About Pockito

We built the money app we couldn't find.

Pockito started at home, with our own bills, budgets and receipts spread across several apps. Since 2025 we have turned it into one app that tracks, plans and explains your money, on iPhone and Android, in 24 languages.

54 Banks and wallets built in, in 14 countries

Where it started

Before anyone else,Pockito had to work for us.

We were trying to keep our own household's money in order. We wanted to see where it went and how much we could spend today, and no app we tried could show us both. Each one did one or two things well, so the budget lived in one app, the bills in another and the rest in our heads.

The apps didn't make it easier either. Crowded screens, settings we couldn't change, numbers with no explanation and a separate subscription for each one. Keeping track of our money had turned into a chore that was costing us money.

So in 2025 we stopped looking and started making our own. We wanted an app we could set up once that would then log our spending by itself, from bank texts, Apple Pay and payment alerts. For anything else, we wanted to say it in our own accent, scan whatever we had, from a receipt or a bill to a transfer slip, a screenshot or a handwritten note, and ask a chat assistant that knows our numbers whenever a question came up.

It had to keep the whole home in view, the way we run it: subscriptions and bills with a reminder before each one renews, what's safe to spend today, budgets, gold and every currency we hold, with insights that explain each number in plain words. It had to keep our records safe, with a lock, a backup and a way to bring our history over from the apps we were leaving. And it had to cost less than all of those apps and feel good to open.

What we couldn't find

  • Everything in one app Tracking, bills, budgets, gold and insights, together.
  • Room to do it your way Your periods, your currencies, your way of logging.
  • Screens that make it easier Plain words and a clear answer each time you open it.
  • One subscription, not several One app in place of the stack you used to pay for.

How we built it

Research first, then one release after another.

Since 2025 we have studied the market, designed the app and shipped 27 releases. Most of them began as a message from someone using Pockito.

  1. 2025

    1. Research

      Studying the market

      We studied the money apps people already use, read what their users kept asking for and mapped what the market was missing.

    2. Requirements and design

      Designing what a home needs

      We wrote down what a home actually needs, from bank texts to gold and bills, and designed the screens before building them.

    3. Building

      Building it on your phone first

      We built Pockito to work on your phone first, so your records are there before they sync anywhere.

Release notes

27 updates since January. Most began as a message.

We read every review and every WhatsApp message. This is what changed because of them, in the order it shipped.

  • 27 releases
  • 68 fixes in 1.4.0
  • 24 languages
  1. 1.0

    First version on the App Store

    The starting point. Twenty-six updates followed.

  2. 1.1.2

    18 widgets and Siri

    Budget, bills and spending on the Home Screen, Lock Screen and Control Center, and expenses logged by voice through Siri.

  3. 1.1.4

    Voice, rewritten

    The voice engine was rebuilt from scratch, so messy, real-world speech turns into the right entry.

  4. 1.1.5

    The budget follows your pay

    Pick a monthly or weekly income and the budget period follows it. The timer on the subscription screen is gone.

  5. 1.1.6

    Backup, restore, filtered exports

    Your whole history out and back in, and exports sliced by date, category and account.

  6. 1.1.7

    A chat that does things

    Rebuilt so it remembers the conversation, adds bills and sets budgets. Auto-track got its two setup videos.

  7. 1.2.0

    A new Pockito

    Rebuilt from the ground up, with its own typeface, full right-to-left Arabic and every payment kept in the currency you paid in.

  8. 1.3.0

    No payment dropped

    A card tap lands even when the phone is locked or offline. Bank texts work from any sender. Insights, all new.

  9. 1.3.2

    Import anything

    A long statement used to stop after the first page and still say it worked. Now you watch the whole file go in.

  10. 1.3.7

    Bank texts, read right

    The AI reads each bank message first, so a card number is never mistaken for a price.

  11. 1.3.9

    Opens on the newest iOS

    On the newest iOS Pockito closed itself after launch, and the shortcuts failed with it. 1.3.9 fixed both.

  12. 1.4.0

    Home starts with today

    Safe to spend first, a Wallet tab, Repeating, recaps for any dates, 24 languages and 68 fixes. One version number for iPhone and Android.

Every release note, for every version, in your language. What's new

Everything in one app

What used to take several apps now lives in one.

Multi-currency · 24 languages

In 24 languages, Arabic to Chinese.

Every screen, alert and widget is written for each language, and Arabic reads right to left in Thmanyah, a typeface drawn for Arabic. Track in any currency: a purchase in another currency converts at that day's rate.

Currency converter, the same daily rates as the app

From US Dollar USD 100.00

To Egyptian Pound EGP 5,239.99

Rate of 10 Oct 2026, from the same daily feed Pockito uses. In the app, a purchase in another currency is converted at that day's rate.

Your money, your way

Pockito fits your life, not the other way round.

  • Your pay sets the period, weekly or monthly, from the day it arrives.

  • Every account keeps its own currency, converted at the day's rate.

  • Log the way the moment suits: let it track, say it, scan it, type it or ask.

  • Gold by gram and karat, installments, money circles and loans, each its own kind of account.

  • Sync your phones with an account, or keep everything on one in Incognito mode.

  • Switch AI off and everything else keeps working, in 24 languages, light or dark.

One app, one price

One subscriptioninstead of one for each job.

Pro removes the limits and adds net worth, widgets, import, export and backup, for less than paying for the separate apps it replaces.

The App Store and Google Play show Pro's price in your currency.

Meet Pockito

A friend for your money,not another chore.

Pockito is the little wallet who lives in the app. It tells you plainly where you stand, calm, tight or over, cheers the streaks and the savings, and never scolds you for a coffee.

We want opening it to feel like checking in with a friend who keeps track for you: quick, clear and on your side, so you can get to what you are saving for.

How it is built

Four things we don't trade away.

  • No bank login

    Pockito never asks for your bank password. It reads what your phone already receives, once you allow it.

  • AI only when you allow it

    Receipts, voice, chat, imports and auto-track can use OpenAI to read the details. Turn AI processing off in Settings and nothing is sent.

  • Free where it counts

    Every manual entry, your full history, recaps, budget alerts and bill reminders are free.

  • Your data is never sold

    Pockito does not sell personal information and does not use it for advertising.
