About Money Minder
MoneyMinder is a budgeting app that lets you log expenses the way that suits you: type a message such as coffee 4 dollars, speak it, scan a printed or digital receipt, or enter it manually. Spending is sorted into categories automatically and summarized by day and month.
You can create category budgets for food, travel, shopping and bills and compare actual spending against your plan, set up recurring transactions such as rent and subscriptions once, and create shared spaces so a partner, family member or roommate can add expenses without a separate spreadsheet.
The listing stresses privacy: no SMS or contacts permission is required, your data is not resold, you can export or delete your data, and device security can protect access. Manual tracking, budgets, reports and shared spaces cost nothing, with a premium tier on top.
