Personal Ledger keeps your monthly cashflow honest. Set a plan for what should come in and go out each month, then verify it against what actually happens.
Personal Ledger keeps your monthly cashflow honest. Set a plan for what should come in and go out each month, then verify it against what actually happens — the way you would in a spreadsheet, without the spreadsheet work.
PLAN VS. ACTUAL
• Organize income, living expenses, liabilities, and investments the way you think about them
• See at a glance which categories are on plan, ahead, or overspent
• Plan health is pro-rated by day of month, so you don't get false alarms on the 3rd
FAST LOGGING
• Add a transaction in seconds
• Log expenses straight from bank SMS notifications with a Shortcuts automation — parsed on your device
BRING YOUR SPREADSHEET
• Import your existing cashflow plan from an Excel workbook (.xlsx)
• Your categories, planned amounts, and payment sources come across automatically
THE FULL PICTURE
• Monthly cashflow: active income minus expenses, with passive income tracked separately
• Balance sheet with assets, liabilities, and net worth
• Cashflow per payment source, so you know which account is bleeding
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• All data stays on your iPhone — no account, no cloud, no tracking
• No ads, no analytics, no third-party SDKs phoning home
Built for people who already run their money on a spreadsheet and want the discipline without the drudgery.

Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
NEW: THE APP NOW SPEAKS ARABIC
The entire app: every screen, every label, right-to-left throughout, is now available in Arabic, the planning tools included: forecast, debt payoff and savings goals. If your iPhone is set to Arabic the app follows automatically; everyone else stays in English. You can also choose the language yourself in Settings › Appearance › Language, and the switch applies immediately, with no restart.
Your data is yours in any language. Category names you typed or imported are never translated, and changing language never touches your numbers.
NEW: APP CUSTOM CATEGORISATION AND LEARNING
Pro users will now benefit from a new "Categorisations rules" section in the Settings Tab, where they can teach the app how to handle vendors and and specific transactions in categories they have created.
In addition, the app learns from manual recategorisations from the transactions tab, making smarter the more the user uses it.
BUG FIXES
- The Monthly Cash Flow figure no longer shows green when your month is negative
- "Erase all data" now erases all of it. Savings goals and recurring rules were being left behind
- The text-message setup walkthrough now ends with a button that opens Shortcuts
- The summary at the foot of the Plan tab used to show only what you had planned, three figures with nothing to check them against
