Extrack is a Progressive Web App — the manifest registers the name "Extrack" with the description "Privacy-first personal finance: accounts, budgets, recurring bills, and net-worth tracking — you enter the data." Install via Safari's "Add to Home Screen" on iOS, or Chrome's "Install app" on Android. After install, the app opens full-screen without browser chrome.

Steps

  1. iOS — Safari → Share → Add to Home Screen

    Open Extrack in Safari (not Chrome — iOS only allows Safari to install PWAs). Share icon → Add to Home Screen.

  2. Android — Chrome → Install app

    Three-dot menu → "Install app" (or "Add to Home screen").

  3. Sign in once

    On first launch as a PWA, sign in. The session persists across launches.

Frequently asked

Why is Extrack not in the App Store / Play Store?

PWAs install from the browser with the same look-and-feel as native apps — no app-store review delay, no platform revenue cut.
