Left vs Pouch

One number tells you what's left to spend today. One envelope holds the big bills — rent, subs, loans. That's it. — — — Left. is a daily budget tracker for people who tried YNAB and gave up, tried spreadsheets and got bored on day three, tried mental math and lost track on day one. It works on a single, honest idea: pour everything you have into a period, set aside the big bills into an envelope, and what remains is yours to spend, divided by days. One screen. One number. No charts. No categories. No streaks, no badges, no nudges. Nothing to maintain. When you need to dip into the reserve — hold the envelope. The envelope breaks open. You take what you need. It seals back. — — — How it works: 01 Pick a period — a month, a week, three days, a trip. 02 Pour in the amount — everything you have for that period. 03 Set the envelope aside — the big bills that have to wait. 04 See what's left — one number on the home screen, every day. — — — What's not in here: — No syncing with banks. — No machine learning categorisation. — No social feed of how friends spend. — No subscription, no upsell, no premium tier. What is in here: — A blank page that opens on a number. — A reserve sealed in an envelope, opened with a long press. — A ledger that remembers every tap. — One hand. One thumb. One number a day. — — — Left. by Koodalabs

Pouch is envelope budgeting the way cash used to work — minus the cash. On payday, you stuff your envelopes: groceries, rent, fun money. Spend from an envelope and watch it drain. When it's empty, it's empty — that's the whole system, and it works. ONE NUMBER THAT MATTERS Safe to Spend sits at the top of your shelf: what's actually left until your next paycheck, after bills. No charts to decode. STUFFING DAY The payday ritual. Your paycheck lands, your plan is ready, and stuffing your envelopes takes fifteen satisfying seconds. LOG A PURCHASE IN THREE TAPS Open, type, tap the envelope. Done. Even faster from the widget. SINKING FUNDS Save a little every paycheck toward the big stuff — holidays, tyres, Christmas. Pouch tells you if you're on track, honestly. BILLS THAT HANDLE THEMSELVES A month-at-a-glance calendar, reminders, optional auto-deduct, and one-tap mark-paid with undo.
