About Zaicho: Japan Asset Ledger
Zaicho is a private property inventory you keep to yourself - no cloud, no bank linking, no account. MADE FOR JAPAN - PLEASE READ FIRST Amounts are recorded in Japanese yen (JPY) only; there is no currency setting. The inheritance-tax figure follows Japanese tax law: the basic deduction of 30,000,000 JPY plus 6,000,000 JPY per statutory heir, the Japanese rate table and the statutory shares. Zaicho is built for assets held in Japan and for people who file, or expect to file, in Japan. It does not model any other country's estate or inheritance tax. FREE - Ledger for cash and deposits, listed stocks and funds, bonds and insurance - Real estate at the market value you enter - Monthly snapshots that chart your net worth over time - Backup and restore as a JSON file that is yours FULL ACCESS - ONE-TIME PURCHASE - Further asset classes: unlisted shares, precious metals, art - Property inventory as PDF - Inheritance-tax estimate (simulation for personal use) - CSV export Buy once, keep it. No subscription, no ads. PRIVACY Every calculation and every record stays on the device. No account, no analytics, and no network access other than the App Store purchase itself. DISCLAIMER The figure shown is a rough estimate of the total inheritance tax. It does not reflect the spousal credit, the small-scale residential land provision or other special deductions, so it differs from an actual filing. For a filing, consult a certified tax accountant. Zaicho is a general informational and educational tool; it neither recommends nor solicits financial products and gives no tax or investment advice.
What’s new
Version 1.1 · Updated August 22, 2026
What's new in 1.1 - Zaicho now speaks 33 languages, and the store page states plainly that amounts are in Japanese yen and that the estimate follows Japanese inheritance-tax law. - Backup and restore as a JSON file - free for everyone, so a new phone no longer means starting over. - Past monthly records can be corrected or deleted. - Swiping a half-finished sheet away no longer discards your input without asking. - Deleting an asset now asks first and can be undone. - Restoring a purchase tells you what happened, and the purchase screen explains itself when the App Store cannot be reached. - Buttons meet contrast requirements in dark mode, and Japanese counters no longer appear in other languages. - Exported files are named by date, and Settings can erase all data.
