Budgeting that finally makes sense. Most apps show you where your money went. Potshare helps you decide where it goes next by splitting one budget across separate savings pots, so every goal you care about grows at the same time. Think of your pots like digital envelopes. You choose how much you can save each payday, and Potshare divides it across all of them automatically. Your holiday, your rent buffer, your emergency fund, all moving forward together, each with its own finish date. ONE BUDGET, MANY POTS Give every pound a place to go. Set what you save each week, fortnight or month, and Potshare splits it across your goals instantly. No spreadsheets. No maths. SAVE TOGETHER Create a shared Together pot and invite friends, family or housemates. Everyone chips in toward the same goal, sees the total climb in real time, and keeps each other going with built-in chat and reactions. Perfect for group trips, shared gifts, rent, or a joint safety net. NO BANK CONNECTION, EVER Potshare never links to your bank or sees your balance. It is a private planner you control. No account numbers, no open banking, no risk. REACH GOALS FASTER See exactly when each pot will be full, get gentle payday reminders, and keep a complete history of every contribution. EVERYTHING YOU GET FREE * Up to 3 goals and 1 Together pot * Automatic budget splitting across pots * Payday reminders * Full payment history and archive * Backup and restore your data * Works offline with no account needed GO FURTHER WITH PREMIUM A single one-time purchase.

We never sell your data, and there are no ads. Potshare is a personal budgeting and savings planner, not a bank. It does not hold your money or connect to financial institutions. It just helps you plan the saving you are already doing and share the journey with people you trust. Download Potshare and give your money a plan today.

Wallop requires a subscription. Start with a 7-day free trial, then ยฃ7.99/month or ยฃ59.99/year. Meet Wallop - the budgeting app where you actually stick to your budget. Wallop is your pig. He's chubby, a little dramatic, and he takes your spending personally. Budget well and he thrives. Blow it on a fourth coffee and he doesn't. It sounds ridiculous. It works. Wallop is a subscription app. Every feature described below requires an active subscription, available after a free trial. Full pricing and terms are at the bottom of this page. HOW IT WORKS Forget one big scary "budget" number. Wallop splits your money into Stashes - Coffee, Eating Out, Shopping, whatever matters to you. Each Stash has its own little pig mood, its own health bar, its own reason to care. Log a purchase in two taps. Watch your pig react. See exactly which Stash is hurting before it becomes a problem. STASHES Your money, organised the way you actually think about it. Not "I have ยฃ400 left this month" - "I have ยฃ40 left for eating out, and three more days until payday." PAYDAY, REIMAGINED When you get paid, Wallop doesn't just reset - he celebrates. Watch your Stashes refill, watch your pig come back to life, and start the cycle knowing exactly where every pound is going. GOALS THAT FEEL CLOSE Save toward something real - a holiday, a new phone, an emergency fund. Add money manually, or let Wallop automatically roll your leftover cash toward whatever you're saving for next. NET WORTH, TRACKED HONESTLY See your full financial picture - savings, investments, debts - all in one place. No bank connection required. Just you, your numbers, and a pig who's rooting for you. WHY MANUAL LOGGING (NOT BANK SYNC)? Because the moment you tap "log this purchase" is the moment you actually think about whether you should. Automatic tracking lets you forget. Wallop doesn't let you forget. BUDGETING THAT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE A SPREADSHEET No guilt-tripping push notifications from a faceless app. Just a pig who's a little too invested in your financial decisions - and somehow, that's exactly what makes it work. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS An active subscription is required to use Wallop. - Monthly โ€” ยฃ7.99 per month - Annual โ€” ยฃ59.99 per year Both plans begin with a 7-day free trial.
