Consumii
Empower your spending choice
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
AI-assisted receipt scanning, a redesigned Work Time card with privacy controls, hold-to-confirm for early purchases, and bigger Goal Tracker widgets.
Consumii helps you spend more mindfully. Track every purchase from the first idea to long-term reflection - and see what things really cost in hours of your life.
SEE THE REAL COST
Enter your hourly wage once, and Consumii shows how many hours of work each purchase costs. A price becomes something more real - and that changes how you decide.
TRACK EVERY PURCHASE FROM IDEA TO OUTCOME
Follow each item through its full journey: planned, purchased, sold, returned, disposed, or renounced. Add items in seconds from a product link or photo.
KNOW IF IT WAS WORTH IT
At 30, 90, 180, and 360 days after buying, Consumii checks in: are you still happy with it, and would you buy it again? Over time, you build a clearer picture of your best and worst spending decisions.
WANT OR NEED? BE HONEST.
Classify every item as a want or a need and see where your money goes by instinct versus intention.
BUDGETS, ANALYTICS, AND WIDGETS
Set monthly budgets overall or by category, explore clean charts and spending trends, and keep your progress visible with 15 Home Screen widgets.
IMPULSE LOGGING, RECEIPTS, AND SPOTLIGHT
Log impulse purchases, scan and attach receipts, and find items instantly with Spotlight search.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No servers. No tracking. No account required. Your data stays on your device, with optional iCloud sync in your private Apple account.
NO SUBSCRIPTION. EVER.
Consumii is free to use, and Consumii Pro is a one-time purchase that removes the 40-item limit. All features are included in the free tier.
more • AI Receipt Scanning: When marking an item as "Already Bought," Consumii can now scan a photo of your receipt and auto-fill the price, date, and shop.
• Work Time, Reworked: The "Work Time" callout is now a bold, emphasized card that uses your own configurable Work Hours per Day (My Profile). It has its own privacy toggle — hide just the work-time value so a visible price can't be used to reverse-calculate your income.
• Hold-to-Confirm: Marking an item bought before its Sleep Until date, or logging it before it's earned, now requires a deliberate hold-to-confirm instead of a single tap.
• Smarter Receipt Nudges: The reminder to attach a receipt now asks whether the item was actually received first, and "days in use" now correctly accounts for items still shipping.
• Goal Tracker Widget: New extra-large sizes, an "Always Full Color" toggle, and fixed legibility under Tinted/Clear Home Screen icons.
• Groups: Stats and widgets now refresh immediately after assigning or clearing a group member.
• Analytics Accuracy: Fixed several issues — overall budget utilization no longer inflates in the "All Time" view, the Extra Budget section now respects custom date ranges, spending figures always use your preferred currency instead of defaulting to EUR, and the Category Breakdown description matches what's actually shown.
• Price Alerts & Widgets: Checking an item's price manually now refreshes stats and widgets immediately, so price-drop alerts and widgets never show stale numbers.
2.4.1 Sep 29
• Item Groups: Organize your planned and purchased items into custom groups. Each group shows a progress card. Assign items with a long press from your purchase history, or pick them straight from the Add Item form.
• Wishlist Tracking: Adding a planned item now automatically records your impulse to buy it. When you purchase or renounce it, the record resolves itself.
• Price Alerts: Five bugs in the price alert system have been fixed. Baseline prices are now tracked more accurately and can no longer be set with an unknown currency.
• Spending Tab: Six logic bugs in the Dashboard Spending analytics are fixed. Sold items are now correctly excluded from chart totals to match the displayed budget figure.
2.4.0 Jun 27
• Price Alert Quiet Hours — Price drop notifications now respect your quiet hours (10 PM – 8 AM). Nightly price checks no longer wake you up.
• Invoice Backup — Scanned invoice and receipt pages are now included when you export your data. Restoring a backup brings your documents back too.
• Accessibility — Price history now works fully with VoiceOver: the comparison row announces snapshot count and expand/collapse state; trend badges speak "Price down 12%" instead of raw icon names.
2.3.3 May 15
• Price Alerts Redesigned — Set a pinned baseline price, tiered alert thresholds, and a target price. Consumii now tracks the historical low and notifies you when the price hits your goal.
• Price History — A full snapshot timeline of how an item's price has changed over time is now available right in the item detail view.

2.3.0 Apr 29

• Price Drop Alerts — Enable price monitoring per item in the Price History section of any planned item with a product URL. You'll get a notification the moment the price drops by 5% or more — completely opt-in, one item at a time.
• Share Extension fix — Sharing a product URL from Safari into Consumii now works reliably on every use, not just the first time.
• Bug fixes and performance improvements.
2.2.2 Apr 28
• Favourites — Mark any planned item as a favourite by tapping the heart in the item's detail view. With the stats card hidden, a full-width hero card showcases your top wish; multiple favourites cycle automatically every six seconds and can be swiped manually. Tap the card to open the item.
• Redesigned Analytics — "Your Brief" gives you a calm, focused picture with three streamlined cards. Weekly and Monthly summaries now share the same zen layout — key numbers up front, narrative below, no visual clutter.

• Daily Expense Tracker — Quickly log recurring purchases like coffee, groceries, or fuel with the new Daily Expense entry. They stay out of your main list but appear in a dedicated Analytics card, grouped by name and searchable.
• No Purchase Challenge — The ultimate challenge: zero purchases across every category. Double the points (up to 1,000 pts for a full year) and a dedicated "Extreme" difficulty rating.
• Revamped Analytics — New Spending Hero card shows your budget at a glance. A narrative summary tells the month-over-month story. Impulse streaks now track five achievement levels from Starter to Legend, with a weekly progress ring.
• Enhanced Data Export — The JSON export now covers 55 fields including financing history, savings milestones, delivery tracking, refunds, and decision emotions. A complete offline backup, no iCloud needed.
• Gave In redesign — When you buy a planned item early, a new guided sheet lets you pick from 10 reasons — the same mindful flow as Renounce, applied to early purchases.
• URL Metadata Refresh — A new Refresh button in the edit view re-fetches name, price, image, and category for any item that was imported without product details.
• iCloud Sync improvements — Fixed missing impulse record types, stale data after app suspension, and added clearer account status messages.

• Smarter data wipe — "Delete All My Data" now removes everything from both your device and iCloud in one step. No toggle needed.

• Financing Plan — model a financing scenario before you commit: set a down payment, APR, and loan term to see your exact monthly payment and true total cost.
• Smarter Task Suggestions — task chips are now category-aware. Electronics get Idealo and Geizhals comparison links; travel items get booking-site checks; and more.
• Reality Check — a one-tap task to see if you already own or are tracking something similar before adding another item.
