What it does

Sinking funds with a plan

01

One jar per goal

Name it, pick an icon and a color, set a target and a deadline. Templates for an emergency fund, travel, taxes, a car, a gift, a home.

02

A pace that adds up

Jars works out how much to set aside each week or month, and tells you which month you will get there at the pace you are actually saving.

03

Payday reminders

Savings plans remind you on payday. Missed a week? Catch up, snooze it or skip it — Jars never invents money you did not save.

04

Split a payday

Spread one deposit across several jars: evenly, by what each jar still needs, or in the order you choose.

05

Savings challenges

52-week, 26-week, 100 envelopes, the penny challenge, or a schedule you build yourself. Tick off weeks in any order.

06

Where you stand

Everything saved so far, this month's deposits and withdrawals, jars on track, and how your balance grew over time.

How it works

Deposit, withdraw, move — all with a note

Add money in a few taps

Every entry keeps a date and a note you can edit later, and anything you just did can be undone.

Counted wrong?

Type the balance you actually have and Jars records the difference.

Keep jars your way

Each jar in its own currency, with a cover photo and a note of where the money really sits.

Your data

Your data, your files

  • Your jars stay on your phone. They only leave when you send them somewhere: a backup or a file you export.
  • No account, no sign-in, no ads, and it all works offline.
  • Automatic backups to your own iCloud Drive on iPhone; export everything as a ZIP, or transactions as CSV.
  • Lock Jars behind Face ID or your passcode, and hide every amount until you tap it.
  • It never touches your bank. Jars keeps score of money you move yourself.
