Simple. Free. Yours.
A free, offline-first Android app for tracking income and expenses, built for the informal economy.
No account. No internet. No ads. No catch.
Most bookkeeping tools are built for businesses with bank accounts, accountants, and invoices. Hisab is built for everyone else.
The roadside vendor. The home tailor. The student living alone for the first time. Anyone who deals in cash and just needs to know, did I make money this month?
Hisab answers that question. Nothing more, nothing less.
- Log income and expenses in seconds
- Category-based expense tracking with large, icon-driven chips
- Monthly summary: total in, total out, your profit
- Month navigation: swipe or tap to browse past months
- CSV export: your data, your file, your control
- Theme color picker: 5 colors to choose from
- Fully offline: works without internet after install
- No account required: ever
- Multiple languages: more coming with every release
Coming soon

Hisab was designed with two people in mind.
Fatima runs a food stall outside a garment factory. She buys ingredients every morning and sells through the day. She never knew if she was actually making a profit, until now.
Jasleen Kaur moved from Punjab to Toronto to study. She works part-time, sends money home, and was quietly terrified of running out before the end of the month. She didn't need a budgeting app that linked to her bank. She needed something simple she could trust.
If you see yourself in either of them, Hisab is for you.
- Kotlin: Android development
- SQLite: local on-device storage
- Android SDK: minimum API 23 (Android 6.0)

For Fatima. For Jasleen. For everyone in between.
