How Do Interactive Widgets Work on iOS 17?

MoneyCoach interactive widgets let you add common income or expense transactions from the Home Screen without opening the full app flow first. They are useful for fast, repeated entries where you already know the account and category.

What interactive widgets are for

Use interactive widgets for transactions you add often and want to capture quickly.

They can help with:

  • Common expenses.
  • Common income entries.
  • Favorite categories.
  • Favorite accounts.
  • Faster entry from the Home Screen.

Configure the widget

After adding a MoneyCoach widget, edit the widget configuration and choose the account and category you want it to use. Set up separate widgets for different repeated actions if needed.

Common mistakes

  • Using one widget for too many different transaction types.
  • Forgetting to configure the account or category.
  • Using a widget for transactions that need notes, attachments, or detailed cleanup.
