Dashboard Walkthrough

Quiet Mode

Not everyone wants a wall of charts every time they open the app. Quiet Mode strips the dashboard down to what matters—your financial health at a glance.

Overview

What is Quiet Mode?

Quiet Mode is an alternative dashboard view that replaces the full KPI grid with a single health gauge. Instead of charts, trends, and detailed breakdowns, you see one composite score and only the anomalies that need your attention.

It's designed for people who check in weekly rather than daily and don't want data overload. Toggle it on or off from Profile → Preferences. Your data and settings don't change—just the view.

Step by Step

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Enable Quiet Mode

Navigate to Profile → Preferences and toggle “Quiet Mode” on. The dashboard will immediately switch to the simplified view.

2. Read the Health Gauge

The gauge shows your overall financial health as a single composite score. Green means healthy, amber means something needs attention, red means multiple anomalies detected.

3. Review Anomalies

Below the gauge, any active spending anomalies appear as dismissable cards. These are the same anomalies from the Spending Health system—just surfaced in a simpler layout.

4. Dismiss or Act

Tap an anomaly to see details. Dismiss it if it's expected (holiday spending, annual bills), or navigate to the relevant page if you need to take action.

5. Switch Back Anytime

Toggle Quiet Mode off in Preferences to return to the full dashboard with all KPIs, charts, and spending breakdowns. Nothing is lost—the data is always there.

Pro Tips

Pro Tips

  • Set it and forget it: Build your budget and categories in the full dashboard, then switch to Quiet Mode for week-to-week check-ins. You get the best of both: detailed setup, minimal maintenance.
  • Sidebar still works: All sidebar navigation is available in Quiet Mode. Only the main Overview dashboard changes. You can still access Transactions, Blueprint, Cash Flow, and everything else.
  • Screen sharing friendly: If you're sharing your screen or just don't want numbers visible, Quiet Mode reduces information density without requiring you to log out.
