Themes, widgets and settings

Light or dark, the Coming up widget, the quickest way to tuck away an idea, and a tour of Settings.

Make Fondfully feel like yours, and put it where you'll use it.

Theme

Currency

Open Settings, then Shopping, then Currency to choose your main currency. It starts as US dollars. Budgets add up in this currency. A gift priced in a different currency is left out of budget totals and marked, so you can see why.

The Tuck away an idea shortcut
