Cone

Cone is a mobile ledger application compatible with beancount. I use it as part of my accounting automation workflow.

Installation⚑

• Download the application from F-droid.
• It assumes that you have a txt file to store the information. As it doesn't yet support the edition or deletion of transactions, I suggest you create the ledger.txt file with your favorite mobile editor such as Markor.
• Open the application and load the ledger.txt file.

Usage⚑

To be compliant with my beancount ledger:

• I've initialized the ledger.txt file with the open statements of the beancount accounts, so the transaction UI autocompletes them.
• Cone doesn't still support the beancount format by default, so in the description of the transaction I also introduce the payee. For example: * "payee1" "Bought X instead of just Bought X.

If I need to edit or delete a transaction, I change it with the Markor editor.

To send the ledger file to the computer, I use either Share via HTTP or Termux through ssh.
