About 52 Week Savings Challenge
How many squares to go. A savings record where the target is split into squares and you colour in what you have put aside.
- Colour a square, keep a record
- Split the target amount into squares
- Colour in as much as you have saved, in whatever order you like
- Every square coloured shows the target getting closer
WHO IT IS FOR
- You want to try a 52-week or 500-yen-coin saving challenge, but keeping it on paper never lasts
- You want to put money aside a little at a time, at a pace that suits you
- You enjoy watching your savings grow
- You want to set your own target and your own time frame
- You dislike apps that scold you or throw numbers at you
FIVE CHALLENGES TO CHOOSE FROM
- 52-week challenge: 100 yen in week one, up to 5,200 yen in week 52, adding a little more each week
- 365-day challenge: a daily one where you colour in a square once a day
- 500-yen coin saving: record each coin as it builds up
- Daily 100 yen challenge: a steady plan of 100 yen a day at an easy pace
- Custom challenge: choose the amount and the time frame yourself
- Nothing tells you off
- No streaks, no consecutive-day counts
- Days you did not record are never counted up and shown back to you
- The money stays with you
- This app does not hold or move money. It keeps a record
- The saving itself happens in your own jar or your own account. There is no deposit, withdrawal or transfer feature of any kind
EXAMPLE
1. Choose the kind of challenge you want to start
2. The target and the number of squares are set (for the custom challenge, enter an amount and a time frame)
3. When you actually put money in your jar or account, colour a square in the app
4. Squares can be coloured in any order, so you can go on whenever you feel like it
5. When the last square is coloured, the target is reached, and the next challenge is free to start
IN DAILY LIFE
- After payday, turn a savings target into squares you can see
- Record each 500-yen coin as you drop it in the jar
- Save toward a trip or something you want to buy, in a set period
- Make 100 yen a day a small daily habit
- Made to be safe to use
- Everything stays inside this device only (nothing is sent anywhere)
- No ads
- One challenge at a time is free (finish it, and the next one is free too)
The more you colour, the closer it looks.
