About Until Payday: Paycheck Budget
This planner shows at a glance how much you can still spend until payday. Fixed monthly bills such as rent, subscriptions and card payments only need to be entered once under “Upcoming Bills”. Set them to repeat and they're deducted automatically, with no need to enter them again every month. The money remaining after bills and expenses are taken out of your take-home paycheck, a countdown of days until payday, and your daily spending amount are shown in large type at the top of the app's main screen. It's made for people who don't need the detailed calculations of an allowance book, spending tracker or household budget.
GREAT FOR
• When you want to know how much you can still spend until payday
• When you want to set aside rent and subscription payments first
• When you want to avoid running short of cash or overspending at the end of the month, and manage your money or build savings
• When you want to divide what's left by the remaining days to see how much you can spend each day
HOW TO USE
1. On the first screen, enter your “Pay amount”, choose a “Pay cycle” (Monthly / Not monthly) and your “Next payday”, then tap “Start”.
2. For bills you know are coming, such as rent or subscriptions, tap “Upcoming Bills” on the main screen, tap “+” at the top right, and enter the amount and due date. Set “Repeat” to “Monthly” and it's added automatically from the next month on (a weekly option, “Every” plus the weekday, is also available).
3. When you spend money, enter the amount with the “Add Expense” button at the bottom of the main screen.
4. If you receive extra income, add it with the “Add Extra Income” button.
5. To delete an item in the “Upcoming Bills” or “Expense History” list, swipe it to the left.
