Most people lose over $1,200 a year to spending they never even noticed. Not on rent. Not on bills. On the small stuff — the $4 coffee, the impulse tap, the "it's just this once." Money doesn't disappear in big moments. It leaks, quietly, while you're looking the other way. Growlt was built to stop the leak. ——— A TRACKER THAT FEELS LIKE A GAME ——— Type "coffee 4" and you're done. Growlt auto-categorizes every expense across Food, Transport, Shopping, Bills, Fun, Health, Tech, and Home. No spreadsheets. No 12-field forms. No guilt. Every time you log, you earn XP. Every day you show up, your streak grows. And as your habits level up, so does your rank — from Sprout, to Saver, to Strategist, Tycoon, Mogul, and finally Legend. People who track daily save twice as much. Growlt makes sure you're one of them. ——— COMPETE WITH A COMMUNITY THAT ACTUALLY SHOWS UP ——— You're not tracking alone. Growlt has a live leaderboard and a real-time activity feed — when others log an expense, you see it. When you log one, they see you. It sounds small. It isn't. Accountability is the difference between "I'll start Monday" and "I've tracked 47 days in a row." Climb the ranks. Unlock badges. Build a streak worth protecting. ——— SMART WARNINGS BEFORE YOU OVERSPEND ——— Growlt watches your spending pattern against your payday and gently warns you the moment things drift — at 50%, 80%, and 90% of your budget. No shame. No red alarms. Just a heads-up, early enough to change the outcome. Daily targets break your budget into bite-sized caps so "making it to payday" stops being guesswork. ——— BUILT FOR REAL LIFE ——— • Multi-currency support — $, €, £, ₹, and more • Daily reminder at the time you choose • iOS Shortcuts integration — route bank SMS notifications straight into Growlt, so expenses log themselves • Beautiful dark and light themes • Works offline, syncs when you're back • Delete everything, anytime, with one tap ——— PREMIUM: SEE WHERE YOUR MONEY ACTUALLY GOES ——— Upgrade to Growlt Premium and unlock the insights dashboard: weekly spending trends, category deep-dives, and the patterns your past self was hiding from you. Start with a 3-day free trial. Cancel anytime. ——— PRIVACY YOU CAN TRUST ——— Your data is yours. No ads. No selling. Secure storage. Delete your account and everything vanishes — no follow-ups, no "are you sure" loops. ——— Three months from now, you'll either still be wondering where the money went — or you'll know exactly, down to the dollar, and you'll have a streak to prove it. The leaderboard is already filling up. Download Growlt. Start your streak today. — — — Subscription details: Growlt Premium is offered as an auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at purchase confirmation. Subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
