How much can you safely spend today? SpendLedger answers that question the moment you open it. Instead of just recording what you have already spent, it shows you a daily safe-to-spend amount, so you reach the end of the month without running out of money and still hit your savings goal. SpendLedger is a simple money manager that automatically works out how much you can spend each day. Enter your income and your fixed bills, set a savings goal, and the app subtracts what you need to keep and spreads the rest across the days left in the month. No receipt scanning, no complicated setup, just a clear answer to the question that actually matters: "Can I afford this today?" HOW IT WORKS Most finance apps only track money after it is gone. SpendLedger works the other way around: it tells you in advance how much is safe to use. Overspend a little one day and the app quietly recalculates the days ahead, so your monthly plan still adds up. No more staring at your bank balance with a knot in your stomach, just a calm and positive way to stay in control.

WHO IT IS FOR - Anyone living solo, splitting money as a couple, or running a family's finances - People who want to spend with confidence until the next payday - Anyone who struggles to save and tends to overspend - Those saving for a home, a trip, retirement or an emergency fund - People who want something simple instead of complicated spreadsheets - Students, recent grads and anyone starting their first job GETTING STARTED TAKES MINUTES 1.
