Set one weekly allowance, see how much is safe to spend today, and stay on top of everyday spending without turning budgeting into a spreadsheet. Use WeekSpend to set a weekly budget and week start day, see Today's Safe to Spend, Weekly Left, and your daily average, add expenses in seconds with everyday categories, and review past weeks before overspending gets out of hand. WeekSpend is built for coffee, food, groceries, commuting, shopping, and other flexible expenses, not rent, bills, subscriptions, debt, or full account-based finance.

WeekSpend Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks category insights, advanced date filters, more and custom categories, widgets, and optional iCloud sync.

About

Wren

Read full description

Know what you can spend, before you spend it. Wren makes everyday spending decisions fast and simple. Set spending limits and track against them. Features: • Easy setup • Fast expense logging • Daily, weekly, biweekly, and monthly budgets • Carry over unspent funds, so what you save today rolls into tomorrow • One-time budgets for specific date ranges (like a vacation or weekend getaway) • Data is kept safe on-device and in iCloud • iCloud syncing across your devices • No internet connection required unless using iCloud syncing This is not a business expense tracker, tax receipt logger, or complicated budgeting system. I don't link your bank accounts or give you fancy graphs. I want to offer a simple tool that focuses on a few habits, not your whole financial life. To use this app effectively, you just need to think of one or two regular spending habits that you want to improve (food, coffee/tea, nightlife, clothes, etc.). Then think of the maximum you want to spend every day, week, two weeks, or month. After you add these budgets to the app and start tracking your expenses, you'll be able to make wiser spending decisions in real time. Download Wren and make every day easier.
