Turn your monthly salary into visible daily progress. “SalaryBuddy” is a self-motivation tool designed for salaried workers. Simply input your monthly salary and number of working days to instantly calculate your daily and hourly pay, even down to per-second earnings. The home screen clearly shows how much you’ve earned today and how much you’ve accumulated this month, so your salary is no longer just a distant number. Wishlist: turn saving into a roadmap Add goals you want to achieve and set a target amount, along with your monthly saving ratio. The app converts this into a daily savings pace and visualizes your progress with a progress bar, so you can feel yourself getting closer every day. When you reach your goal, you’ll get a reminder to mark it as purchased, giving your achievement a satisfying finish. Timer mode: watch time turn into money Based on your set work start time and daily hours, the app shows real-time accumulated earnings and per-second income. Perfect for days when you need tangible feedback, not empty motivation, but small, visible wins. Notifications: a gentle push at the right time Set daily end-of-work reminders, goal completion alerts, and Monday motivation nudges. You can customize or turn them off anytime, switch them on only when you need that extra encouragement. Zero barrier to start No sign-up or login required for new users. Your data stays on your device by default. If cloud backup or multi-device sync is introduced in the future, it will be optional, so you stay in control. Privacy & disclaimer This app does not connect to banks and does not support transfers, investments, or any financial transactions. All displayed amounts are estimations for motivation and self-management purposes only, and do not represent actual income or assets. Please refer to your payslips, bank accounts, and real expenses for accuracy. If work feels draining, but you don’t want your days to be defined only by that, start today, and make every hour you work feel a little more tangible.
