Why we expect it: Clear value, a focused payday question, careful Canadian tax handling and a privacy-first design make Mesura a strong debut.

In short

Mesura is an iPhone budgeting app that shows how much you can safely spend before your next paycheque, with a daily figure and a pace check. It is aimed at people in Canada, estimating GST, HST, PST, QST and RST for your province, and it can log tap-to-pay Apple Pay purchases automatically through a Shortcuts setup. Notably, all data stays on the device and syncs through your own iCloud, with no bank connection.

About

Mesura answers one question: how much can I safely spend before my next pay?

Add your income and your bills, and Mesura shows what's safe to spend for the rest of your pay period, how much that is per day, and whether you're on pace. Starting mid-month? Enter what's in your account now, and Mesura counts from there. Charts show how your spending is tracking toward payday, where it went by category, and how this pay splits between bills, spending and what's left.

Built for people in Canada. Mesura estimates GST, HST, PST, QST and RST on your purchases for your home province, and estimates take-home pay for income you enter before tax. All tax figures are estimates, not tax advice; if you have the receipt, type its tax to replace the estimate.

LOG PURCHASES AUTOMATICALLY Set up one Shortcuts automation for your card, and each tap-to-pay Apple Pay purchase is logged on its own, with its merchant and amount. Mesura walks you through the setup in the app. Purchases made on websites or inside apps aren't captured; you can always add any purchase by hand.

ADD A PURCHASE IN SECONDS Ask Siri to "Add a purchase in Mesura", or put the Add Purchase action on Back Tap, the Action Button, your Home Screen or Control Center. It asks how much and where, and saves without opening the app.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No accounts, no ads, no tracking, no bank connection. Your data stays on your iPhone and syncs through your own private iCloud. Export your purchases to a spreadsheet any time.
