Tailored to how you organize your money
Every widget can be customized independently via iOS widget settings:
Scope to Expense Groups
Place travel budgets on a Vacation focus screen and side hustles on a Work screen, keeping daily totals on your main screen.
Filter recurring bills
Exclude fixed rent and subscriptions so daily widgets show only discretionary counter purchases.
Flexible display modes
View budget pacing as a simple remaining balance or an Over / Under pace benchmark.
Adding a widget takes under a minute: our step-by-step widget setup guide covers home screen placement, lock screen dials, and troubleshooting.
