CashEnvelope vs Sprig Money

Digital envelopes, kitchen-table simple. CashEnvelope brings the classic cash-stuffing method to your iPhone — no bank link, no account, no analytics. Stuff your paycheck into envelopes for Rent, Groceries, Fun, and Savings, watch the liquid fill bars tick down as you spend, and stay in control of every dollar. WHAT YOU CAN DO: • Envelope Wall — every envelope on one screen with live liquid-fill cards (green on track, amber near limit, red over budget) • Add Transactions — log spending in two taps, see the wall update instantly • Pace Forecast — projects each envelope's end-of-month landing before you actually overspend • Roll-Over Behavior — choose roll, reset, or bank-to-savings at month end, per envelope or globally • Monthly Overview — pie chart of where your money went, plus trend lines • CSV Export — every envelope and every transaction in one shareable file • Auto-Allocate Paycheck — define a paycheck template once, tap "Receive Paycheck", and watch every envelope fill automatically by % or fixed amount • Daily Reminder — gentle local notification to log yesterday's spending • Local Currency — formats automatically to your device locale WHY CASHENVELOPE IS DIFFERENT: The big envelope-budgeting apps (YNAB, Goodbudget, EveryDollar, Mvelopes) all want $10–$18 a month, a login, and a bank connection through Plaid. Reddit and the App Store are full of "Plaid disconnected again" complaints and "lost my data when my subscription lapsed" reviews. CashEnvelope skips all of that. No email signup. No bank link. No cloud sync. Your envelopes live on your iPhone, in SwiftData, and nowhere else. If you cancel, your data stays. If you go offline, the app works. If you want privacy, you have it. CASHENVELOPE PREMIUM — $2.99/month (7-day free trial): • Roll-Over Behavior (roll, reset, or bank to savings) • Smart Forecast Alerts with tunable warning + critical thresholds • Monthly Overview pie chart + trends • One-CSV Export (envelopes + transactions) • Auto-Allocate Paycheck (one-tap distribute by % or $) • Ad-Free Free forever: unlimited envelopes, unlimited transactions, live fill bars, daily reminders. We don't gate the basics. PERFECT FOR: Couples and roommates splitting expenses, parents teaching the envelope method to teens, freelancers tracking variable income, anyone tired of bank-link apps breaking every other week, and the cash-stuffing community looking for a private digital companion.

Get paid. Enter the number. Sprig splits it before you have time to talk yourself out of saving any of it. No budgeting app to maintain. No transactions to categorize. No bank account to link. Sprig does one thing: the moment your paycheck lands, it divides that amount into four buckets using a simple percentage rule, so the decision is already made before you open your other apps. HOW IT WORKS Pick a rule. Default is 20/10/60/10 — Growth, Stability, Essentials, Enjoyment. Prefer 50/30/20 or 70/20/10? They're built in. Or set your own percentages and make it yours. Enter your paycheck. Type the number. See four amounts instantly. Save it. Done in seconds, not sessions. Working two jobs? Add another check and Sprig splits the combined total the same way. FOUR SCREENS, FOUR JOBS Split — Enter what you were paid. See exactly what goes to Growth, Stability, Essentials, and Enjoyment. Save the paycheck and move on with your day. Grow — Watch what your Growth bucket becomes over time. Scrub out to any horizon and see money put in versus interest earned, side by side. It's a projection, not a promise. Fit — Tell Sprig your real monthly bills. It checks them against what your rule allots for essentials and gives you a plain answer: it fits, or it's tight. No spreadsheet required. History — Every payday you've saved, stacked in one place. Watch the total climb, check by check. WHO THIS IS FOR You get paid weekly or biweekly. You don't want to learn a budgeting system, track every purchase, or link your bank account to an app. You want the decision made in the time it takes to read a text message, then you want to get on with your life. That's what Sprig does — nothing more, nothing less. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything lives on your device. No account. No sign-up. No bank linking. No transaction import. Your paycheck numbers never leave your phone. Sprig is free to use, with ads. A one-time purchase removes them for good — no subscription. A NOTE ON THE NUMBERS Grow shows estimates based on the rate and contributions you enter. Real returns vary and aren't guaranteed. Nothing in this app is financial advice — it's a rough picture of what steady saving can look like over time, so you can decide what to do next. Get paid. Open Sprig. Split it. Get back to your life.
