About PlentyBook - Checkbook Ledger
PlentyBook is a simple checkbook register — the paper check register you grew up with, on your phone. Type an amount, tap Income or Expense, and see a running balance on every line. No ads, no account to create, no subscription.
FAST, WITH NO POP-UPS
The keypad is always on screen, so adding a line takes about two seconds and never opens a single pop-up. Tap any entry to change it.
YOUR REGISTER IS SAFE HERE
Years of entries are the whole point of a checkbook, so PlentyBook is built to protect them:
• Back up your whole register to a plain, readable file you keep — free, whether you buy anything or not.
• Restoring adds and updates entries and never deletes anything already in the app.
• With iCloud sync on, each entry syncs on its own through your own iCloud, to your own devices.
BALANCE YOUR CHECKBOOK
Mark each transaction as cleared once it reaches your bank, and PlentyBook shows your cleared balance beside your current balance — so checking your register against your bank statement is quick.
A RUNNING BALANCE ON EVERY LINE
See what the balance was after each entry, the way a paper register works. Newest entries sit at the top, where you actually look.
MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS
Keep a register for checking, for savings, for the cash in your pocket. Give each one a color so you always know which book you're in at a glance. Every account is completely separate.
SIMPLE BY DEFAULT
Out of the box there are three ideas: a starting balance, money in, and money out. Notes are optional. Categories, day grouping, and marking entries as cleared all exist — but every one of them is switched off until you decide you want it.
FIND ANYTHING, AUDIT ANY PERIOD
Search notes, amounts, or categories, and see what the matches add up to. Total money in, money out, and the net for this month, last month, this year, or any range you pick.
LIGHT, OR NOT
Light by default. Flip it to Inverted if you prefer, or let it follow your system.
PRIVATE
No account. No sign-up. No email address. No analytics, no trackers, no ads. PlentyBook has no server, so your register never comes to us. It stays on your device unless you switch on iCloud sync, and then it goes to your own iCloud and your own devices.
FREE, WITH ONE OPTIONAL PURCHASE
PlentyBook is free with one account. A single purchase unlocks unlimited accounts and iCloud sync — one payment, no subscription.
