ℹ️ The creator of the expenses do not work for older transactions, you can change the creator on the transaction edit screen.

Since iOS 17

Automatic Apple Pay tracking Since iOS 17 you can set up an "transaction automation" with the shortcuts app and use MonAi's custom shortcuts to automatically track based on the merchant and amount.

Here's how:

v1.4.14

Shortcut / Apple Pay improvements. The shortcut - which is also used for the apple pay automation - now let's you manually choose a category in case it couldn't be automatically detected.

v1.4.0

Home Screen Widget I heard you, loud and clear. It was time for a widget. Here it is. It's a start, there's more to come further down the road.

v1.4.1

Recurrence issue There was an issue where recurring transactions were sometimes not triggered. This is fixed now and not triggered transactions were back tracked with this version automatically. You might want to double check in case you added them manually as a temporary fix.

List of recurring transactions In the settings you can now view and remove all of your recurring transactions.

Swipe to change month On the main screen of the app, you can now swipe left and right on the amount label to quickly jump to the next or previous month. (Pro users only)

Rollover If you decided to show your income you can now enable rollover in the settings, which let's you see your total balance (income - expenses) of all transactions rather than only this month.

New category from transaction entry You can now add a new category right from the transaction entry screen. Just tap the + icon next to the categories.

v1.3.0

Recurring transactions The most requested feature is now a reality. You can now easily add recurring transactions, or add a specific date, right from your already familiar entry screen.

Just open the entry screen and select from the dropdowns above your description field.

The speech to text recognition currently works for setting a date but not yet to set recurring entries.

Just say something like "Spent 50 dollar at Walmart yesterday"


v1.1.1

Currency selector. You are now able to change your currency separate from your app region.

In the MonAi app, go to Settings (⚙️) and scroll down to "Currency".

There is currently only one base currency, so entering multiple different currencies is not possible as of now.


v1.1.0

Siri support*. Add your expenses automatically without even opening the app.
Pro tip. Follow this easy 2-step-setup guide to be able to say "New expense" instead of "New expense in MonAi".
Rename shortcut

Long press and "Rename" to whatever you want Siri to listen to.

*Unfortunately it does come with a small asterisks.

  • Available for iOS 16+
  • Supported languages are English and German
  • Due to a limitation it needs to be a 2 step process, activated by: "New expense (in MonAi)", follwed by a question from Siri to enter an amount and a description question.

The implementation uses AppIntents, so this will also be available in your shortcuts app for you to build your own awesome workflows. 🎉
