The eight
Start anywhere
Each one has a page of its own, going into how it actually behaves rather than what it is called.
Multi-currency
Log in yen, see it in dollars. Tasca stores what you actually paid and converts it with the day's rate.
Daily budget
Set a daily allowance or a trip total. The dashboard answers one question: what can I still spend today?
Offline and private
No account, no ads, no trackers. Everything is stored on your iPhone and syncs through your own iCloud.
Receipt scanner
Point the camera at a receipt and Tasca reads the amount, merchant and date on device. Nothing is uploaded.
Stats and stories
Per country, per category, per day. Plus a tappable recap you can send to the people you travelled with.
Export
Claim it back, split it up, or file it. Take the whole trip out in a format your accountant will accept.
Widget and Siri
A widget with today's number, a Live Activity on the Lock Screen, and "Log expense in Tasca" for hands-free entry.
Categories
Type "ramen" once under Food and Tasca suggests it next time. Split one payment across several categories.

Stats
The half you actually came for
Logging is the chore. This is the payoff: where the money went, which country was quietly draining you, and what the trip cost per day once it was over.
Budget, at a glance
What is left, your daily pace, and your average per day, in one card.
Four ways to slice it
Overview, Categories, Locations and Patterns, each filterable by period.
Spend calendar
A month grid tinted by how hot each day ran. Tap a day to open it.
Back on track
If you are drifting, the number you need to trim per remaining day.
Limits
Four things it will not do
Better you find out here than on day two of a trip.
- Bank connections
- No aggregation and no credentials, which is also why there is nothing of yours to leak.
- Shared group trips
- It tracks one person. For a settle up between four people, use something built for that.
- Android
- iPhone only. It leans on Live Activities, App Intents and on-device Vision.
- A paid tier
- Nothing to upgrade to, which is the same reason there is no group sync to pay for.
