Expenses: Spending Tracker is a Mac App Store finance app by Blue Comet Labs for logging income and spending manually—without linking bank accounts or creating a vendor account.
What it does on Mac
You work in sheets (personal budgets, trips, or shared household lists), add expenses and income in any supported currency, assign categories and merchants, and review Stats and Trends over time. iCloud keeps sheets in sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro; you can invite others to collaborate on a shared sheet. Receipt capture uses on-device scanning and autofill to reduce typing. Data stays on your device or in your iCloud; the developer states the app collects no personal data and requires no sign-up.
Typical workflow
Most Mac users open a sheet, log transactions as they happen (or batch them weekly), then use filters and charts to see category or merchant breakdowns. CSV import and export help migration from spreadsheets or other trackers. Widgets, Shortcuts, Dark Mode, VoiceOver, and keyboard shortcuts support quick entry on desktop. The base app is free; Expenses Pro unlocks advanced capabilities via in-app purchase (Lifetime $39.99, Monthly $1.99, or Yearly $14.99 on the US App Store—regional prices may differ). Setapp also distributes Expenses as an alternative to direct purchase.
Version 4.0.9
Build 4.0.9 adds global search across your expense data—a headline addition for Mac users with large sheet histories. The update also carries forward 4.0.x improvements: category suggestions, filters by image, recurrence, and currency, plus clearer views for upcoming, recurring, and pending items. Requires macOS 13.0 or later.
