Export Every Transaction You've Logged

One-tap CSV export of all transactions, plus a full encrypted database backup file you can save to iCloud, Drive, or anywhere.

Why an expense app must respect the export

Your data, your call. Budgie ships two exports: a flat CSV for spreadsheets and a full SQLCipher database file for full restore. Both are user-initiated and saved through the OS share sheet.

CSV columns map cleanly to most spreadsheet pivots: date, account, category, tags, amount, currency, comment. The database backup carries the SQLCipher key wrapped in your PIN — restore on any device.

How it works

Frequently Asked Questions

Why two export formats?
CSV is for spreadsheets, tax software, and other apps that want flat data. The database backup preserves every relationship and account state for full restore on a new device.
Is the backup encrypted?
Yes. The backup file is the SQLCipher database with your PIN-derived key intact. Restore on any device by entering the same PIN.
Can I import the CSV back into Budgie?
The CSV-import feature handles any flat CSV including ones Budgie produced — useful for round-tripping or merging databases.
Does export work offline?
Yes. Both export flows produce files locally; you only need internet to upload them to a remote storage service.
