One number. Every week. Weekly turns your whole budget (income, bills, savings goals) into a single Safe-to-Spend amount for the week. No categories to balance. No spreadsheets. Stay under your number and you're on track. That's the whole system. MOST BUDGETS ASK TOO MUCH Tracking a dozen categories sounds organized. In practice, it's the reason people quit. Weekly asks for one number and does the math for you. HOW IT WORKS 1. Build your budget. Add your income and your recurring expenses: rent, car payment, subscriptions, utilities, anything fixed. A guided setup walks you through it. 2. Spend by the week. Whatever's left becomes your Safe-to-Spend. Stay under it, roll the leftover into savings, and start fresh on Monday. 3. Connect your bank. Transactions sync automatically from 10,000+ U.S. banks and credit unions through Plaid. Weekly can even spot recurring bills in your transactions and add them to your budget. Rather log by hand? That works too. Not paid weekly? Most people aren't. Enter your income however it really arrives (every two weeks, twice a month, monthly or variable) and Weekly turns it into a weekly number automatically. EVERYTHING YOU NEED. NOTHING YOU DON'T. • Safe-to-Spend, always visible: right on the home screen and your lock screen widget, updated as transactions clear. • Bills, on the calendar: see what's due and when, get a heads-up before due dates, and spot anything past due at a glance. • Funds & savings goals: pick a target and a date, set aside a little each week, and watch it stack up. • Spending tracker: a live picture of where your money's going, without forcing you to categorize every coffee. • Couples: share one budget with your partner. Each of you keeps your own login. • Every balance in one place: checking, savings and credit cards, side by side. REAL PEOPLE, REAL WEEKS "This is the accountant I can't afford telling me what I can and cannot spend every week." (Twopicki1212) "Probably the most important app my wife and I have." (leajere) "Has made budgeting effortless and so easy to follow. For the first time I am able to stay on track." (AllyCat1217) Join 350,000+ people budgeting by the week. YOUR DATA, PROTECTED Bank connections run through Plaid and are read-only. Weekly never sees your bank password and can't move money. Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and it's never sold. Want out? Delete your account from Settings and we'll permanently erase everything. THE BUDGET YOU'LL ACTUALLY STICK WITH Weekly is free to try, and setup takes about ten minutes. Upgrade to Weekly PRO for unlimited bank syncing, Funds and advanced reports. Weekly PRO subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage your subscription and turn off auto-renewal in your Apple Account settings. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Weekly at 83% against Allot's 33%. Weekly also leads on rating (4.8 vs 2.0) and ratings volume (3.9K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
