ADHD Budget Planner App | Safe to Spend Today, Bills, Debts and Savings Goals, Works Offline, Free Demo

CALM MONEY, THE ADHD BUDGET PLANNER APP. Open it and you see one next money step, then one number: what is safe to spend today. Tap Done and the next step appears. No twenty boxes to fill in first, no red, no streaks, no guilt.

It opens in your browser, adds to your Home Screen like an app and works offline. No account, no bank login, no subscription. ADHD-friendly mode shows 3 small things for today, whole numbers and a Focus switch that hides everything except Right now and Safe to spend.

TRY THE FREE DEMO FIRST: https://app.neatwrenstudio.com/demo/?mode=adhd
It is the real app with example numbers, opening in ADHD-friendly mode. Overview, Spending, Bills & income, the calendar, notes, the wait list and both modes are open (up to 25 spends, 5 bills, 5 notes and 3 wait-list items). Budgets, goals, debts and Insights show as previews. Download a backup in the demo and your numbers carry over to the full version.

WHAT IT DOES
- SAFE TO SPEND: your balance, minus the bills still to go out before payday, minus what your budgets keep back, minus money put aside for occasional bills and an optional safety buffer. "How is this worked out?" lists every figure.
- AM I ON TRACK?: bills before payday, budgets, goals and debts, each with a status in colour, icon and word: On track, Watch this, or Over by the amount.
- MONEY LEFT UNTIL PAYDAY: a chart of your balance day by day with every bill marked, and where your usual pace leaves you the day before pay. Week, month, pay period or 3 months.
- LOG A SPEND IN TWO TAPS: the + button, an amount, a category. On a computer, Ctrl or Cmd + K and type "25 groceries".
- BILLS AND INCOME ON ANY CYCLE: monthly, two days a month, every 2 weeks, every 4 weeks, weekly, every few months or once; day 31 means the last day of the month. Pay that lands early when payday is a weekend. Put a bit aside each month for insurance and renewals.
- SUBSCRIPTIONS: mark a bill as a subscription, see the monthly and yearly total, and set a cancel or review-by date.
- BUDGETS WITH PACE: each budget shows a tick for even pace today, so one running fast shows early. Going over is shown, never shouted.
- 48-HOUR WAIT LIST: park the things you want. After 48 hours, buy it or let it go; money not spent is kept as a win. Never counted in Safe to spend.
- GOALS AND DEBTS: goal rings with dates and the monthly amount needed; debts with paid off so far, a clear-by date, and highest-rate or smallest-balance order. Card spends go on the card, not out of your account twice.
- CALENDAR: bills, paydays, reminders and spending by day, month by month.
- INSIGHTS: spending by category with arrows against last time, planned vs actual for every budget, 6 months of money in and out, savings progress, and small wins. Any pay period, month, week or your own dates.
- NOTES AND REMINDERS: notes, to-dos and dated reminders. Export bills, paydays, goal dates, debt payments, subscription reviews and reminders to Apple, Google or Outlook calendar, with alerts.
- TWO MODES: ADHD-friendly (one next step at a time, 3 small things, whole numbers, Focus, a gentle 48-hour nudge for non-essential spends over £25) or Standard (pence, a Coming up table, breakdowns open). Same features, switch any time.
- MAKE IT YOURS: 8 colour schemes or your own colour, light or dark, 5 font choices including Atkinson Hyperlegible, text size, density and reduced motion. The app icon follows your colours. Name your planner.
- IMPORT AND EXPORT: CSV import from our money spreadsheets' Export to Calm Money tab or a plain bank export, with a preview before anything changes; CSV export of everything; backups with a reminder after 14 days.
- 25 CURRENCIES, English (UK) or English (US).

Back it up now and then: if you clear your browser's data, the app's data goes too.

WHO IT IS FOR
Anyone who has opened a budget spreadsheet, felt the overwhelm and closed it. Built around how a distractible brain actually uses a planner: one thing at a time, nothing that can be broken, calm words. Made by someone with ADHD. Not a medical product and not financial advice.
