Only been using the app for a week or so, but just noticed that the tile on the home screen which says “This week you spent £…” was including a transfer from my current account to my savings account as expenditure.

I have both accounts added in the app, so unless you unless it’s not possible, I’m not sure it should count transfers between accounts as spends?

Gave me a mild heart-attack until I realised what it actually was! 😄

You can recategorise it as excluded as it’s an in and out transaction and it then shouldn’t be included in your weekly spend

Can you message live chat? We should automatically categorise this as excluded. 🙂

It would be great to see “This week you saved £…” in the feed as well!

Saved as in… how much money you added to a savings account?

Or, you normally spend £100 a week and this week you’ve spent £80, so you’ve saved £20? 😆

Yes, into savings accounts - which isn’t really spending!

We don’t really support these. ☹

You can easily track payments out of current accounts and Pro does manual savings too, so I track then approximately with Emma

Really, all you’d need is a Savings section alongside Spending and Income.
