Siyahi

स्याही · ink

Write the day. Keep the book.

A private journal for cash, card, and UPI — what came in, what went out, and who is still holding some of it. On this phone. No account. No cloud.

iPhone and iPad · Coming to the App Store

Siyahi home: on hand, cash, card, UPI. The journal, day by day. People who still have some of it. Add a line: got paid, spent, lent, borrowed.

Four ways money moves.

That is the whole vocabulary. You write the line when it actually happened.

SpentMoney out — food, rent, the auto home.
I lentWaiting on them. Optional due date and a nudge.
I borrowedYou owe it. Same book, other direction.

The book adds up.

Opening of this month is last month’s closing. In and out include everything that moved a wallet, so the page actually balances.

Cash, card, UPI

Three piles, not one lump. On hand is the three together, as of the month you are looking at.

People stay open

Maya still has eighty. Dev is overdue. Record a return when it comes back. Copy a short nudge if you need to ask.

Months close

Past months lock. If you still add a line there, Siyahi shows how later openings and closings change, then waits for you to confirm.

A light cap

Food, travel, rent, and the rest. Going over still saves. It is a journal, not a budget cop.

The pages.

Phone for the pocket. iPad for the desk — a sidebar, and people split so the list and the person sit together.

On iPad, the book has room to sit open.

It never leaves this device.

There is no Siyahi server. Entries, people, your name, and an optional pin live on the phone. A pin is stored as a hash, not the digits. Recurring items are templates — they never post on their own.

Save a JSON copy when you want a spare. Restore reads a file you pick. We never receive it.

Start empty with an opening in cash, card, and UPI, or load a sample month to see the pages with a story already in them.

What it is not.

  • Not a bank, UPI app, or card feed.
  • Not double-entry accounting.
  • Not a shared household ledger.
  • Not a cloud backup we hold for you.
