Money management made simple
Are you tired of personal finance apps like Quicken that are overloaded with features you don't need? GreenBooks* isn't like that. It is powerful enough to do all the money management tasks you need, but with none of the complexity you don't.
Stay Organized
As a financial tracker, GreenBooks lets you easily keep track of all your accounts without hassle or distraction. We made everyday tasks like entering transactions super fast, so doing it everyday is not a chore. It's simply the most pleasant user interface for keeping track of your accounts.
See Breakdown
With one click, see where your money is going. In GreenBooks, you can see a breakdown of your expenses and incomes by categories. You can easily toggle between different periods, and drill into a category to see more detailed breakdowns.
Observe Trends
Quickly gauge your financial performance over time. For example, see if your overall account balance is going up or down, compare your overall incomes to expenses, or compare your groceries to dining expenses. The Trends chart gives you the answer you are looking for.
Effective Budgeting
GreenBooks lets you create a budget that accounts for all of your spending and income categories, so you know how much you are saving at the end of a budget period. You can even create parallel budgets, one for the year and one for the current month, to have both a long- and short-term view.
Direct Connect
Direct Connect lets you connect your accounts directly to your bank accounts, so new transactions stream in automatically and are automatically reconciled with your pending transactions.
Direct Connect is an extra service that does require a subscription of $2.99/month.
GreenBooks for iPhone
Just like GreenBooks for Mac, GreenBooks for iPhone is a simple yet powerful personal finance manager. You can use it standalone, or as a companion to the Mac app. Secure iCloud sync keeps data current on all your devices.
Tutorial Videos
These short, easily digestible videos teach you how to use GreenBooks effectively.
I still remember what initially drew me to GreenBooks. Simple, elegant and informative. The features it has have purpose and represent the core you need. The UI is intuitive and attractive. And the reporting is what really stands out to me. So many apps have tons of reports and graphs, but I don’t feel like I need the info. In GreenBooks, what I want is easy to glean. The breakdown view shows me exactly what I earned and spent and what the net is. My most important metric. Trends also have a similar feel. Simple and informative. GreenBooks is for people who want a lean, focused, attractive and effective way to stay on top of their money. :)

I didn’t realize I have been using GreenBooks for 10 years! GreenBooks is a very stable part of keeping track of my small amount of money. It gives me control and makes me feel safe. I can budget well and always know exactly where I stand on my finances. Consequently, I live a very comfortable life as a retired person on Social Security and that’s saying something!
People ❤️ GreenBooks
11,000+ paid customers can't be wrong.
I guess I have tried them all, but this is without a doubt the easiest one I have ever used. It is self explanatory in every way.
