Free edition of the iXpenseIt expense tracker, with receipt photos, budgets and spending reports.
Opens the official store page
The free edition of iXpenseIt covers the same ground as the Pro version from FYI Mobileware: a daily expense log with monthly budgets, for personal spending or business costs that need to be claimed back. Entries take a few taps and can carry a photo of the receipt. The reporting is the main draw. Trend bar charts track expenses and cash flow, a quick overview compares today's spending with the daily average, and monthly summaries and graphical reports can be exported to Excel or PDF. Categories, budgets and icons are editable, there is support for VAT and GST, mileage and multiple currencies, and bill reminders warn before due dates. Touch ID locks the app and backups are supported. Multi-device sync for up to five devices is a paid subscription. The listing doesn't spell out what else separates the free version from Pro.
Same tracker, no price tag. The free iXpenseIt from FYI Mobileware mirrors the Pro edition: a daily log of spending with a monthly budget, for household costs or business expenses to be claimed back. Each entry needs a few taps and can hold a receipt photo.
Reporting is the strength: bar charts for expenses and cash flow, today's spending set against the daily average, and monthly summaries that export to PDF or Excel. Categories, budgets and icons are editable, VAT, GST, mileage and currencies are handled, and bill reminders warn ahead of due dates. Touch ID and backups are in; syncing five devices costs a subscription.
Day to day it is identical to Pro: tap in each purchase, snap the receipt when it matters, glance at the chart to see where the month stands. Bill reminders surface a few days before a due date.
The open question is where the free version stops. The listing describes the same feature list as Pro and doesn't say what is withheld, so the first month doubles as discovery of whether a limit on entries, reports or exports appears. For a single person on one phone who finds no wall, there may be no reason to pay for Pro at all.
Mostly as a trial of the Pro app without spending $4.99, or as a budget tracker for someone who doesn't want to pay anything. Excel export with receipts remains the specific draw for people who file expenses. The rating base is small at 397 reviews, though the 4.7 score matches the paid edition, which suggests the two share a code base and a reputation.
Visually this will be the Pro app: entry forms, category icons and bar chart reports across the five screenshots. The design reflects a product that has been around a long time and prioritises getting numbers in and reports out over a fashionable look. Nothing in the listing suggests the free edition looks any different.
Version 11.3.0, one patch behind the Pro edition's 11.3.1, confirms the two are updated together by FYI Mobileware, Inc. Only 397 ratings is a thin base for judging reliability, though the 4.7 score is good. Being the free front door for a paid app usually means it gets the same attention. App Store only on this page.
Trying before buying Pro
The same ledger and reports, free, so you can see whether the workflow fits.
Zero-cost expense logs
Receipt photos and monthly budgets without paying anything up front.
Spreadsheet-minded savers
Excel export suits people who do their real analysis elsewhere.
Rated 4+ and free. The listing doesn't say what separates this from the $4.99 Pro edition, so a feature or entry limit may appear in use. Syncing across as many as five devices is a paid add-on. Ads aren't mentioned, and a free edition of a paid app may carry them.
No account is needed on a single device. Touch ID locking and backups are supported. It works offline except for sync.
Our take
Start here if you are curious about iXpenseIt; it costs nothing and reveals whether the format suits you. If you hit a limit and like the app, the Pro price is small. Skip it entirely if you want bank connections, automatic categorisation or a shared household budget, none of which either edition offers.
