Spending Review

Available on the App Store

How much
are you
spending?

The grocery total you keep with one hand, with the trolley in the other. Tap the price on the keypad or point at the price tag: the total goes up at once and the bar tells you how much budget is left. At the till you already know what you will pay.

Coming to Android.

Spending Review: your grocery total and budget, while you shop.

What it looks like

"How much will it be at the till?"

In the aisles you add up prices by eye, and at the till the total is always higher than you thought. Spending Review keeps count while you fill the trolley, so you decide before, not after.

A till-style keypad

Always on screen: 2 4 9 makes 2.49, just like at the till, no decimal point. × for quantity, − for a discount or a voucher, + to add.

Point at the price tag

Name, price to pay, crossed-out price and price per kg, read from the shelf tag. Nothing goes in by itself: you check and tap Add.

The budget always in sight

The big total at the top goes up with every item, and the bar below tells you how much is left of the budget you set.

What's inside

Everything you need to reach the till already knowing the total, and nothing else.

Offers, already worked out

3 for 2, 2 for 1, −30%, second one half price: the offer on the tag goes into the total already done. If there's a loyalty card price and a normal one, you choose with a tap. From a photo you already took, too.

Fruit and veg by weight

Type the weight after a per-kg price, or point at the scale label: weight, price per kg and total, no maths.

Fix it with a tap

Tap a line to fix it, swipe it to remove it. Handwritten tags can't be read: for those there's the keypad.

Your shopping history

Close each trip with the shop and the date, and find the last 5 always at hand. With Pro, all of them: the others are already on your phone.

Where the money goes

With Pro, statistics by month and by shop: average spend, budget overruns and a budget for the whole month.

Spreadsheet and backup

With Pro, every item of every trip in a CSV, and a backup of your history, to keep or to move to a new phone.

Free, then Pro if you need it

In the free version price tags are read without limits. Pro is a single purchase, no subscription, no renewal; if you change phone you restore it from the store, with the same account.

Your data stays yours

Spending Review has no account, asks for no sign-up and collects no usage statistics. Your trips and history live in your phone's storage and are not sent anywhere. The camera opens only when you point it at a price tag or a scale label, and the reading happens on the phone: the photo never reaches us or anyone else, it is deleted as soon as it is read, and the text read is not saved. Only the name and price you confirm are kept. The only thing that goes through the store is the purchase check.
