About this app

What PriceWatch does

Inflation is a national average. Your grocery bill is not. PriceWatch is the offline price-history binder that finally answers the question the news never does: how much more is MY basket costing me, this year, in real dollars? Every time you shop, you log what you actually paid for the staples you actually buy — a gallon of milk, a dozen eggs, your coffee, a tank of gas, the kid's cereal. PriceWatch remembers each item and quietly builds a per-item price curve over weeks and months. No more guessing whether eggs 'feel' expensive. You'll see the exact line: $3.49 in March, $4.10 in May, the trend, and the percentage. It's the personal receipt your wallet has been keeping in its head, finally written down. Then PriceWatch does the math you can't do in your head. It weights each item by how often you buy it, fits a trend across your whole basket, and projects a household-specific annualized increase — your personal 'price gap.' When economists say tariffs and food inflation are adding roughly a thousand dollars a year to the average household in 2026, PriceWatch shows you YOUR number, built from YOUR receipts, not a headline average. It's a vivid, motivating gut-check that turns vague frustration into a figure you can act on — switch stores, swap brands, or stock up before the next jump. PriceWatch is built to be honest and private. There's no account to create and nothing to sign in to. Your entire price history lives on this device — no servers, no syncing, no ads, no selling your shopping habits to anyone. Open the app on a plane, in a store basement with no signal, anywhere; it just works. Free forever for tracking your core staples, with an optional one-time PriceWatch Pro unlock for power shoppers who want unlimited items, store-by-store comparisons, and CSV export. Whether you're a budget-conscious family feeling every grocery run, a fixed-income retiree watching staples creep up, or just someone tired of being told 'prices are rising' without a personal number, PriceWatch puts the receipts on your side. Start with the five things you buy most, log them each shopping trip, and within a few weeks you'll have a trend line and a real dollar projection no national headline can give you. It's the simplest possible habit with the most personal possible payoff: clarity about where your money is actually going as prices climb. • Per-item price history with clean trend charts for every staple you track • Your personal basket gap: a household-specific annualized increase in real dollars • Fast logging — type the price or capture a receipt total in seconds • Item streaks and biggest-mover alerts so you know which staple jumped most • Tag prices by store to compare where you actually save • 100% offline and account-free — your data never leaves your iPhone • No ads, no tracking, no subscription required • Optional one-time Pro unlock: unlimited items, store comparisons, CSV export
