 Hello Geert,  I can investigate how to read the database using the code base. My app is a viewer, so "read only". I have been using gnucash since 2015, but have not at all looked at the code base. I can probably succeed with some effort if the code is in C or C++ language.

Ok. That's fair.

 

Do note GnuCash supports database storage as well as xml and will likely switch to database (sqlite3) as primary storage format somewhere in the future.

 

Also note the data format can change from major release to major release. So if you're not using the gnucash engine code to parse the data files you will have to keep up with these changes over time on your own.

 

Other than that it's still cool to see a gnucash compatible ios app.

 

Regards,

 

Geert
