Every price has a hidden cost: your time.
Life Cost turns prices into the working time you spend earning them. Type a price and instantly see: “64h 20m of your working life – that’s 8 working days.” Suddenly, impulse buys look very different.
HOW IT WORKS
• Enter your net income and working hours once.
• Type any price – or pick an example like a smartphone, sneakers or dinner out.
• See the cost in hours, minutes and working days, visualised day by day.
DECIDE BETTER
• Not sure? Put it on your wishlist. After 7 days, Life Cost asks again – most wishes fade.
• Let it go and keep the time: every skipped purchase is counted as time reclaimed.
• Bought it anyway? It goes into your history – edit or delete anytime.
YOUR MONTH IN WORKING DAYS
• Add rent, electricity, internet and other fixed costs.
• See exactly until which day you work for your costs – and which days are really yours.
• Tap any day in the calendar to see what it pays for.
INSIGHTS
• Your spending by category, the last 6 months at a glance, your biggest purchase and the time you kept.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no bank connection, no tracking, no ads.
• All data stays on your device.
• Optional privacy mode hides your income and hourly value behind Face ID or Touch ID.
MADE FOR IPHONE DUO
• Unfolded, Life Cost shows two panes side by side – or top and bottom when you hold it upright.
