Wafflet

Give today a number. Try to land on it.

Wafflet is a budget planner played like a game. Set a limit, log what you spend, and every day ends one of three ways. Hitting your number is the best one.

Today's quest

Limit $30.00

$30.00 left

Tap something you might spend today.

This one is live. Spend the day and see how it ends.

Three ways a day can end.

Spending your whole plan is the best result, not the worst. The skill is planning, not going without. That is the difference between a budget and a diet.

  • Saved

    Under 90% of the limit

    +15 to 25 XP

    The more you keep, the more it pays. The streak continues.

  • Bullseye

    The last 10% of the limit

    +30 XP

    You planned a number and landed on it. Nothing pays more.

  • Overspent

    Past the limit

    −10 XP

    It rains and the streak resets. Tomorrow is a new quest.

XP never drops below zero, so a rough first week cannot put you in debt. A week pays three times a day, and a month ten times.

Illustration for the level First step

You get better at this.

Eight levels, from your first step to feeling free with money. An overspend costs XP, so a level can be lost as well as won.

Level 1 of 8

First step

0 XP

Eight badges to earn.

  • First win

  • Quiet day

    Spend nothing at all for a day.

  • Seven strong

  • Sharpshooter

  • Bounce back

    Have a good day right after an overspend.

  • Made it

    Finish a week or month within budget.

  • Nailed it

    Hit a bullseye on a week or month.

  • Unstoppable

    Keep a 30 day streak.

Your spending stays on your device.

No account, no bank login, no analytics, no ads. The only thing Wafflet ever downloads is a public table of exchange rates, and only when you log an expense in a foreign currency.

What is in 1.0

For iPhone, Mac, and Apple Watch. Needs iOS 26, macOS 26, and watchOS 26.

Every day is a quest
Set a daily limit and log what you spend. At midnight the day closes as Saved (under 90% of the limit), Bullseye (90% to 100%) or Overspent.
Landing on your number pays the most
A bullseye is worth 30 XP, a saved day 15 to 25, and an overspend costs 10 and resets the streak. XP never drops below zero.
Budget by day, week or month
Pick the period you already think in. The daily quest is suggested from it and stays editable. A week pays three times a day, a month ten times.
Fair when you start partway through
A week or month you join late is pro rated to the days that are left.
The morning after
Yesterday's result is revealed with its XP, and any level or badge it earned. Several days away collapse into one reveal.

Plus is extra. The game stays free.

Quests, XP, levels, streaks and badges are free forever. Wafflet Plus adds Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets and Apple Watch, so you can see what is left today and log from your wrist.

A subscription for three months or a year, with Family Sharing. It renews until you cancel, and you can cancel any time. The price is shown in the app.
