Private by design

Good to know

  • Amounts are in Indian rupees only.
  • Text reading works best on clear, printed bills. Check the amount, date and merchant before saving.
  • English and Devanagari text are read by the phone. Other Indian scripts are not, though English text and numbers on the same bill are.
  • Bill photos and bill reminders are not included in the backup file.
  • There is no cloud sync. If you lose your phone and have no backup file, the data is gone.
  • MySpend does not connect to banks. Add transactions yourself, import a CSV, or paste or share bank messages.
