Simple Spend Tracker
The simplest way to manage your money. No bank accounts to link, no spreadsheets, no learning curve. Just you and your budget.
Simple Spend Tracker is built around the envelope budgeting method, one of the most proven personal finance strategies around. Set a starting amount for anything you want to track, log your spending as you go, and always know exactly what's left.
How it works
Set a starting balance for anything: groceries, rent, a vacation, a night out. Add expenses and income as they happen and your balance updates instantly, with your running balance shown after every transaction. Simple, manual, and completely in your control.
Log spending in seconds
• Home Screen widget: see your balance at a glance, then tap Expense or Income to add one
• Siri and Shortcuts: say "Log an expense in SimpleSpend", or put it on your Action button
• Edit any transaction's amount, date or note, or swipe to delete
Your budgets, everywhere
Create a free account and your budgets stay in sync on your iPhone, iPad and the web. Choose a primary budget to open first, and switch between budgets in a tap.
