Can I start without my partner?
Yes. Start on your own and invite one partner later. Your solo household begins with just you, at 100%—no placeholder partner needed.
Does Houspensive move money?
No. You enter your bills and record deposits in the app. Bank transfers and payments happen separately. Houspensive helps you understand the numbers; it doesn’t connect to your bank or pay bills for you.
What does “left to deposit” mean?
It’s the additional amount the app shows a person needs to contribute for the selected month, based on their household’s recorded figures and applicable credit choices. For example, if your share is $360, you’ve deposited $280, and no other balances or credit apply, you have $80 left to deposit. Houspensive doesn’t send a transfer or payment request.
What if one of us contributes extra?
Houspensive shows a person’s credit when they’ve contributed more than their share. For example, if your share is $540 and you’ve deposited $620, that’s $80 above your share in this simple example. Credit stays in the ledger and is carried forward when the month is closed. Each person can choose whether to use their own available credit in an open month; using it changes the requested contribution, not the deposits already recorded.
Do we both need a subscription?
No. One owner subscription covers a household of one or two people. A three-day household trial starts when you create the household, with no automatic charge at its end. An active owner subscription is then required for continued access. The household trial is separate from any Apple introductory offer; available plans and localized prices are shown in the app before purchase.
Can we plan recurring deposits?
Yes. For example, you could plan a $100 deposit each payday. It stays expected—and out of your balance—until you confirm it was received. You can adjust the amount when confirming. Expected, unconfirmed, or skipped deposits don’t count toward your balance. Houspensive doesn’t transfer money or detect bank deposits.
Does it add next month’s bills automatically?
You choose when to prepare the month. Reusable Bill Names help you get started, and you confirm the bills that should count. Expected or unconfirmed plans stay separate from confirmed financial totals.
