Your spending in Tunisia, week by week

Typed, photographed or spoken

Type the first letters and the app suggests items you bought before, with the store and the last price you paid. Photograph the receipt, printed at a Monoprix till or written by hand at the corner shop, and its lines fill the add form. Or hold ＋ and say what you bought. Either way you check the form and tap Save, and nothing is recorded before that.

Built around a month in Tunisia

Much of the day-to-day is still paid in cash: the grocer on the corner, the weekly souk, bread on the way home. The bigger shop happens at Aziza, Magasin Général or Carrefour. Both go into the ledger the same way. You set the month's budget yourself, and Masareefy never suggests one. Once you record them, rent, the internet subscription, your mobile plan and your instalments are set aside from the first day of the month, and what remains is spread over its weeks.

Three pages go further: a monthly budget in Tunisian dinars with a worked example, instalments paid month by month, and receipt scanning in Tunisia. If you share your ledger with one other person, each new entry reaches their phone within moments, and you choose what they see.
