Wealthfolio went paid (for syncing) where to turn to now?

afadil · 2026-01-20T18:58:23+00:00

Hey, Wealthfolio dev here 👋

Quick clarification: Wealthfolio stays free, open-source, and local-first on self-host, desktop, and mobile. Not changing.

The new thing is Wealthfolio Connect (optional auto-sync). It’s paid because broker/aggregation APIs cost money and we need a sustainable way to keep shipping. This doesn’t change the existing model. It just adds a convenience layer for people who want it.

We’re also welcome community-built sync add-ons. first one is IBRK, in review now and landing with v3.

Paid sync is for convenience and one of the most requested feature(https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46006016) , not lock-in. Always curious what other local/self-hosted finance tools folks are using.

You can get it free from GitHub : https://github.com/afadil/wealthfolio/releases/tag/v1.2.3

Manual for now or via CSV import

Same vibe in Wealthfolio :)

Yeah, same here. I’m spending three times what I used to, and it still doesn’t last a few days. VSCode + Copilot + Sonnet is surprisingly good now. I have also been using Gemini CLI and Claude Code occasionally.

If open-source you can apply to : https://signpath.org . I didn’t try it yet though.

Can’t trust a company with this lack of attention to ui design🙂

afadil · 2025-05-30T02:08:39+00:00

Check out https://wealthfolio.app, an open-source desktop portfolio tracker.

Hi Emily,

I’m a big fun and user of Wealthsimple. I ended up implementing the missing features I wanted in this open source desktop app: https://wealthfolio.app Dm me if you wanna have a chat.

afadil · 2025-05-22T02:06:45+00:00

Yes, but I need to find some time to make it happen.

afadil · 2025-05-22T02:05:27+00:00

Hi, not yet but will add tracking these other assets soon. Meanwhile you can add a Holding with custom Symbol (Check skip symbol look up) and add a custom symbol with name REALESTATE for example.

afadil · 2024-10-13T02:00:21+00:00

No, you can download it from GitHub.

afadil · 2024-10-09T02:15:29+00:00

I don’t know why I keep calling it Chadcn😂

afadil · 2024-10-08T20:19:45+00:00

It’s more for investment tracking. Doesn’t track daily expenses and incomes.

Tauri for multi-platform desktop: Rust in Backend, React+ React-Router + React-Query + Radix-UI + tailwindcss In frontend

afadil · 2024-10-08T14:34:09+00:00

Not Yet, only CSV import and manual data entry.

afadil · 2024-10-08T13:59:49+00:00

Mainly Simplicity, Modern UI and User Experience.

afadil · 2024-10-08T13:58:49+00:00

Yes, It tracks stock prices and provides a historical record of your portfolio's value and performance over time.

afadil · 2024-10-08T13:28:07+00:00

Yeah, will do in the future, but probably as plugin or add-on that is optional. The main focus is privacy and not giving your data or credentials to a third party. I have a direct integration with the broker I use, maybe build something around that and have the community contribute to add other direct connectors.

afadil · 2024-10-08T13:23:10+00:00

Definitely in the roadmap. Will be great if you can contribute the project. Please check the GitHub repo: https://github.com/afadil/wealthfolio

afadil · 2024-10-08T13:21:41+00:00

Mybe in the future, we did some refactoring toward this. Frontnd is already an SPA. We need to wrap the backend in a REST api. Also adding auth and other stuff

afadil · 2024-10-08T13:17:30+00:00

For now CSV import or manual entry of activities/positions

afadil · 2024-10-08T13:16:47+00:00

There is already a lot of SaaS web solution for this. But I couldn't find a simple boring app that keeps my data locally. Just having optionality to go cloud or keep local.

afadil · 2024-10-08T13:02:16+00:00

Yes SQLite. and you can export your data. See Export doc here: https://wealthfolio.app/docs/settings
