Add your rent, loans, subscriptions and anything else that leaves on a schedule. Aside Money adds them up, warns you days before each one lands, and lets you set the money aside so it stops looking spendable.
The number in your banking app counts money that is already promised to somebody else. It just has not left yet.
So you spend it. Then rent lands, and the month gets tight for reasons that felt like bad luck but were arithmetic all along.
Every other app in this category stops at the reminder. The reminder is the easy half.
Pick from a list of common bills or type your own. Amount, date, how often it repeats. Fifteen seconds, once.
One tap marks it as no longer yours to spend, weeks before it actually leaves. Nothing moves in your bank. The point is that you stop counting it.
When the money really goes, tap once more. The bill goes quiet until next month and the total at the top drops.
Subscriptions are the cheap half of what leaves your account. Rent, the loan and the transfer home are the expensive half, and most apps in this category quietly ignore them.
Get a push notification for each bill at the time you configure. Each reminder includes the bill name and amount, so you can set the money aside without unlocking your phone first.
You can also enable a daily digest to collect everything due into one clear summary. Missed one? The day after it was due, you get a simple question rather than an assumption.
Most money apps want your bank login on day one. This one has nowhere to send it, so it never asks.
No email, no password, no sign up screen standing between you and the app. Open it and add your first bill.
You tell it what is due, and that is everything it knows. It never sees a balance, a transaction or a salary, because none of that is needed to remind you about rent.
Moving to a new phone means exporting a backup file and opening it on the other side. Free on every plan, including the free one.
No trial, no countdown, no card up front. The free tier does the job a trial would, so nobody gets charged by surprise. That would be a strange way to run a bill reminder.
Cancel anytime.
No. It is a commitment you make to yourself, not a transfer. The app marks the money as claimed so you stop counting it as spendable, and it keeps reminding you until you say the bill is paid.
Because then this becomes an app that holds your bank credentials, and you would be right to think harder before installing it. Typing in a bill takes fifteen seconds and happens once. That trade seemed worth making.
You lose your bills, unless you exported a backup. That is the honest cost of having no server. The app nudges you to export once a month, and restoring is one file and one tap.
No, and it never pretends otherwise. It only knows what you tell it. That is why the day after a due date it asks whether the payment went out rather than telling you that you missed it.
Yes. Aside Money is available on both the App Store and Google Play.
For a lot of people, yes. Rent, one loan and your major utilities is often where the misses actually happen. If you want the rest of your month in there too, that is what the $1.90 is for.
Add five bills free and see whether the number surprises you. It usually does.
