Finlynq is now on iOS and Android

A native companion app for your money · Published 2026-06-01 · Updated 2026-06-24

Finlynq has always been two things: a web app where you track your money, and an MCP server that lets your AI assistant dig into it. The catch was that the moment you stepped away from your desk, you had to open a browser. Not anymore. Finlynq now has a real native app, and it is live today on both the App Store and Google Play.

What you can do in the app

The mobile app is a true companion to the web app, not a watered-down viewer. It talks to the same Finlynq backend over HTTPS, so everything you set up on the web is there on your phone the moment you sign in. On day one you can:

  • See your net worth and a dashboard of recent activity at a glance.
  • Browse accounts and balances, with each account's native currency shown alongside your display currency.
  • Review transactions, budgets with progress, your investment portfolio and holdings, and your savings goals.
  • Add transactions, accounts, categories, and goals on the go, so you can log a purchase the moment it happens.
  • Import statements straight from your phone by picking a CSV or PDF file.
  • Switch between light, dark, and system themes, read announcements, and send feedback right from the app.

The same privacy model as the web

The mobile app does not change how your data is protected. Your sensitive labels (merchant names, account names, notes, tags, category names) stay encrypted at rest with a key derived from your password, exactly as they are on the web. The phone is a client; it signs in over HTTPS and the server decrypts only what a screen needs to show you. If you want the full walkthrough of how that works, it is in How Finlynq encrypts your money.

Self-hosting? Point the app at your own instance

Finlynq is AGPL v3, and a lot of people run it on their own hardware. The mobile app has a server field, so you are not locked to the managed cloud: enter the URL of your self-hosted instance and the app connects there instead. Same app, your server, your data. The self-hosting guide lives at /self-hosted.

Where things stand, and what is next

Both apps are live now: iOS on the App Store, Android on Google Play, built from a single React Native codebase. What comes next is not more platforms, it is depth. We are closing the last gaps with the web app, adding push notifications, and smoothing the rough edges that only show up once people use something every day. If you hit one of those, send feedback from inside the app. It comes straight to us.

None of this changes the heart of Finlynq. The web app and the MCP server remain the core of how you track and analyze your money. The mobile app is about meeting you where you already are: in line at a store, on the couch, away from your laptop.
