I am excited that an app like this exists. I just downloaded it and have not been able to use it in real life yet, but I love the idea behind the app. I do feel like a key item is missing though... It would be nice to have a “want” list that counts down how long you’ve been thinking about the purchase. It would be satisfying to see the days tick by and possibly a notes section regarding the item you want to purchase. It would tie in well to the question “have you wanted it for at least two weeks?”.

Hello and Happy New Year! We are likewise excited for you to use the app. Great feedback on the want list/count down. This has been something on our radar. But with your feedback, we will see what we can do to move it forward sooner. If you'd like to email us at stopimpulsebuyingapp@gmail.com we could share some ideas and talk details. In the meantime, here's a few ways you can get started with the app! - On the main page - you can set a single goal. A northstar, if you will. ex. to save money, cut back on spending, pay off dept. -Also, if you're in a trial/subscribed you can start using the No Spend Tracker. This is a visual way you can track days you don't make an impulse purchase. -next time you go to the grocery, prepare a list (see our settings). We've added a fun and simple shopping list tool you can use and reuse. -Also, something brand new we just added is a Budget Tracker. Set an allowance, or simple record expenses. This is on the dashboard.
Too permissive and expensive

It has a lot of potential. The free version is not very functional, but it offers a helpful list of questions to ask before making a purchase. Once you’ve answered the questions, the app gives a recommendation (buy or don’t buy) based on your responses. For me, the questionnaire keeps recommending that I make the purchase, even if I’ve given some great reasons not to buy the item. I turn to this app to stop myself from making these purchases, but it encourages me to make them anyway. I wish the questionnaire had higher standards, and I wish I could modify the question weights. And I wish the questions were clearer and deeper - what exactly is the cost per use, how many times will I use the item within the next year, how many hours will I have to work to pay for it, etc. I’m sure if they added these features, they would be behind a paywall though. More than anything, the free version should be functional. It’s just a worksheet right now. Most of the app is behind a paywall and it has constant popup windows trying to get me to buy the premium version, which is super unhelpful to someone on a spending freeze.

Hi StanleyB95,Thanks for the thoughtful feedback. We’ve improved the questionnaire to be more selective and along with a couple helpful tips. We also offer a free 7-day trial so you can explore all features and make confident spending decisions. Appreciate you helping us improve!—The Stop Impulse Buying Team
I’ve been dreaming of an app like this!

I’ve been dreaming of a cute and functional no-spend app that encourages you to think more intentionally about purchases and this is it. The interface is absurdly cute and makes me want to open and use it more than with most tracking apps I’ve tried for various reasons. I hope to see it grow and add features over time but expect I’ll use this a lot to gamify not spending!
Developer Response

I am definitely guilty of being easily influenced online and on social media, and I love that this app helps keep me accountable from buying things that I don’t need! The questions help me realize if I truly need the item or if it is just an impulse buy. Great layout and simple to use!
