Instead, it helps you change what happens before you spend.\n\nEvery day we’re faced with countless opportunities to make impulse purchases. A coffee on the way to work. Another takeaway because you’re tired. A late-night online shopping session. Clothes you don’t really need. A gadget that feels exciting for five minutes before becoming another forgotten purchase.\n\nThese decisions often happen in seconds.\n\nSkip & Save acts as a behavioural circuit breaker, helping you pause, recognise the impulse and consciously decide whether you really want to spend your money.\n\nInstead of asking:\n\n“What did I buy?”\n\nSkip & Save asks a much more powerful question:\n\n“What did I choose not to buy?”\n\nThat simple shift changes everything.\n\nEvery purchase you decide not to make becomes a positive action instead of a missed opportunity. Rather than feeling like you’ve deprived yourself, you begin building visible proof that you’re making smarter financial decisions.\n\nThe goal isn’t to stop spending money forever.\n\nLife is meant to be enjoyed.\n\nSkip & Save isn’t about guilt, restrictions or saying no to everything. It’s about helping you spend intentionally rather than impulsively. Buy the things that genuinely improve your life, but recognise the purchases driven by boredom, habit, stress, convenience or temporary emotion.\n\nEvery coffee you walked past.\n\nEvery takeaway you resisted.\n\nEvery unnecessary subscription you cancelled.\n\nEvery online checkout you closed.\n\nEvery impulse purchase you decided wasn’t worth it.\n\nEvery one of those moments becomes measurable progress.\n\nInstead of disappearing into your bank statement, those decisions become something you can celebrate.\n\nOver time you’ll begin to notice patterns in your behaviour. You may discover you’re most likely to impulse spend after work, when you’re tired, when you’re bored, or while scrolling online.\n\nAwareness is the first step towards lasting behavioural change.\n\nSkip & Save transforms those small everyday decisions into motivation by rewarding positive habits and helping you build consistency over time.\n\nFEATURES\n\n• Log purchases you decided not to make in seconds\n\n• Track exactly how much money you’ve kept in your pocket\n\n• Choose from built-in categories or create your own\n\n• Add optional notes to remember why you skipped something\n\n• Build daily streaks that encourage consistency\n\n• Unlock achievements as your habits improve\n\n• Celebrate milestones throughout your journey\n\n• Discover personalised insights into your spending behaviour\n\n• See your biggest temptations and strongest habits over time\n\n• Review your largest skipped purchase\n\n• Explore trends across categories\n\n• Weekly summaries of your progress and habits\n\n• Export your data to PDF & CSV files\n\n• Beautiful, simple design built around positive reinforcement\n\n• Secure cloud syncing across your Apple devices\n\nSkip & Save is built around behavioural finance - the idea that our spending decisions are influenced by habits, emotions and psychology rather than logic alone.\n\nRather than making you feel guilty about money you’ve already spent, Skip & Save helps you recognise spending decisions before they happen.\n\nEach skip reinforces a healthier habit.\n\nEach decision builds confidence.\n\nEach moment of self-control becomes visible progress.\n\nSmall decisions repeated consistently can create remarkable long-term change.\n\nWhether you’re trying to reduce impulse spending, become more mindful with money, save towards a goal, or simply become more intentional with your finances, Skip & Save helps you recognise and celebrate every positive decision along the way.\n\nYour progress isn’t measured by what you bought.\n\nIt’s measured by what you chose not to buy.\n\nSmall skips.\nBig future.","facts":{"developer_id":6781008498,"developer_url":"https://skipandsave.uk","first_released":"2026-07-03T07:00:00Z","support_url":"https://skipandsave.uk/","privacy_url":"https://skipandsave.uk/","website_url":"https://skipandsave.uk/","app_version":"1.2","release_notes":"Introducing Goals:\n\nYou can now create savings goals and turn your skips into real progress.
