Wealthfolio

Free Investment Tracker Desktop App — Wealthfolio

Free desktop app to track investments and net worth — no cloud, no subscription, no account.

v3.4.0
May 2026
WindowsmacOSLinuxFreeOpen Source

Investment tracking apps almost always come with a catch: Empower (Personal Capital) offers free tools but earns by routing you toward wealth management upsells. Sharesight charges a monthly subscription that scales with portfolio size. Kubera costs $150 per year. Quicken bundles features you don't need into a recurring subscription. The common thread — your financial data funds someone else's business model.

Wealthfolio stores everything on your own machine. It's a desktop application built with Rust and Tauri on the backend and React on the frontend, meaning it runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux without Electron overhead. All data lives in a local SQLite database you control entirely — no registration, no sync to external servers, no telemetry.

The core workflow centers on accounts: add each brokerage or retirement account, log transactions manually or import from CSV, and Wealthfolio calculates your current holdings, total return, XIRR performance, and asset allocation breakdown. Dividend and interest income tracking builds a complete income history over time. Financial goal planning lets you model savings targets and track progress. Multi-currency support with exchange rate management handles international portfolios.

For developers or power users who prefer remote access, Wealthfolio also ships a Docker image and a REST API server for self-hosting as a web application. An addon system supports community-built extensions. Dark mode included. AGPL-3.0 licensed, actively updated with over 7,400 GitHub stars.

FAQ

Is Wealthfolio free?+
Yes, Wealthfolio is completely free and open source under the AGPL-3.0 license. There is no subscription, no premium tier, and no registration required. Download the desktop installer for Windows, macOS, or Linux and all data is stored locally on your machine with no cloud dependency.
How to track investments for free without a subscription?+
Download Wealthfolio from GitHub Releases for your operating system. Add your brokerage accounts, import transaction history as CSV files, and the app calculates your portfolio performance, asset allocation, and dividend income automatically. Everything runs locally — no account, no internet connection required after installation.
Best free alternative to Sharesight?+
Wealthfolio is the best free desktop alternative to Sharesight if you want to avoid cloud sync. Sharesight charges per portfolio and per user. Wealthfolio is free, runs entirely on your own machine, tracks stocks, ETFs, and crypto across multiple accounts, and includes dividend income reports. You give up automatic brokerage sync, but gain full data ownership.
Wealthfolio vs Ghostfolio — which is better?+
Both are free, open-source investment trackers. Wealthfolio is a desktop app — install it and it works immediately, no Docker or server setup needed. Ghostfolio is a web-based self-hosted app that requires Docker Compose but offers browser access from any device on your network. Wealthfolio is the easier choice for individuals; Ghostfolio suits users who want multi-device access or want to share a portfolio view.
