The Spending over time chart tracks your spending across a configurable time window so you can spot patterns, see if a change in habits is working, or just understand the rhythm of your spending.

Where to find it

The trend chart is on the Spending page - see Spending Overview for the full layout.

Picking a time range

The time-range options carry different labels on each platform:
On the web - Days, Weeks, Months, Year.On iOS - 30D, 3M, 6M, 1Y.
Each option re-buckets the same underlying spending data at a different granularity - daily bars zoom in on recent days; the longest range smooths out short-term noise so you can see the trend.

What the chart shows

  • Total spending per bucket - the height of each bar / point
  • Average per period - shown alongside the total in the chart header
  • Trend direction - visually obvious from the slope; the chart also calls out the period total at the top

What it’s good for

  • Spot patterns - holidays, summer travel, end-of-year shopping all show up clearly over a long enough window
  • Track changes - did you cut subscriptions a few months ago? The trend should show a step-down in the months after
  • Plan ahead - your typical monthly average is a starting point for planning future months
Look at trends over at least 3 - 6 months. Two months of data is too noisy to draw conclusions; six months reveals real patterns.
