Using the Spendometer

Why do I need it?

If you’re trying to stick to a budget, it’s a good idea to keep a record of everything you spend, but it’s hard work writing everything down in a notebook.

Every time you buy something, simply enter it into the Spendometer on your phone, and it will keep a record for you.

Set your own spending limits, and choose how your spending will be reported – daily, weekly or monthly.

There are four default categories to choose from – clothes, entertainment, going out, food and drink – or you can choose your own.

Check if you can afford a purchase before you buy it.
