About PocketGuard
PocketGuard connects to your bank and card accounts, tracks transactions and builds a monthly budget that shows how much money is left after bills, debts and savings goals. It also tracks net worth, cash flow and recurring subscriptions, and includes a debt payoff planner, transaction rules and alerts.
It runs on the web, iOS and Android. New users start with a 7-day free trial. It suits people who want an automatic overview of their spending rather than entering every expense by hand.
