Wishlist

The wishlist is your place for planned purchases and savings goals. A new phone, vacation, bicycle — add what you want to buy, set the amount and target date, and Finansify will help you track progress.

Item list

On the wishlist page you can see all your planned purchases as cards or a table.

Each card has a colored side bar:

• Amber — pending item (not yet purchased)
• Green — purchased item

The card shows:

• Name and notes (abbreviated)
• Amount
• Target date
• Category (with path)
• Budget link
• External link (if provided) — e.g. a link to the product in a store

Wishlist

In advanced mode on desktop a timeline chart also appears above the list — a visualization of planned purchases spread over time (past / current / future / overdue).

Items on the calendar

Wishlist items that have a target date set appear on the calendar as amber markers. This way you can see approaching planned purchases in the context of other financial events.

Tips

• Set a target date — even if it's not precise. It helps with planning and visibility on the calendar.
• Link to a budget — this way you see planned purchases in the context of a budget and know how much you have left after accounting for wishes.
• Use the URL link — add a link to the product in a store so you can quickly return to the offer and compare prices.
