Common Questions

Is this a real app or just a website?

It's a progressive web app (PWA) — a real app that installs on your home screen, works offline, sends push notifications, and runs full-screen. The only difference from a native app is that you install it from your browser instead of the App Store.

Will it work without internet?

Yes. Waypoint caches your data locally so you can view your budget and transactions offline. New data will sync when you're back online.

Do I get push notifications?

Yes. Waypoint supports push notifications for budget alerts, transaction syncs, and weekly summaries — just like a native app.

Why not just build a native app?

Native apps take months to review, update, and maintain across iOS and Android separately. With a PWA, we ship improvements instantly to everyone — no waiting for app store approvals. You always get the latest version.

Does it work on desktop too?

Yes. Waypoint works on any device with a browser — Mac, Windows, Linux, Chromebook. You get the same account across all your devices, always in sync.
