Abstract - : We present an intelligent expense tracker to efficiently manage the monthly expenses. Our system will help everyone who are planning to know their expenses and save from it. The user will be given the facility to set a monthly limit and if the user crosses that limit our app will notify the user about the same. The user can give receipts as an input, using our Android app. will sort it into different categories. Here user can also define their own categories like food, clothing, rent and bills and the user can also set limits for a particular category.
