Finlynq has always been two things: a web app where you track your money, and an MCP server that lets your AI assistant query and manage it. There was a gap: when you were away from your desk, you had to open a browser. That gap is closing. Finlynq now has a native mobile app. The Android version is in final testing on Google Play right now, and iOS will follow.
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
The Android app is built and uploaded to Google Play, currently in a closed testing track while we work through Google's pre-launch review and a round of real-device testing. A public release on the Play Store is the next step. After that, the iOS build follows: the app is written once in React Native, so the iOS version is a matter of the Apple build and review process, not a rewrite.
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.
