Pocket Clear ships updates every few weeks. The latest version is v2.05 (August 2026), available on iOS 17+ and Android 8+. This page is the official, dated changelog for the privacy-first expense tracker — all notable releases since launch, newest first.
Latest release
v2.05 — August 2026
New Lock Screen widgets (free, iPhone) — put today's spending under the clock on your Lock Screen, in whichever of three shapes fits: a small circular one, a wider one with the figure on its own line, or an inline one that sits beside the date. Tapping any of them opens Pocket Clear straight on Add Expense, so logging something is a tap rather than a hunt for the app icon. Your iPhone still asks for Face ID first — Apple doesn't allow typing from a locked screen — but it's a good deal quicker than going looking. How widgets work
New Add Expense button (free, iPhone on iOS 18 and later) — add Pocket Clear to Control Center, or use it to replace the torch or camera button in the corner of your Lock Screen, and go straight to Add Expense from anywhere. How to add it
Switching to annual Pro now works on Android (Pro) — if you're on monthly, Settings now has a Pro section with your plan and a way to move to annual, with the price your store actually charges shown before you confirm. Previously there was no way to change plan from inside the app at all. Google credits the unused part of the month you've already paid for.
A partner's payment type now shows on their transactions (Pro) — opening a transaction your partner logged shows the payment method they used instead of an empty field. This also closes a quieter problem underneath it: saving one of their transactions could previously clear the payment type on their copy.
Plus a fix for couples on different phones — a partner's payment method now matches correctly regardless of which platform created it.
v2.04 — August 2026
New Payees (Pro, opt-in) — track who a transaction was with, not just what it was for. Turn it on in Settings > Payees and a Payee field appears on Add/Edit Transaction — tap it and your payees drop down, most-used first, and typing filters the list or creates a new one. Manage Payees lets you rename, merge, or delete a payee — deleting only removes it from the picker, so your existing transactions keep the payee name and still show up in Reports. Top Payees in Reports always shows your own spending, even in combined Partner Mode view, since payees aren't shared between partners. How Payees work
All Transactions search is back — and now on iOS too (free) — search across your whole history by note, category, amount, or payee name, on both iOS and Android.
New semi-monthly view and budget period (free) — if you're paid twice a month rather than fortnightly, you can now set two boundary days (1st and 16th by default) and have Home, Reports and All Transactions follow the same two periods per month. Budgets can use it too, so a limit resets on payday instead of on the 1st. The boundary days are per device and aren't synced. How View Period works
New Appearance settings (free) — you can now give a negative balance on Home its own colour, so a month you are down for no longer looks the same as a good one — both start on mint, so nothing changes until you pick. You can also hide the parts of Home you don't use — the streak badge, the Overall Balance row and the Setup Guide ring. All per device, nothing synced — and Appearance now appears in the Home setup guide, so it's findable rather than buried. How Appearance settings work
Partner budgets and payment types now show up properly (Pro) — budget limits your partner set on their phone now appear in Reports > Budgets as read-only progress bars alongside your own, clearly labelled, and there's a note making explicit what was always true: budget limits track your combined spending, not just yours. A partner's payment types also resolve now instead of rendering blank on their transactions. How Budgets work
New "Spent today" on Home (free) — a running total of what you've spent today, sitting just above your recent transactions, so you can see the day's damage without adding it up yourself. It counts expenses only, hides along with your balance when you tap the eye, and can be switched off under Settings > Appearance. How it works
Plus the usual round of fixes — more accurate combined spending totals for couples using both iOS and Android, correct colours on a break-even month, and a handful of smaller corrections across Reports.
v2.03 — July 2026
New Setup Guide (free) — a small completion ring in the top-left of Home shows how many of Pocket Clear's 19 features you've set up, like 6/19. Tap it for the "Set up Pocket Clear" checklist, where every row is a feature with a one-line description and tapping it takes you straight to that feature's setup screen. Completion is worked out from data already on your device — nothing is tracked or sent anywhere — and you can Skip anything you'll never want (with Undo). The ring hides itself at 19/19 and reopens from Settings → Setup guide. How the Setup Guide works
The daily reminder now skips the days you've already logged (free) — if you've logged a transaction that day, the reminder doesn't fire at all, so it only nudges you on days you actually forgot. Only the current day is ever skipped; future days always stay armed, and if the check can't be made the reminder is sent anyway. Entirely on your device. How the daily reminder works
New annual Pro plan — Pro is now $34.99/year (₹1299) as well as $4.99/month — about 42% cheaper per month in USD, and the app shows the exact saving for your store. The upgrade screen defaults to monthly with annual as a toggle, and the one-month free trial applies to either.
