Submitted via form by the vendor 2026-10-22 05:38 UTC (2026-10-21 22:38 PDT); editorial entry written independently from live pages on the site's Pacific working date 2026-10-21. Prices were read from three surfaces that agree: the application/ld+json Offer array on /pricing (0.00, 4.00, 39.00, 19.00, 179.00), the rendered plan cards and the limit-by-limit comparison table on the same page, and /legal/billing which restates US$4/month or US$39/year and US$19/month or US$179/year; the site's llms.txt carries the same figures. Category was reclassified from the submitted 'Writing & Productivity' to Productivity after reading the product pages - it is a gear-inventory and studio-operations app, not a writing tool. Legal pages read in full: /legal/privacy (last updated 2026-10-19, 16 sections), /legal/terms (2026-10-02, 13 sections, California governing law, liability cap of the greater of six months' fees or US$100), /legal/billing (refunds, renewals, California Automatic Renewal Law notice) and /legal/notice; all four return 200 and the Terms' reference to /legal/billing resolves. Privacy section 1 names the controller as Dylan Andersen, GearDex, 842 St Vincent, Irvine, CA 92618, matching /legal/notice and /contact. Trackers were checked on the served pages rather than assumed: Google Analytics G-BNVX42Q1BT loads with Consent Mode defaulting analytics_storage and ad_storage to denied and send_page_view false, and the policy scopes Analytics to accepted cookies, with an Accept All / Reject All banner present in the markup. Contact route: geardex.app publishes no MX (DNS returns only the SOA for the apex), so the address on every page and in the submission - geardex.help@gmail.com - is the working route, not a @geardex.app address. Domain registered 2025-06-28 with Namecheap on Vercel DNS, 16 months old at the check. The privacy policy describes iPhone and Android apps that are not shipped - /download offers Safari Add to Home Screen for iPhone, lists no Android app and carries no App Store or Play link - and that discrepancy is recorded in cons rather than treated as a blocker. Vendor usage claims (300+ photographers, 6,100+ items tracked, $722K+ managed) are unverified by us. No purchase or account was created and no checkout was exercised.

Free with ads; Premium is an in-app subscription sold only by the app stores. The vendor's own site publishes no price at all - no currency or price token appears on /en/, /zh-cn/, /zh-tw/, /ja/, /de/ or the root page, and its FAQ describes only an "optional yearly Premium plan". Store figures: App Store in-app purchases Yearly Premium $29.99 and Monthly Premium $2.99; Google Play in-app purchases listed as "$2.99 - $29.00 per item". No refund policy is published on the vendor's domain (/Info/refundPolicy and /en/refund-policy both 404), so store policy governs billing. Premium unlocks ad removal, unlimited AI entry, bill import, Android Smart Notification Entry, app lock, extra books and team books.

Submitted via form by the vendor 2026-10-23 03:33 UTC (2026-10-22 20:33 PDT); editorial entry written independently from live pages on the site's Pacific working date 2026-10-22. The submitted summary's own claim that no privacy page exists is only partly right: /privacy, /en/privacy, /en/privacy-policy and /privacy-policy all 404, but the Privacy Policy served at /Info/privacyPolicy returns 200 and is the exact URL both store listings cite as the app's policy - the marketing site simply never links it (no legal, contact or terms link appears in any of the 45 locales; the footer is "(c) Money Tracker" and no email address appears anywhere on the site). No Terms of Service exists on the domain: /terms, /terms.html, /en/terms, /terms-of-service, /en/terms-of-service, /legal, /agreement, /Info/agreement, /eula, /Info/eula, /Info/terms and /Info/termsAndConditions all 404, while the notice states the terms used have the same meanings as in "our Terms and Conditions, which are accessible at Money Tracker". Notice content verified in full: effective 2023-03-09, contact freemanzk@163.com, third parties named as Google Play Services, Apple Services, AdMob, Firebase Analytics, Crashlytics, Facebook and Adjust, GDPR/CCPA rights sections, no retention periods, no controller postal address or governing law, and no mention of financial information, receipt or bill images, voice recordings, notification content or any AI processor - while Google Play's Data safety declares collection of "Personal info, Financial info and 2 others" and sharing of "Personal info and Device or other IDs", and Apple's App Privacy label (declared by the developer, unverified by Apple) lists Identifiers used to track you and Purchase History, Other User Content, User ID and Device ID linked to the user. The notice also calls the service "an Ad Supported app" "provided ... at no cost" against live in-app purchases, and its CCPA section refers to a "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" section or web page that is not published. Both stores verified as the same product and operator: Google Play com.freeman.moneymanager, 5M+ installs, 4.8 stars from about 324K reviews, updated 2026-10-21, developer account Horoscope365, developer block naming Zheng Kui with a Beijing postal address and support address freemanzk@163.com, website field money.quhou123.com; App Store id6444122615, 4.8 from 414 ratings, seller Zheng Kui, category Finance, Privacy Policy field the same /Info/privacyPolicy URL, in-app purchases $29.99 yearly and $2.99 monthly. Domain quhou123.com registered 2018-02-28 via Alibaba Cloud (Beijing), nameservers vip3/vip4.alidns.com, A record 161.117.61.56 (Alibaba Cloud), and no MX records - so no @quhou123.com mailbox can receive mail and the published 163.com address plus the Gmail used for the submission are the only working routes. The operator's horoscope site www.quhou123.com is live and is the origin of the Horoscope365 publisher name. Name checked: 'Money Tracker' is a crowded descriptive name across both stores rather than a brand dispute, and the App Store description body still calls the product 'Money Manager' while the store title says Money Tracker.
