How are my six pots worked out?

Each pot gets its percentage of your monthly income, calculated to the exact penny. Any leftover pennies from rounding go to the pots with the largest remainders, so the pots always add up to your income.

What's the difference between an expense and a transfer?

Both use up money in a pot. Expenses count as spending in your charts; transfers are money you set aside, such as savings, and can be linked to a goal.

How do I change my income or percentages?

Go to Settings and tap Edit income & allocations. Changes to the current month also become the defaults for future months. Past months keep their own settings.

Can I change currency?

BudgetSix supports pounds, euros and US dollars. You can switch currency before you add any transactions or goals. The app never converts amounts, so the currency is fixed after that.

Is my data backed up or synced?

Your budget is stored only on your device. It is included in your normal iCloud or computer backup, but it isn't synced between devices. Deleting the app deletes its data.

Why did a pot turn red?

You've used more than that pot's allocation this month. The amount shown is how far over you are.
