New portfolio tracker encrypts all user financial data on-device

Original: We built a portfolio and spending tracker that can't read your numbers. Your key is made on your device from your passwo

A developer has launched a portfolio and spending tracker designed so the company cannot view users' financial figures. Encryption keys are generated on the user's device from their password, meaning portfolio and wallet data reach the servers already encrypted. The maker openly acknowledges the main limitation: users must still trust the code being served, since the app is not open source.

Why now: Privacy concerns around financial apps are high, and the honest admission of the encryption model's limits is drawing attention.
