Minimal, nice color scheme, and as a visual person, nice to see the streak of no spend days! The verbiage in the app is very kind and supportive, no shaming for breaking a streak. Thank you for creating this! ### 5/5 — So useful to visualize everything *2026-01-08, version 2511.08.4* I’m very excited to keep using this app moving forward into the new year to help keep track of how impulsively I want to spend. I am trying to move away from consumption as a lifestyle. ### 5/5 — Amazing tool! *2026-01-03, version 2511.08.4* This is great! I love this app. ### 5/5 — This app has changed my spending habits *2026-01-03, version 2511.08.4* For the first month, I was able to see exactly how much money I didn’t spend on things I wanted. It really helps me pause before I buy. Download it if you want to be more disciplined in your spending. ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2026-01-02, version 2511.08.3* This app has been super helpful for me in my No buy journey. It’s very simple and has exactly what I need to track my progress. ### 5/5 — Amazing app for a 2026 no buy *2025-12-25, version 2511.08.2* I’ve been using this app for 2 months now and it does exactly what I need it to - it lets me upload pictures of items I didn’t buy but wanted to and track the money saved as a result. It also lets me track no spend days and create wishlists. I enjoy supporting this independent app/passion project and the lovely creator and developer, Kat - I’ve sent some app recommendations and Kat has been very responsive to my feedback! Must have for your no-buy or low-buy 2026! Thank you, Kat! ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-11-23, version 2511.08.2* I wish there was a way to delete a goal. I tried submitting a feature request on the app but I am unable to verify my email address with the verification code provided. Thank you. ### 5/5 — helps reduce impulse purchases *2025-10-09, version 2508.26.0* I really like the minimalist and straight forward approached the app. It’s easy to use, and I appreciate how it’s free (unlike other apps), so that you’re not spending money on while trying to save money. I do think it would be helpful to be able to select what kind of item something is (clothes, books, etc), but the app is wonderful the way it is! ### 5/5 — Cute & Simple *2025-10-04, version 2508.26.0* Love how this app is simple & cute! I like the ability to customize what purchases you’re avoiding (ex. Buying coffee out, shopping, etc.). ### 5/5 — Highly recommended! *2025-08-22, version 2025.08.17* Very helpful and allows me to track my impulse spending and progress towards a frugal lifestyle ### 5/5 — Fantastic Tracker *2025-08-02, version 2.3.1* I’ve been looking to keep track of no buy / low buy days to reduce the amount of impulse buys I make. I love the no-buy item reflection section where I can add items that tempted me and can then deinfluence myself why I don’t need it. It also gives me the option to look back at those items if I do find myself wanting to purchase something, so I can prioritize buying something I’ve really thought over and not an impulse buy. ### 5/5 — Simple and effective *2025-06-04, version 2.2.0* Won’t replace actual budgeting but it’s a good log for shopaholics who are guilty of forgetting how often they treat themselves. ### 5/5 — Exactly what I need *2025-05-29, version 2.2.0* I love the "things I didn't buy" list and the fact you can see how much you saved by not buying those things. ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-04-26, version 2.0.0* Love this app! Easy to use and I love the interface ### 5/5 — Motivational Not Spend *2025-03-29, version 1.1.1* Really wanted to do a “No Buy” challenge, and I can see this is already motivating me to not buy impulsively online. I already saved $70 in one day. You can set a goal for the month, and add your info, notes of why you did not purchase the item. That’s very helpful to see my tally increasing. I put the money I didn’t spend in savings. This is a very simple straightforward Ap and it’s great! Thank you ### 5/5 — No spend challenge *2025-03-10, version 1.0.1* K ### 5/5 — It’s that simple ! *2025-03-05, version 1.0.1* Very effective and intuitive app. I am definitly seeing some changes and my bank account aswell ! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 4/5 — Almost perfect *2026-05-30, version 2602.26.0* Almost perfect, but catch-up check ins should count towards your streak. ### 4/5 — Currency *2026-05-22, version 2602.26.0* App is good, but no INR currency is available, unable to use due to it. ### 4/5 — Très bien, mais… *2025-04-18, version 1.1.1* Il manque quelques petits trucs comme par exemple rajouter l’euro. Pouvoir mettre plusieurs rappels, par exemple un rappel le matin qui nous rappellerait de ne pas dépenser et un le soir pour le check-in. Faire un petit questionnaire pour que quand j’ai envie d’acheter quelques chose sous le coup de l’impulsion, je puisse me remettre en question. Sinon l’application est très bien et très simple 👍 ### 5/5 — Easy and supportive *2026-08-10, version 2602.26.0* Mallow is fantastic. I’ve been using it for over a year and it has helped me stay very accountable with my goals. This was exactly what I was looking for when deep into my journey of improving my finances. At a time when so many things felt overwhelming, Mallow was simple, supportive, and gave me something to look forward to when following through on my no-spend commitments. It is still continuing to support me in living debt free and deters impulse purchasing. I love being able to see my month from a Birds Eye view and assess my patterns and wins. I will continue to use Mallow daily and keep sharing with friends and family. Can’t recommend it enough! 😊 ### 5/5 — Love the app but not the subscription *2026-08-02, version 2602.26.0* I think it shouldn’t be a subscription as everything is a subscription which can be really annoying. when you have to use that money for dentist bills or your essentials. I agree with the other comment left before me to pay once and have lifetime subscription. that’s what would make it different to other apps on the market. I think the subscription is what is putting people off as most people are flooded with them already. ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-05-19, version 2602.26.0* Super useful for tracking expenses day by day, sleek and minimal design, I love it! ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2026-05-01, version 2602.26.0* Super user-friendly and very helpful as someone who impulse buys on the regular ### 5/5 — Good app *2026-04-03, version 2602.26.0* Love the app but I have one input! I see that there’s a free version and the paid version. As a person who’s trying to reduce the spending (and as would the majority of the users be) I would not consider paying regular subscription. I can absolutely see the value in one time payment and would pay for it, but the subscription-based model is basically the opposite of the ethos of the app (at least in my mind). Overall, thanks for the app and thanks for providing a free version too. :) ### 5/5 — Glad someone finally made this *2026-02-20, version 2602.08.0* I didn’t think an app like this existed, which caused me to rely on either tracker apps or apps made for substance addictions. I would switch between those apps plus my notes app with journal prompts to help me filter through purchases. This app has everything I need, including some of the prompts I’ve seen on Reddit forums. I’m really glad this app was made because it’s helpful to those specifically with overspending and overconsumption issues. It’s been eye opening and super helpful. ### 5/5 — A MUST for all those who want to save! *2026-02-19, version 2602.08.0* I needed an app like this, and this was fully what I was looking for! The app is clean, simple, and easy to use. I’ve already saved so much money, and being able to track my progress with this app has been the biggest motivator. ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ryan *2026-02-05, version 2511.08.4* Priest ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-02-03, version 2511.08.4* I have a shopping problem, and I’ve always struggled to control impulse buying tied to my emotions. This app has seriously helped me so much, it helps me actually visualize how much money im saving, and the wishlist feature is awesome with the timer. I love how adding a link puts the picture of what you want on the entry, it’s pretty and so easy to visualize everything. Truly an amazing passion project app, I recommend it to my fellow shopaholics-in-recovery all the time! ### 5/5 — exactly what i was looking for!! *2026-01-12, version 2511.08.4* such a seamless, simple app. i love the interface and how it works!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
