for your bank.
DimeDime is free with no paywall and no ads, built by a solo student developer. Spending broken down over any period, budgets per category, recurring expenses, and a reminder to write things in.
Daily Budget OriginalDaily Budget Original works out a daily budget from what is left for the month, and never connects to a bank account — the data stays on the device. The core features are free; more categories, encryption and graphs are paid.
