Could you build this?
Partial Building the UI and database is easy, but reliably parsing unstructured and ever-changing transactional SMS formats across dozens of Indian banks while maintaining strict on-device privacy is notoriously tricky.
What it would actually take: An Android application (Kotlin) utilizing SMS BroadcastReceivers to read incoming texts. The core difficulty is maintaining a resilient regex/heuristic parser engine for dozens of Indian bank SMS schemas that frequently change formats, alongside handling Google Play's extremely strict SMS permission policies.
