## What is Safe To Spend?

Never wonder "Can I afford this?" again

SafeToSpend is the simple budgeting app that answers one question: "How much can I safely spend today?" No complicated categories, no overwhelming charts, just a clear daily budget that helps you stay on track between paychecks.

How It Works:

1. Enter your paycheck amount and payday schedule
2. Add your scheduled expenses (rent, subscriptions, bills)
3. See your safe-to-spend amount for today

SafeToSpend automatically calculates how much money you have left after bills, then divides it across the days until your next paycheck. As you record spending, your daily budget adjusts to keep you on track.
