Just say what you spent
Speak it, scan it, or type it. SimplifyPocket turns everyday spending into tracked transactions and real-time budgets. No bank logins, no spreadsheet.
Add a transaction with your voice
Tap the mic and say what you spent. Speech recognition turns it into words, then AI pulls out the amount, merchant, category, and date. You review and save.
- Speak naturally: “twelve dollars at the coffee shop yesterday”
- Several transactions in one go
- Set a budget by voice too: “set my groceries budget to 300”
- Add a note as you go: “note: mom’s birthday”
- Works in all 5 app languages
- On iPhone, audio never leaves your phone
- Works with Siri on iPhone: log, ask what’s left, add to a goal
Just say “Hey Pocket”
Switch on the wake word and skip the tap entirely. Say “Hey Pocket,” then your command. Pocket logs the spend, opens the screen, or answers the question.
- “Hey Pocket, twelve on coffee”
- “Hey Pocket, open my budgets”
- “Hey Pocket, how much is left for dining?”
- Opt-in, and only listens while the app is open
Scan receipts, bills and statements
One scanner for any document. Pocket works out what it is: a receipt becomes an expense, a bill becomes an upcoming payment, and a bank screenshot or statement becomes a list of transactions. You review everything before it’s saved.
- Camera, photos or a PDF: up to 10 images or a 20-page PDF
- Receipts, bills, bank screenshots, statements and payslips
- Skips anything you already logged
- Read once, never stored, deleted from your phone after
- Works in all 5 app languages
Bills and paychecks add themselves
Set rent, subscriptions or a paycheck to repeat, by voice or with Repeats. Each one is added on the day, and you get a notification you can undo or edit.
- Say “every month” or pick Repeats
- Weekly, every 2 weeks, monthly, yearly or once
- Added at 7am, with Undo or Edit
- Skip one, or pause and resume any time
Start from what you earn
Log paychecks, refunds and any other money in. Left to spend takes your income, subtracts what you’ve spent and sets aside the bills still to come.
- A one-off income or a scheduled paycheck
- Income − spent − still scheduled
- Tap the number to see the math
- Budgets still count expenses only
Ask Pocket about your money
A built-in money assistant that answers from your real spending, income and budgets, and draws a chart when it helps. Ask whether you can afford something, where your money went, or how last month went.
- “Where did my money go?” comes with a chart
- “How did September go?” gets a monthly report
- Share any chart or report as an image
- Ask in any of the 5 app languages
- Explains and suggests, never invents numbers
Budgets that update as you spend
Set a limit for each category. Every transaction you add updates it instantly, with a clear pace so you always know whether you are on track, spending fast, or over.
- A spending limit per category
- Updates the moment you save
- A clear pace: on track, spending fast, or over
- A quiet alert at a threshold you choose
- Put Home in the order you want
Save for something, by voice
Make a goal with a name, an amount and, if you like, a date. Add money by tap or by voice, or set an amount for every payday. Money in a goal comes out of Left to spend, so it doesn’t get spent by accident.
- Add money every payday
- Say “put 50 toward Japan”
- Pay with goal money
- Shared with your household
Budgets that reset on your payday
Most budgeting apps reset on the 1st. Most people don’t get paid on the 1st. Pick any start day and your budgets reset when money actually arrives.
- Any start day for your cycle
- Resets on payday, not the 1st
- See what’s left for the current period
- Set once, works every cycle
Share it with your partner
Budgeting works better when you’re both looking at the same numbers. Invite your partner and share one space: the same transactions and budgets, in sync for both of you.
- Invite your partner by email
- Shared transactions and budgets, kept in sync
- Add by voice, scan, or type, together
- One subscription covers you both
Type it, or add a few at once
Voice and scanning are optional. Add a single transaction by typing it, or catch up on several at once, each with its own date, category and merchant.
- Add one transaction by typing
- Add many at once, each with its own date
- Or type it out any way you like; Pocket finds each one
- Uses your own categories and merchants
Built differently
What we leave out matters as much as what we put in.
No bank connection
You never hand over banking credentials or a long-lived access token.
Voice-first
Logging takes seconds, so the habit actually sticks.
No clutter
No dashboards to decode, no features that exist only for a product page.
