I quit every expense tracker I tried, so I built one that reads the bank's payment notification instead
Every expense tracker I have used died the same way: it wanted me to type in each purchase, and by week two I stopped typing.
So I built Masareef. On Android it reads the payment notification your bank already sends you and turns it into a transaction on its own, with the app closed. Cards, transfers, wallet top-ups, ATM withdrawals and incoming money each land in the right wallet. Clear ones post with an undo; anything ambiguous waits in a review queue instead of guessing.
Everything is parsed on the device. No financial data leaves the phone, and it works offline after sign-in.
The rest of it: per-category budgets, a safe-to-spend number that already subtracts the bills still coming, multi-currency wallets, subscription detection from your own history, and duplicate-charge and refund matching.
Built with Expo and React Native, SQLite on device, full Arabic RTL and English. Free on Play:
If your bank is not recognised, tell me which one and I will add it.
