We read everything. Please do not include bank details or other sensitive information.
Where is my data?
Only on your phone. Leftly has no accounts and no cloud storage. See the privacy policy.
How do I change my language or switch to dark mode?
Open Settings in the app (top right on Home). Under Appearance choose Light, Dark or Same as my phone. Under Language pick any of the six languages.
How do I change an income, a bill, a budget or a goal?
Open the Money tab, then Manage. Tap anything in the lists to change or delete it, or use the add buttons to make new ones. You can add as many goals as you like. You can also tap a row in This month.
How do budgets work?
Each category you plan for, like groceries, has its own monthly budget. Every spending entry comes out of its own category, and Home shows what is left or how far over you are. A budget that is overspent is not covered by another one that is underspent. Spending in a category with no budget comes out of your free money. Tap any budget to change it. Every budget is an amount for one month. You can rename a budget, remove it, or add your own in Money, then Manage.
Why is some of my pay or some bills not counted yet?
If you tell Leftly what is in your account (you can do it in setup, or later in Settings), it only counts money that has really arrived. Pay and bills still to come are shown as still to come on Home and in Money, and are not part of the number you can spend today. When their day comes, they move in.
Where are the charts?
Open the Money tab, then Charts. Pick this month, last month, the last three months, or your own dates. Choose Everything to include bills, or Everyday only to see just the spending you logged.
What does "carried over" mean?
What you did not spend in a finished month rolls into the next one, and a month that ended short is taken off. If you have a surplus and a goal, Leftly offers to move it to the goal. If earlier months ended short, you can choose Start fresh to begin from zero.
Can I move my data to a new phone?
Your phone's own backup and restore (iCloud or Google) brings the app's data to a new phone when backups are on. Export gives you a readable copy, but it is for your own records and cannot be imported back yet.
How do I delete everything?
Settings, then Delete all my data. Or simply uninstall the app. We hold no copy.
Is this financial advice?
No. Leftly does simple maths with your own numbers. See the terms.
