I love this app! It has made me rich, if you don’t get it you’re a sucker and I can’t help you

Life changing

What an app, I never thought I would break my spending habits. Was sure I would continue my life in squalor. Then came impause, now I am heavily invested in the S&P, own a string on rental properties and just bought my wife (who is with me for my newfound riches) a Burkin. Thanks impause!

Helpful budgeting

Super helpful because it is so different from a regular budgeting app. The purchase pulse is easy, fun, and helps me to rethink why I spend on what I do. The modules are informative and since they can be long I like to be able to take time/ go through them on my time without being made to finish them all at once

Money hungry app and too much on-boarding also barely works

Hard paywall is ridiculous, you can’t use the app unless you pay & they force you to with a 2 week free trial (The reason it’s 2 weeks is so users forgot to cancel it and get charged) and onboarding is junk. This app is pointless, most banking apps and credit card apps have a spending tracker built in. DO NOT GET.

Response from developer

Hey Jason — thanks for the candid review. You're right that banks and credit card apps have spending trackers. They've had them for years. And yet impulse spending & overspending keeps growing. That's because tracking isn't the problem — understanding why you spend is. impause is a behavioral & psychological approach to spend management, not another dashboard of charts. On the paywall: we charge because we don't sell user financial data, run ads in the app, or take affiliate kickbacks on the products you're trying to stop buying. That costs money. The 2-week trial exists so you can actually use the product before deciding, and you can cancel anytime directly in your Apple subscription settings — we don't control that flow. Fair point on onboarding feeling long. We're working on it.

Love this app

Love this app! Has helped me to stop impulse buying and learn about what purchases actually make my life better vs causes regrets

Game changer

This app is so easy to use and took 2 minutes from downloading it to setting up my first personal spending goal!

The first app that actually changed my spending habits

I’ve tried every budgeting app out there. They all track your spending. They all show you charts. But none of them actually changed how I behave.

impause is different!

Instead of just telling me where my money went, it helped me understand why I was spending in the first place. Rating my purchases, seeing my regret patterns, and working through the short psychology-based lessons genuinely made me pause before buying.

It doesn’t feel like a spreadsheet. It feels like a coach.

For the first time, I’m not just tracking my money — I’m actually changing my habits. If you struggle with impulse spending, this is the app that finally makes it click.
