What it does

Two tools, one calm app.

Build a monthly budget you can actually keep — then model a retirement you can actually picture.

Envelope budgeting

Give every dollar a job

Split your income into envelopes — housing, groceries, retirement, a vacation fund — and watch your unallocated buffer settle to zero as you go. Drag a row's bar to rebalance an amount in real time.

  • Drag a row's bar to re-allocate instantly
  • Live income, allocated and buffer at the top
  • Sort by name, category or amount — or arrange by hand
  • Track one person or a couple, side by side

Charts that match the numbers

A donut shows each category's share of your income; a bar view breaks allocation down per person. Tap any slice to focus it — the center always reads the percentage and the dollars.

  • Grouped by category, not clutter
  • Live percentage of income in the middle
  • Per-person breakdown for couples

Retirement scenarios

Will the money last?

Set your assumptions once, then compare claiming Social Security at 62, 65, 67 and 70 — each as its own balance curve with a clear depletion age. A year-by-year table shows the balance every December 31.

  • Four scenarios as small multiples
  • Year-by-year projection table
  • Plain depletion-age warnings, never advice

Why people choose it

Calm by default.

Couples-ready

Toggle between one- and two-person budgets without losing a thing. Person 2 amounts simply hide when you don't need them.

Honest projections

Returns, inflation and taxes are assumptions you control. Forecasts are scenarios to compare — never financial advice.

No subscriptions

No ads, no upsells, no account. Pay once on the App Store and the whole app is yours, on every Apple device you own.
