What your spending is made of

Read how spending splits by category or by budget, and open the list of expenses behind each amount.

The Composition block, at the bottom of the Analytics screen, splits your spending by category or by budget. It follows the period and filters chosen higher up on the screen: you see where your money goes, and whether it is more or less than usual.

Read the composition

  1. Open the Analytics tab and scroll down to Composition.
  2. The block opens on Budgets; tap Categories to change the grouping.
  3. Tap See all to show every row, and Show less to fold them back.
Composition block by category: Rent, Groceries and Transport with their amount, change and share of income, the comparison period and See allComposition block by category: Rent, Groceries and Transport with their amount, change and share of income, the comparison period and See all

Each row gives three pieces of information. For example, "Groceries $3,520.75 -3%" and "14% of income" mean that groceries cost you $3,520.75 over the period, 3% less than over the comparison period, and that they make up 14% of your income. The comparison period is restated below the list, after "vs". Tap the % button, next to the groupings, to read each change as an amount rather than a percentage.

Expenses without a category are grouped under Uncategorized. If you tapped a bar of the chart, the composition covers that bar only; tap elsewhere to go back to the whole period.

See the expenses behind an amount

  1. Tap a row of the composition.
  2. Browse the list that opens: it restates the number of expenses and their total, for example "38 expenses · $3,521".
  3. Tap an expense to edit it.
  4. From a budget, tap Open the budget to go to its page.

Below the chart, Expenses opens the same list for every expense of the period, and Income opens your Personal income list, which you can read but not change.

Good to know

  • Amounts hidden with the eye icon stay hidden in these lists.
  • In the Shared analysis, the income list is not offered: income stays personal.
