Stop impulse buying before it costs you. Burn My Desire prices a craving as what the money would be worth invested over twenty years — then lets you burn it. HOW IT WORKS Name the desire. A photo, a link, or a sentence. €429 headphones counts. So does €40 of drinks every Friday, and so does the thing you keep reopening at 1am. See the real price. Not the sticker price — what it takes from the thing you're actually saving for, and what the money becomes if it stays invested instead. Burn it. Hold your thumb down. A real burning front eats across the photo at 60fps, curls the edge, and leaves ash. The craving ends with it. WHAT YOU KEEP • Every euro you didn't spend, counted • What it's worth invested, over the horizon you choose • Streaks, spending weak spots, and where the money actually leaks PRIVACY, PROPERLY No account, ever. No sign-up, no email, no password. There's no server, so there is nothing an account could unlock. Encrypted where it lives. The database is encrypted with a key held in the iOS Keychain. Photos and thoughts are sealed with complete data protection. Erase means erase. One confirmed tap destroys the database, the images and the key. Nothing to recover, because nothing was copied. PRO Unlimited desires, every burn effect now and future, custom return rates and horizons, wealth-protected analytics and backup. Free forever for three desires at a time. SUBSCRIPTION Pro is available as a yearly or monthly auto-renewable subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. • Yearly — €14.99, with a 7-day free trial • Monthly — €2.99 • Lifetime — €29.99, one payment, no renewal Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions.

This is not investment advice. Burn My Desire is a ritual, not a treatment. If an addiction is hurting your health, relationships or life, talking to a doctor or therapist is a power move — not a defeat.
