Free Expense Tracker
A free expense tracker that isn't paid for with ads or your data
Plenty of free apps pay for themselves with ads or by selling what they learn about you. Balance does neither: there are no ads, no trackers and no data selling.
Download it free and the everyday essentials are yours to keep using: tracking, automatic capture, bills, accounts and CSV export.

Balance - Expense Tracker by Clarzen on Google Play
What you can use for free
- Unlimited expense and income tracking
- Automatic capture from bank SMS and payment notifications (Android, optional)
- Bill, EMI and subscription reminders
- Unlimited accounts, cards and wallets, plus net worth
- A monthly budget and spending analytics
- Receipt scanning to try, and one-tap CSV export
How 'free' apps usually make money — and how Balance doesn't
Free finance apps typically monetize by showing ads or selling anonymized spending data. Both quietly work against you: ads push spending, and data sales turn your habits into someone else's product.
Balance avoids both. No ad SDKs, no trackers, no data brokering. That keeps the incentives aligned with helping you spend less, not with keeping you scrolling.
Free isn't a trial
There's no countdown. Tracking, automatic capture, bills, accounts and export keep working for as long as you use Balance, and your data is always yours to export or delete.
What works without subscribing
- Unlimited expense tracking across unlimited accounts
- Automatic capture from bank SMS and payment notifications on Android
- Bill, EMI and subscription reminders
- A monthly budget, net worth and CSV export
Subscriptions you should watch — inside the app
Ironically, the subscriptions worth worrying about are the ones you've forgotten. Balance's subscription tracker flags recurring charges and reminds you before they renew, so you can cancel what you don't use.
