## What is Buy Me Later?

Buy Me Later is a calm pause before buying.
Add what you want, set a delay, come back later, and decide when the impulse has cooled.

Online shopping makes it easy to decide in the loudest moment: when the item feels useful, deserved, discounted, or urgent. Buy Me Later gives you a private space between “I want this now” and “I’m buying it.”

HOW IT WORKS

1. Add an item
Save the product manually with a name, price, optional link, reason, and photo.

2. Set a pause
Choose a delay period before making the decision.

3. Get reminded later
A local notification brings the item back when the pause ends.

4. Reflect
Ask yourself simple questions:
• Do I still want this as much?
• Will I use it soon?
• Does it solve a real problem?
• Would I still want it without the pressure of the moment?

5. Decide calmly
Choose to buy, skip, or postpone. Any decision is okay — the point is that it is no longer made at the peak of the impulse.
