Spendable Today: Daily Budget
Payday budget, daily allowance
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
Over budget? Pause the apps that tempt you. With Plus, Spending lock limits the apps and sites you choose, only when you go over today’s budget or a category budget.
Daily Budget answers one question instantly: “How much can I spend today?” It subtracts fixed costs, savings, and big future purchases first, then shows only what you can comfortably spend today.
A budgeting app for people who want easier decisions today — not just a review of last month.
Recommended if you:
• Want to make your money last from payday to payday
• Never stuck with budgeting apps — but still want to stop overspending
• Want your true spendable amount after fixed costs and savings
• Live alone and want a simple way to start managing money

Daily Budget Plus
Plus includes:
• Spending lock: when you go over today’s budget or a category budget, the apps and websites you choose (like food delivery or shopping) are limited with Screen Time. Today’s budget unlocks at midnight, and category budgets unlock when the cycle changes. Fix the budget and it unlocks right away, or unlock for today when you need to.
• Leaf, Sakura, Wisteria and Graphite color themes
Spending lock requires Screen Time access. This app can’t see which apps you use. Every key feature above except Spending lock works without Plus.
Ratings & Reviews
The Spending lock screen has been rebuilt. From top to bottom you now see its current status, what gets limited and when, and when it unlocks. First-time setup walks you through three steps, and if Screen Time access is off, the app shows how to turn it back on. You can also turn all locks off at once.
The Plus screen now shows clearly what Spending lock does and which features you can use without Plus.
