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.
