Before you make it yours.
A simple way to get started
- Try the free demo and explore the screens you will use most.
- Open the matching Etsy listing to confirm the current version, compatibility and what is included.
- After purchase, follow the supplied setup instructions. Start with a small set of your own records and review the results.
Good to know
- Not financial or tax advice. The app helps you keep your numbers in order; it does not file anything. Check with a tax professional for your own situation.
- It does not connect to your bank; you type your own numbers.
- Clearing your browser data can erase your entries, so download a backup in Settings now and then.
- Keep a backup of your entries before clearing browser data or changing devices. The demo and purchased app are separate; review the purchase instructions before entering your own information.
