How to track expenses without an account

RLC App Solutions6 November 20262 min readAbout Kwenta

Short answer

Kwenta has no sign-up because it has no account. You buy it once, open it, and log an amount. The entry is written on the phone, and the next one starts from a cleared form.

The add screen puts the number pad first. You type the amount, pick a category from the icon grid, and optionally add a note and a date. The date defaults to today. Save keeps you on the same screen so a receipt with several lines does not bounce you back to the dashboard after each row.

Quick add

The home-screen widget and the add button open a shorter sheet: number pad, category chips, one tap to save. The widget also shows this month's total, the budget, what is left, and the last expense. Tapping it opens quick add without sitting through the splash screen.

A receipt

Point the camera at a receipt, or pick a photo. Kwenta reads a total, a date, and a merchant name on the device and fills the form. You can change any field before saving. The scan is a draft, not a posted expense, until you confirm it.

What you see after that

The dashboard keeps a streak of days you logged at least one expense. A weekly card compares this week with last week. A category card shows where the month's largest share went. Reports cover this month, the last three months, the last six, and the year, with a total, a daily average, a transaction count, and a category breakdown.

Nine categories ship with the app: Food and Drinks, Transport, Shopping, Health, Entertainment, Bills and Utilities, Education, Travel, and Other. You can add your own. The built-in ones cannot be deleted. The currency symbol defaults to the peso and can be changed in settings.
