Gift Exchange Tracker

A practical app to help you track gifts and monetary exchanges. Whether tracking cultural red envelopes or birthday gifts, it easily records and automatically calculates your net balances.

Features & How to Use

1. Record Tracking

  • In the "Records" tab, click [Add Record] to log every gift or monetary value you receive or give.
  • You can track physical gifts as well. Whether a physical item adds to your overall financial balance depends on if its category is marked as "Monetary" in your custom settings.

2. Categories & Customization

  • We provide preset common categories (e.g., Cash, Gift Cards, Toys).
  • Add Custom Categories: Click [Custom Categories] to create your own. When creating one, you can check Is Monetary (๐Ÿ’ฐ). Non-monetary categories won't alter your net financial balance statistic but are kept for sentimental tracking.

3. Smart Statistics

  • Switch to the "Statistics" tab to view your cumulative [Total Received], [Total Given], and overall [Net Balance].
  • The "Per Person" list automatically aggregates all exchanges you've had with specific individuals, effortlessly calculating the exact difference/net balance.

4. Personal Timeline

  • Clicking on any contact's name will open their personal Timeline in the statistics view.
  • The timeline offers a chronological view of all your exchanges with this specific person, making it perfectly easy to reference past gifts before returning a favor!
