it’s technically possible, as you can download export and import the SQLite database as you like, but my vision for the app is that logging each expense individually (with the annoyance that it entails) is one of the core points. There are a lot of apps right now that will be able to parse the data from your bank (even connect to it) and give you beautiful stats about your expenses, but my experience with those is that you see the graphs, think 2 minutes about them and forget instantly.

I wanted to make something totally different, with the hopes that it can make you a bit more conscious about your spending and habits.

It’s a good point. Going over each item is what works for us. But I still extract from the bank and into a spreadsheet so we have full control. The only thing spreadsheets lack is double entry.

Fair points, that does make sense. Might be something to cover in a FAQ?

definitely, thanks for the idea!
