Could you build this?
Partial A basic client UI is straightforward, but building a robust serverless, peer-to-peer family sync using Apple MultipeerConnectivity, CloudKit/Keychain, and offline CRDT conflict resolution is technically intricate.
What it would actually take: Requires native iOS/Swift development leveraging Apple's MultipeerConnectivity framework, CoreBluetooth/Wi-Fi Direct, and cryptographic receipt verification against App Store Server/StoreKit entitlements. The critical difficulty is building a reliable peer-to-peer discovery protocol and distributed conflict-free replicated data types (CRDTs) that synchronize budgets and receipts seamlessly without an authoritative central database.
