free to download on iPhone

the envelopes home: what was spent since the last stuffing, then every envelope with what is left in it

how it works

  1. adding income: a paycheck typed on the keypad, ready to stuff when you budget next

    step 1

    money comes in

    you get paid, you add it as income. it waits, ready to stuff on the day you budget next.

  2. stuffing: the keypad with the envelope's last amount and a suggested amount

    step 2

    stuff your envelopes

    one envelope per thing: groceries, rent, a holiday. the app suggests how much, from what you usually spend.

  3. the groceries envelope: what is left, what was spent of what was stuffed, and its history

    step 3

    spend what’s in them

    every envelope shows what’s left. when it’s empty, you wait for the next stuffing, or move money from another envelope.

what you’ll see

  • the overview: a month calendar with spend-free days, stuffing days and upcoming bills, and the month's money in and out

    your month: spend-free days, stuffing days, bills

  • adding an expense: the amount, what it was for, and the envelope it comes from

    a spend: the amount, what for, which envelope

  • the vacation savings envelope: what is saved, what is to go, and how much to stuff each time

    a savings goal, and what to stuff each time

  • First full month of the app and it's so simple. I've not had to dip into my emergency fund or sinking fund or use overdraft. I've even managed to put some money towards debt and not reuse it
