## Description

Tempted? Shelve it. Park impulse buys on a cooling-off shelf, decide with a clear head, and watch what you didn't spend add up in your Freedom Fund.

Tempted? Shelve it.
Wait is a simple habit app for impulse spending. Instead of buying on impulse — or white-knuckling a "no" — you give every tempting purchase a cooling-off period. Park it on your shelf, wait it out, then decide with a clear head.
Most urges don't survive the wait. When a shelved item expires and you let it go, its price lands in your Freedom Fund — a running total of the money that stayed yours.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Shelve it. The moment something tempts you, add it to your shelf instead of your basket. Name, price, a photo if you like. Ten seconds.
2. Cool off. The item waits out a timer you choose. Wait nudges you when the time is up — no decisions while the urge is hot.
3. Decide. Still want it after the wait? Buy it guilt-free. Don't? Let it go, and its price joins your Freedom Fund.
YOUR FREEDOM FUND
Every let-go adds up. Point the fund at something that actually matters to you — a trip, a deposit, a rainy-day buffer — and watch how skipped impulses stack toward it.
SEE THE HABIT CHANGE
Streaks, monthly totals and decision history, so you can see the pause working — not just feel it.
BUILT ON RESEARCH
Wait is built on behavioural-science research into impulse buying and cooling-off periods. It doesn't lecture, block your cards or judge your spending. It puts one honest pause between wanting and buying — and shows you what that pause is worth.
NO BANK CONNECTION
Wait never connects to your bank, cards or accounts. You add items yourself in seconds; your shelf and photos stay in the app.