Reports: 20 distinct category colours — the "Spending by Category" chart palette has grown from 8 colours to 20, so two categories no longer end up sharing a colour once you have more than eight. The original eight are unchanged, so nothing you're used to seeing has been recoloured.
Reports → Budgets now opens with a summary (Pro) — above the individual budgets, a progress ring with the percentage of your total budget used, how much is left or over, how many budgets are over versus on track, and — while you're viewing the current period — how much you can still spend per day to stay on budget. How Budgets work
Smart Suggestions got sharper (free) — chips now show the exact amount and fill it in when tapped, so a recurring expense is one tap then Save. One category can offer several chips at different amounts, and anything already covered by an active recurring rule is left out. How Smart Suggestions work
v2.02 — July 2026
New Smart Suggestions (free) — once you've logged around 15 transactions, quick-add chips appear above the Add Transaction screen for the spending you do habitually. Tap one and it fills in the category, subcategory and payment type for you. It ranks your own past entries on your phone — nothing is ever sent to a server or any AI service. On by default; turn it off in Settings › Smart Suggestions. How Smart Suggestions work
New Travel Mode (Pro) — abroad, type amounts in the local currency exactly as they appear on the receipt and Pocket Clear converts and saves them in your home currency, with a live preview as you type. Your home currency never changes, so reports, budgets and past transactions stay exactly as they were. Turn it on from Settings › Travel Mode, or accept the prompt when your timezone changes country; a ✈ icon shows while it's active. How Travel Mode works
New Budget Rollover (Pro) — carry a category's unused budget into the next period instead of resetting to zero, so a $50 leftover on a $500 Food budget means $550 next month. Overspend carries too. Shown per category in Reports → Budgets and reflected in the remaining-budget line when you add a transaction. Off by default; enable it at the top of Settings → Budgets. How Budget Rollover works
v2.01 — July 2026
Wealth (Beta) is here — connect a brokerage account and see your net worth, asset allocation, and account balances in the new Wealth tab, fetched live every time you open it. Rolling out gradually to early-access registrants. Your brokerage login goes directly to our connection partner SnapTrade — Pocket Clear never sees your credentials, and your holdings are never stored on our servers. How your Wealth data is protected
New Decimal Places setting (free) — show amounts with no decimals ($12), two ($12.34), or three ($12.340), or leave it on Auto to follow your currency
Weekly and Biweekly view periods can now start on any day — align them to your pay cycle instead of Monday-to-Sunday (set a start weekday for Weekly, or an anchor date for Biweekly)
Reorder your payment types with up/down arrows, just like categories — put your preferred card first when logging
v2.00 — July 2026
New Wealth tab — register for early access to automatic net-worth and investment tracking, coming soon to Pocket Clear
New one-time Lifetime plan — pay once and keep Pocket Clear Pro forever, with no subscription
v1.94 — June 2026
Budget month can now start on the 29th, 30th, or 31st — your choice sticks instead of reverting to the 28th. In shorter months the period simply starts on that month's last day (February starts on the 28th, or the 29th in a leap year), then returns to your chosen day the next month
v1.93 — June 2026
Optional time on any transaction — set the time of day; same-day entries sort by time, the time shows on each row, and it's included in CSV and PDF exports
"Show All Transactions" now opens at the month you're viewing instead of jumping back to the current month

Overall Balance up to the viewed month — with balance carry-over on, see the running balance through the month you're viewing alongside that month's clean Net
Neutral inter-account transfers (Pro, opt-in) — record money moved between your accounts, like paying a credit card from debit; transfers stay out of your Money In / Money Out / Net totals and show up per payment method in Reports
v1.92 — June 2026
Filter All Transactions by amount — set a minimum, a maximum, or both
Sort All Transactions by amount, high to low or low to high

New Yearly budget period, and recurring rules can now repeat yearly or on days 29–31 (safely clamped to the end of shorter months)
