Home and calendar

Your balance today, the days ahead, and how to keep it all true.

  • What's on your Home screenHome shows where you stand at a glance: your balance, what's coming up, and your net worth.
  • How Backdur works out your balanceEach day's balance is the day before plus that day's money in and out. Your forecast is that, carried into the future.
  • What "safe to spend" meansSafe to spend is the most you can spend now and still stay above your balance floor until your next income lands.
  • Use the calendarThe calendar shows every payment, plan and entry on its day, with your balance on every day, past and ahead.
  • Set your real balanceType what your bank shows, and every later day carries on from it. This fixes a balance that looks wrong.
  • When money is late: the pause buttonTap the clock on a payment that hasn't come in or gone out yet. It stops counting until it lands.
  • Skip a payment this timeSkip means this payment isn't happening this time. It stops counting in your balance.
  • Answer "Did these happen?"Home asks about savings and investment top-ups from the last 7 days, so your numbers stay true.
  • Search your calendarSearch covers up to three years back, to the end of this month.
  • Hide your balance and amountsTap the eye beside your balance to hide every amount as ₦••••.
