Sound familiar?

“I don't want to log every single transaction. I always give up halfway, and then I spend all day wondering why the app's balance doesn't match my real one.”

“I just want to know how much I can spend today~~~”

What is KakePhooa?

Money is stamina and spending drains it. To save, first know the most you can use in a day! KakePhooa keeps you focused on today's stamina, so spending feels lighter, everyday costs stay in check, and saving gets easier.

Today's stamina

Money is your stamina, and spending uses it up!

Stamina used

Spending drains it. How do you know how much you've lost? Write it down, my friend.

The regular tithe

Living costs something, or something drains you... rent, streaming services, loans, credit card plans. Oh... what a painful realization...

Heads up!

KakePhooa doesn't give financial advice, but it lets you know when a debt is nearly paid off, when a Category keeps going over, or when Expenses are left Uncategorized.

Check the Living Allowance

How much can I still spend this month?

This month's Living Allowance is NT$ 28,200, and you've used NT$ 19,460 so far. Spread over the remaining days, that's about NT$ 730 a day.

Track a repayment

How long until the mortgage is paid off?

At the current schedule it's paid off in June 2033, with 93 payments to go.

Add an Expense

Log lunch just now, NT$ 150

Should it go under the “Dining” Category? Confirm and I'll add the Expense.

Weigh a big purchase

I want a NT$ 60,000 laptop. Is now a bad time?

Only NT$ 8,740 of this month's Living Allowance is left, so buying it would put you NT$ 51,260 over. Consider paying over time, or wait until next month's Living Allowance.
