Features

Built around the work people actually need to finish.

Client + service memory

Saved clients autofill billing address, email, payment terms. Saved services (Web design, Tutoring hour, Headshot session) autofill price and description. New invoice from a returning client = 4 taps.

Multi-tax line items

Handle state + city sales tax stacking, GST, VAT, or no tax. Each line item can have its own tax rate. Common for US contractors invoicing across state lines.

Three professional templates

Clean, Branded (with logo + accent color), Minimal. All produce PDFs that look like they came from a real business — no "Made with Invoice Maker" watermark.

Payment status tracker

Sent → Viewed (when the recipient opens the email link) → Paid → Overdue. Dashboard shows what is outstanding at a glance. Send a polite "still outstanding" reminder in one tap.

Payment link generator

Add a Stripe, PayPal, Venmo, or Cash App pay link to the invoice so clients can pay in one tap. No Swarmval transaction fee — your existing accounts.

Export + send in one tap

PDF generates in under a second, attaches to a pre-filled email or iMessage to the client, and logs the send in your dashboard. No copy-paste, no separate Mail app step.

Privacy

Private by default, clear when sharing.

Invoice Maker stores invoices, clients, and payment data in your iCloud Drive — not on a Swarmval server. Payment links use your existing Stripe / PayPal / Venmo / Cash App accounts; Swarmval never sees the transaction. Email sending uses the iOS native Mail app, not a Swarmval relay. Swarmval does not collect, sell, or use invoice data for advertising.

FAQ
Do I really need an app to send invoices? +

No — a Word or Google Docs template + email works for a handful of invoices per year. The value of an app shows up around invoice 10+: saved clients (no retyping addresses), saved services (no retyping rates), status tracking (so you know who has not paid), and one-tap payment links. If you invoice once a quarter, skip the app. If you invoice weekly, the app pays for itself in time savings.

Is this a QuickBooks or FreshBooks replacement? +

No, and intentionally so. QuickBooks and FreshBooks are full accounting suites with bookkeeping, tax filing, expense tracking, and bank reconciliation. They cost $20–$35 per month for a reason. Invoice Maker covers only the invoicing side — sending professional PDFs and tracking who has paid. For freelancers and side hustles that do their taxes simply (Schedule C, no bookkeeper), this is enough. For incorporated small businesses, pair it with a bookkeeper or QuickBooks.

Will the IRS accept iPhone-generated invoice PDFs? +

Yes. The IRS does not specify how invoices must be created — only that they exist, are accurate, and are kept for at least 3 years (7 years for major audits). PDFs generated by Invoice Maker include the date, client, services, amounts, taxes, and payment terms — all the required fields. Save copies to iCloud, Dropbox, or print for archival.

Why are invoice apps so expensive on the App Store? +

Many App Store invoice apps charge $9.99–$19.99 per *week* — that weekly billing on a utility most freelancers use a few times a month is the fleeceware shape. The underlying PDF generation is a one-line iOS API call. Some legitimately complex business tools (QuickBooks, Bonsai, HelloBonsai) have monthly pricing for real accounting features and that’s fair. Invoice Maker has a simpler scope with Swarmval’s standard pricing: $4.99/month (3-day trial), $14.99/year, or $19.99 lifetime.

Can I track which invoices have been paid? +

Yes, in the Pro tier. Each invoice has four status flags: Sent (you emailed it), Viewed (the client opened the email link), Paid (you marked it), Overdue (past due date and unpaid). The dashboard groups overdue invoices for easy follow-up. Mark Paid is a manual tap — Invoice Maker does not auto-detect payments because it does not connect to your bank account.

Will my invoice data upload to a server? +

No. Invoices, clients, and payment links are stored in your iCloud Drive — using your Apple iCloud account, not Swarmval’s. Email sending uses the iOS native Mail app. Payment links use your direct Stripe / PayPal / Venmo / Cash App accounts. Swarmval has no copy of your client list, your rates, or your revenue. You can verify by enabling Airplane Mode — invoice creation still works; only sending pauses.
