Kakeibo – Household Budget
Simple daily expense tracker
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Kakeibo is the Japanese art of keeping a household ledger: write down what you spend, see where it goes, and stay mindful of your money. This app brings that calm, paper-like routine to your phone — no account, no cloud, no clutter.
FAST ENTRY
• Calculator-style keypad — type an amount and save in seconds
• Split one receipt into line items; the remainder is calculated automatically
• Notes and store names on every entry
CLEAR OVERVIEW
• Calendar view shows each day's entries at a glance
• Monthly summary with income, expenses and balance
• Spending by category, with drill-down into subcategories
YOUR CATEGORIES
• Preset categories in your language, with emoji icons
• Add, rename, reorder and archive; subcategories supported (e.g. Dining out under Food)
YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
• Everything is stored on your device — nothing is sent to a server
• Automatic on-device backups, JSON export (optional passphrase encryption) and CSV export
• Restore your data anytime
AND MORE
• 16 currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, KRW and more) with decimal amounts
• 9 languages

Note: to keep your history consistent, the currency can't be changed after your first entry — pick it once in Settings.
