If you want to be a more responsible consumer – or just quit making purchases that you (and your bank account) later regret – Bless can help you be mindful about the items you buy, as well as the ones you already own.

What we love: When we’re shopping, we see all the ways a product will make our lives better (such as that fitness gadget we just know will make us finally want to work out), but when we add the items we want into Bless’s My Things tab and make ourselves wait the suggested time before purchasing them, that initial excitement fades and we can compare all the things we want alongside what we already have. Over time, as we resist the urge to make some of those impulse purchases, we’re motivated by seeing the growing sum of money we’ve saved.

Quick tip: Wavering about whether you really need something on your Want list? Tap the three dots next to the item and choose “Rethink now”. The app can help you decide whether it’s really worth it by asking you questions like “What goal do you fulfill by this purchase?” and “How often will you be using this item?”

Meet the creator: The team behind Bless aims to make you conscious about more than just your consumption. They also created the wellness app Stoic, which encourages users to journal their moods and incorporate mini mental health exercises throughout their day.
