Privacy
Private budgeting app. Local-first by design.
Most budgeting apps treat your transactions as their data. Clarius treats them as yours.
Your phone is the database
Clarius uses an encrypted SQLite database stored on your device. Your transactions never leave it unless you turn on cloud sync.
Biometric + PIN
Face ID / Touch ID unlock backed by a PIN. The PIN is stored as a SHA-256 hash, never plaintext.
Encrypted at rest, everywhere
Your data is encrypted at rest on your device — and, if you enable cloud sync, encrypted at rest in the cloud too.
You own your backups
Export an encrypted JSON backup with your own password. Save it to iCloud, Files, or anywhere you trust.
