Overview

What it is

Flow is a free and open source expense tracker that focuses on privacy, and simplicity. Available on Android, iOS, and more!

Intent

I need it when

Automate expense logging through receipt scanning and mobile shortcuts

Flow integrates with Eny for receipt parsing and iOS Shortcuts for automation, allowing users to log transactions hands-free. Users can also set up recurring transactions for subscriptions, salaries, and bills on a schedule.

Safely back up financial records and migrate data between devices

Flow provides manual and automatic backups with iCloud support on iOS. Users can export all accounts, transactions, and attachments as JSON/ZIP for recovery or import to another device, with precaution backups created before imports.

Track personal expenses offline while maintaining full control over financial data

Flow is a free, offline-first expense tracker that stores all data locally on the user's device. Users control where their data goes and can export it anytime as JSON, ZIP, or CSV, ensuring complete privacy and data ownership without reliance on cloud servers.

Manage finances across multiple currencies and accounts

Flow supports multiple currencies with automatic exchange rate conversion and allows unlimited accounts. Users can generate reports and summaries across accounts with different currencies, all displayed in their primary currency, plus cross-currency transfers are available.

Access a simple, privacy-focused expense tracker without ads or subscriptions

Flow is completely free, open-source, and ad-free with no premium tiers or feature limitations. All functionality is available to every user, and the codebase is publicly available on GitHub for transparency and community contribution.
