The Miscellaneous Settings section in the app provides a variety of random small customization options that help enhance your user experience. Below are the settings available under this section, along with their descriptions.


Accessing Miscellaneous Settings

To customize your app experience, head to Settings in the app and scroll to the bottom of the menu. Here, you'll find the Miscellaneous Settings section, where you can adjust various options to suit your preferences.


Sound Effects

If you decide to keep the sound effects on, don’t worry—they're designed to be fun and not too annoying. We promise! 😏

This setting enables or disables sound effects within the app. When enabled, you'll hear playful audio feedback for certain actions, adding an interactive feel to your navigation. The sounds are usually played when completing important tasks, such as dealing with overspending, completing a goal, or allocating every penny to a category. Toggle this option depending on your preference for a more immersive or silent app experience.


Compact Bottom Navigation

Enable this option to display only icons in the bottom navigation bar, hiding their labels. This can create a cleaner, more minimalistic interface, making it ideal for users who prefer a simplified look or are already familiar with the navigation icons.


Dim Non-Current Months

When this option is turned on, the app will softly dim the appearance of past and future months in calendar views. This visual cue helps you focus on the current month, reducing distractions and making it easier to manage your finances in the present.

Enabled
Disabled

Notification Dot

Activate the notification dot to be informed about important updates on key features. When enabled, a small dot will appear on the respective icon, alerting you to new notifications without interrupting your workflow.

Enabled
Disabled

Internet Connection Warnings

This setting controls whether you receive warnings about your internet connection status. If enabled, the app will notify you of any connection issues that could affect its performance. Disabling this might be useful if you prefer not to receive such alerts.


Open Keyboard by Default

Enable this feature to automatically open the keyboard on screens where text input is required, such as when selecting dates or entering amounts. This can save time and make data entry more efficient, especially for users who frequently input information.

Enabled
After

Open Transaction Edit Automatically

When this option is enabled, the app will skip the summary view and directly open the edit mode for transactions by default. This is useful for users who want to quickly make changes to their transactions without navigating through additional screens.

Enabled
Disabled

These settings allow you to customize the app according to your preferences, making your budgeting experience more personalized and user-friendly. Adjust these options to suit your needs and streamline your financial management process.
