SpendPause puts 60 seconds between you and your next impulse purchase. Enter the price, sit with four honest questions, then decide. Most people just need a pause — not more willpower.
How it works
Type in what you're about to spend. Seeing the number out in the open is the first moment of clarity.
A countdown begins. Four questions rotate on screen: do I need this today? Will I want it tomorrow? What else could this money do? Is this stress or a real need?
When the timer ends, tap "I skipped it" or "I still bought it." Either answer is honest — and honesty is how the savings add up.
Your paused amount grows over time. See exactly how much you've saved yourself — and how much you chose to spend anyway.

Research consistently shows that a short delay between impulse and action dramatically reduces the chance of acting on it. SpendPause makes that delay unavoidable — and turns it into a moment of reflection instead of just waiting.
