Wallop

Wallop is a budgeting app for iPhone and iPad built around a pig character that reacts to how you spend. Instead of one monthly number, money is divided into Stashes such as Coffee, Eating Out or Shopping. Each Stash has its own pig mood and health bar, so you can see which category is struggling. A purchase is logged in two taps, and the app deliberately uses manual logging rather than bank sync so you think about each purchase.

On payday, the Stashes refill and the pig recovers. Savings goals such as a holiday, a phone or an emergency fund can be funded by hand or by rolling leftover cash toward the next goal. A net worth view brings savings, investments and debts together without connecting a bank account. Wallop requires a subscription, with a 7-day free trial on both plans, then 7.99 pounds a month or 59.99 pounds a year. Extra characters are sold separately as one-time purchases.
