Honeydue is being discontinued. If you've relied on it to track shared finances with your partner, you're probably looking for an alternative right now. The good news: there's a better, completely free option that's actually built for couples.
We've helped hundreds of Honeydue users switch to a simpler, more private expense tracker. Here's everything you need to know about moving on.
Honeydue, the couples finance app that was acquired by Google in 2018, has been discontinued. Users have been notified to migrate their data before the service shuts down completely.
The shutdown leaves Honeydue users in a tough spot: your app is disappearing, your data needs exporting, and you need a replacement fast. Plus, if you've already logged hundreds of transactions, the thought of starting over feels overwhelming.
But here's the thing: for most couples, Honeydue's most powerful features (automatic bank syncing, account aggregation) were often more complicated than helpful. The truth is, many couples never even needed those features.
Before looking at alternatives, let's be clear on what really matters for couples expense tracking:
Honeydue had most of these, but the shutdown proves that even established apps can vanish. The lesson: pick an alternative that's not dependent on a mega-corp's whim.
Splitt is a free, web-based expense tracker built specifically for couples. No subscription, no hidden features that cost money, no corporate overlord. Just two partners, one shared account, complete clarity on who paid what.
Main difference from Honeydue: Splitt doesn't connect to your bank accounts. Instead, you log expenses manually (which takes 5 seconds per transaction). In return, you get privacy, simplicity, and a service that will never be acquired and killed.
Why manual expense logging is actually better than auto-sync:

Start Tracking ExpensesYou might be tempted to switch to a generic household budgeting app or something like Splitwise (which is designed for roommates and group trips). Don't. Here's why couples need a different approach:
Shared Dreams & Savings Goals. Beyond daily expense tracking, Splitt includes a "Dreams" feature where couples set shared goals (vacation, house, car) and track progress together. It's motivating and brings financial clarity to your relationship.
Automatic Categorization. Log an expense, and Splitt automatically guesses the category (groceries, restaurants, gas, etc.). You can override it, but most transactions are pre-categorized perfectly.
Monthly Insights. See exactly where your money goes: what's the top expense category, how much did you spend last month vs this month, trends over time.
Zero Distraction. Splitt is intentionally simple. No ads, no notifications trying to sell you premium features, no dark patterns. Just tracking.
A: Yes. Google announced the discontinuation, and Honeydue users have been notified to export their data and migrate. The service is no longer available to new users and will be fully shut down by mid-2026.
A: You can export your Honeydue history as a CSV file. Splitt doesn't have automatic import, but you can manually re-enter key historical expenses if you want continuity. Most couples prefer starting fresh—it feels psychologically cleaner and the historical data is less important than the relationship going forward.
A: No. Splitt uses manual expense logging—you log transactions yourself. This is actually simpler and more private than auto-sync. You only track shared expenses, not every coffee or gas purchase. Plus, zero risk of data breaches involving your banking credentials.
A: Completely free. Forever. No premium tiers, no hidden paywalls, no "freemium" tricks. Everything—unlimited expenses, analytics, shared dreams, invite links—is 100% free. We believe couples shouldn't have to pay for transparency in their relationship.
A: 7 languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Catalan. The app auto-detects your device language and loads the right version automatically.
A: You don't need to download anything. Splitt is a progressive web app (PWA). Open splitt-app.com in any browser—phone, tablet, laptop, doesn't matter. Your data syncs instantly across all devices. If you want a home screen icon on your phone, just "Add to Home Screen" (it's in your browser menu).
A: That's a fair fear. Splitt is an independent app built by a focused team, not owned by a mega-corp chasing quarterly profits. We're committed to long-term operation. Plus, Splitt is much simpler to maintain than complex fintech apps—lower cost, lower risk of sudden shutdown. If anything ever happened, we'd give users advance notice to export their data.
A: No. Splitt is designed for couples only—just two people. If you need to split expenses among friends or roommates, check out Splitwise. But for couple-to-couple tracking, Splitt is perfect.
Honeydue's shutdown is frustrating, but it's also an opportunity. Splitt was built from day one for exactly what couples actually need: simplicity, privacy, and clarity about shared money.
You don't need bank syncing. You don't need complex algorithms. You need to know who paid what, who owes whom, and have that conversation be clear and honest.
That's what Splitt does. It takes 60 seconds to set up, it's free forever, and your data stays between you and your partner.
Stop searching for Honeydue alternatives. Try Splitt. You'll be set up in less time than it takes to read this paragraph.
