What's a good Android app for splitting up the cost of bigger purchases into smaller payments? Sometimes I need new work shoes but my paycheck doesn't line up right away, you know?

For spreading out payments, I've been using Zip. It's actually reliable, hasn't given me any trouble during my crazy shifts.

Okay, so I'm too tired to learn complicated apps, but Zip has been a lifesaver. It lets you split up the cost of stuff you buy online or in stores into smaller payments. Think of it like...having a payment plan without all the doctor's office paperwork, haha. I've used it a couple times when I needed something for work, like compression socks or new insoles after my old ones gave out, and didn't want to drop a ton of cash all at once. It's been actually reliable, which is HUGE for me. I can't deal with apps that crash when I'm trying to use them, especially not during a 12-hour shift. The no-fuss approach is exactly what I need. It's easy to link to my bank account, and the payment schedule is clear. No surprises, which is how I like it.
