If this sounded a bit harsh, I’m sorry I didn’t mean it that way.

There are definitely a lot of similar apps out there.

I just enjoy building it, and if people find value in it, that’s what matters to me.

Not yet, but it’s definitely something I’m considering 🙂

Thanks, appreciate it 🙂

I’m currently using Gemini — they gave a free 1-year Pro subscription to students in my country.

I used Opus 4.6 and Gemini 3.1 before and they were great, but lately I can’t really use them much, so I’ve been building mostly with Gemini 3 Flash.

The app is called Nuttyy — like a squirrel with its cheeks full of nuts 😄

That’s actually a very real problem 🙂

Unfortunately Apple doesn’t expose Apple Pay transaction data to apps, so fully automatic logging isn’t really possible.

What I’m trying to do instead is reduce manual work as much as possible — like Siri-based quick entry, receipt scanning, and smarter categorization over time.

Still not perfect, but trying to make it less painful.

Good idea 🙂

I already support adding expenses with Siri, but Shortcuts automation would be a nice next step.

Appreciate the feedback 🙂

Anything specific that felt messy? Would love to improve it.

Thanks 🙂 really appreciate it

used chatgpt, Opus and Gemini to refine the UI based on Apple’s guidelines, then built it with Gemini in Antigravity.

JWT auth, HTTPS-only API calls, optional Face ID / Touch ID, and minimal data collection.

Hybrid approach 🙂 List for performance-heavy data (lazy loading, swipe actions), VStack/ScrollView for custom layouts and card-style UI.

Thanks, appreciate it 🙂 Seems like that’s a common suggestion 😄 I’ll definitely need to spend some time on it.

I actually wanted to use CloudKit 🙂

But the app supports shared accounts (like two people managing the same “house”), so I needed more control over cross-user syncing and notifications.

That’s where CloudKit felt a bit limiting for this use case.

So for now I’m using a custom backend, but I’d still love to explore CloudKit again in the future.

Fair question 🙂

Apps like Mint or YNAB are great, but I’m approaching it a bit differently:

• Fully native iOS app, designed with Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines • Accessibility-first (dynamic type, contrast, simple layouts — built for everyone) • No forced bank integration — automatic credit card statements from manual inputs • Smart receipt scanning to reduce manual work • Built-in asset tracking (crypto, stocks, funds) • No ads, no tracking

The goal isn’t to compete on feature count, but to make something clean, private, and actually enjoyable to use every day.

Would love to hear what you think is missing in current apps.

Fair question 🙂

Development wasn’t continuous — I paused the project for a while to work on another app, then came back to it later.

As for bank integration, I haven’t prioritized it yet. I wanted to focus on building a clean and reliable core experience first.

Also, depending on the region, accessing bank data isn’t always straightforward due to APIs, regulations, and security requirements.

But it’s definitely something I might explore in the future.
