# Widgets and Shortcuts

The app offers three powerful widgets that bring convenience, control, and engagement directly to your home screen.

***

**Quick Overview Widget** – This widget provides a snapshot of your most important financial information, such as pinned accounts or categories, upcoming payments, and recent transactions. It allows for instant interaction—whether you're adding a quick transaction, viewing details of an upcoming bill, or simply staying on top of your expenses without even opening the app. Clicking on any item can quickly open it in full detail for further management.

***

**Quick Actions Widget** – Designed for swift access to essential tasks, this widget offers shortcuts for adding new transactions, setting reminders, managing a shopping list, and more. It's the go-to widget for users looking to streamline frequent actions and manage their day-to-day finances with minimal effort.

**League Widget** – This fun and interactive widget lets you keep track of your position in the monthly league, helping you stay motivated and engaged with your financial goals. While it's not directly tied to managing your expenses, it's an engaging tool to see how your spending compares with others in the Beyond Budget community, encouraging better habits.
