Read full description

Most budget apps tell you WHAT you spent. Worth It tells you whether it was worth it. Every time you log a purchase, you answer one tiny question - was it worth it? Loved it, meh, or regret - and that single tap turns your spending into something you can actually feel and learn from. No bank logins. No spreadsheets. No guilt. Just a calmer, more honest relationship with your money. HOW IT WORKS - Log a spend in 5 seconds - amount, category, done. - Tap one face: did it feel worth it, just okay, or a regret? - That's it. Worth It does the rest. YOUR WORTH-IT % See how much of your spending actually felt worth it this month - not just the dollar total. Discover you regret subscriptions but never regret coffee, and cut the right things. Watch it trend up or down month over month. CHECK BEFORE YOU BUY Thinking about a purchase? The Check tab turns any price into hours of your life up front - so you decide before you spend, not after. HOURS OF YOUR LIFE Tell Worth It what you earn (hourly, monthly, or yearly - your choice, totally optional) and every purchase shows what it really cost: a $140 buy isn't $140, it's 5 hours of your life. YOUR MONTHLY MONEY TYPE At the end of each month, get your money personality - Joyful Spender, Disciplined, Treat-Yourself, and more - based on how your spending actually felt. Shareable, fun, and a little revealing. BUILD THE HABIT - A spending log grouped by day - Today, Yesterday, and back - so your month reads like a story. - Keep a daily streak going; a gentle reminder (you pick the time) nudges you to log. - Edit, re-rate, or delete any spend with a tap or swipe. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - No bank connections, ever. - Your data syncs only across your own devices via iCloud - we never see it. - No ads. No account. No tracking. ALSO INCLUDED - Home-screen widget showing your worth-it % at a glance. - Multi-currency support. - A clean, calm, dark interface designed to make money feel less stressful. Worth It is free. Start spending on what's actually worth it.

Sonem is an expense tracker that stays on your phone. Amount, category, done — with instant category totals, budgets and savings goals, and no account to create, ever. WHY SONEM IS DIFFERENT Most finance apps start by asking for your bank login. Sonem never asks — there's no sign-up, no cloud sync, no bank linking. Everything you log lives on your device and nowhere else, and the app works fully offline. Manual entry is deliberate. Typing the amount takes a few seconds, and that small moment is the point: you notice what you spend. Noticing is how spending changes. WHAT YOU GET - Fast manual logging — amount, category, done - Instant category totals with a six-month breakdown - Monthly budgets with progress you can read at a glance - Savings goals you add toward as you go - Full history, filterable by category, day, week, month, or year - A daily streak that keeps the logging habit alive - Income and expenses side by side - Categories you can rename and re-emoji — changes apply everywhere, instantly PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE Privacy isn't a setting in Sonem — it's the structure. Your financial data never leaves your phone. With no account, there's nothing to breach and nothing to sell. You don't have to trust a privacy policy; there's simply nothing to collect it from. BUILT FOR A DAILY RITUAL Open, log, close. Sonem is designed around a daily check-in that takes seconds — the streak keeps you honest, the category bars show the shape of your month, and the budgets tell you when to ease off. No dashboards to configure. No reports to export. Just you, your numbers, and a habit that compounds. Take control of what you spend — and keep it to yourself.
