Account Tracker is a powerful personal finance app that helps you track spending and monitor balances across multiple accounts. Its clean, intuitive user interface, and features such as alerts, bill reminders, budgets, reports and full multi-currency support, make it easy to take control of your finances.
This FREE version requires a subscription, either quarterly or yearly. When you sign up, the first month is free, to give you a chance to try the app before being charged. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time by going to your account settings on the AppStore. If you prefer a subscription-free alternative, Account Tracker Pro gives you the same content, plus basic support for Apple Watch.
Also check out Account Tracker for Mac, now available on the Mac App Store. It requires Account Tracker version 6 or above (to sync over iCloud or Dropbox), and macOS Sierra (10.12) or above.
Account Tracker is praised for its simplicity, intuitive data entry, and strong reporting that supports tax prep. Users frequently highlight reliable cross-device syncing via Dropbox across Apple devices and solid multi-currency support. The app offers useful customization (categories, splits), easy export/print options, and responsive developer support with ongoing updates. Occasional notes mention sync issues with Dropbox, causing slow or interrupted syncing for a minority of users. Overall, it’s viewed as a dependable, no-nonsense finance tracker that balances features with ease of use, though users relying on perfect cloud sync should watch that area.

I am not an accountant….at all. I was married to one however but he went blind and I had to start doing the accounting…to the penny. I continue to do that and this app is the best one I’ve used. It is simple to use, it allows me to know in advance where my bank balances are and that’s a great bonus for me. Thanks for being so proactive about support!

The instructions weren’t helpful and no way to contact support.

I reviewed this app in 2017 and again in 2023, but since I have now been using it continuously since Jan 2013 (nearly 12 years) I feel obligated to the developer to submit another glowing review. It is the perfect finance app for me. I enter my expenses and income daily. It is quite simple and intuitive. It generates just enough reports to work for me. I use it at year's end to gather together all the information I'll need for my CPA to prepare my tax returns. On rare occasions, especially when I first began using the app, I contacted the developer for support and he was very accommodating and responsive. I can't say enough good about this app and how practical and valuable it has been to me over these past nearly 12 years.
