Private · Offline · Built from official figures

Find the money you’re owed. Keep more of what you earn.

Reckato checks your household for the benefits and tax credits you may be missing, works out your real take-home pay — including the local tax everyone else leaves out — and tells you the rules where you live. Every figure from the agency that publishes it. Nothing you enter leaves your phone.

What it does

Built around the questions people actually have about money.

Not a spreadsheet, not a budgeting app that wants your bank login. Tools that answer one question each, from the figures the government publishes.

The benefits finder showing what a household may be owed, with each programme and its official page

Money you may be owed

Benefits finder: what your household may be missing.

Answer a few questions about your household and the app screens the federal and state programmes you may qualify for — tax credits, food, health cover and bill help. Every finding shows the rule with your own numbers in it, what it is worth, and the official page to claim it. Canada, India and Ireland have their own finders.

Salary and take-home pay split per paycheque

Take-home pay and local tax

What you actually take home — including the tax everyone else leaves out.

Federal, FICA and all fifty states, per paycheque. Then the part most calculators skip: the city, county and school-district tax where you live and where you work, and the credit your home town owes you back. Enter what your payslip says and the payslip check tells you if your employer is withholding correctly.

The rules-where-you-are screen showing a state minimum wage and its source

The rules where you are

Minimum wage, last paycheque, your deposit — for your state, with the source.

The minimum wage in your actual city. When your final pay must arrive after you quit. How long a landlord has to return your deposit. What your state taxes in retirement. This year’s Medicare, 401(k), IRA and HSA limits. Every answer names the table it came from.

The For-you screen: the money dates coming up, your next move, and prices where you live

Money calendar and reminders

What’s coming up, and a plan when life changes.

The days off and the big money dates ahead for your country, soonest first, with a countdown — and on-device reminders for the deadlines that cost money if missed, such as estimated-tax instalments. When life changes, a step-by-step plan opens the right tool for each step and links the official office. Reminders are local notifications on your phone; nothing is sent anywhere.

The editable calculator keypad with the tape of past results

The calculator

A calculator that lets you fix the sum you already typed.

Tap any number or sign in the expression to change it, instead of starting over. Every result is kept on a tape. Save a formula you use often. Scientific mode, unit and currency conversion, percentages, dates, tips and splits are a tap away.

Nothing about you ever leaves your phone.

Reckato has no account, no analytics, no advertising and no crash reporting. What you earn, who is in your household, what you typed — all of it stays in the app on your device, and deleting the app deletes all of it.

The app works offline. A few optional live cards — exchange rates, your country’s stock index, the central-bank rate, and weather for a ZIP or postcode you choose to add — fetch public data only when you turn them on, and nothing about you is sent. That is not a setting; it is how the app is built. Read the full privacy policy.

  • No account or sign-up
  • No analytics or crash reporting
  • No advertising, no trackers
  • No data collected — the store questionnaires say so
  • Works with no signal
  • Optional live cards fetch public government data only when you turn them on
  • Reminders are local notifications on your phone
  • Purchases handled by Apple or Google; Reckato never sees your card
