HoursTag Lite converts a price into working time based on your take-home value per work hour. You tag each item as Need, Want or Impulse and gradually see your own spending pattern. Goals can be added too, showing the work hours behind them and your progress.

There is a widget and Apple Watch support, plus a backup and restore function covering income, spending, goals and preferences. The developer states everything stays on the device, with no account and no tracking; the App Store listing reports no data collected. It runs on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Vision and Apple-silicon Macs.

Why no subscription? The download is free; the full version is a one-time $4.99 in-app purchase labelled lifetime access. No recurring fee.
