Notifications and account settings

A bell icon sits in the top-right corner of the app once you are signed in (on mobile, it lives under its own tab in the bottom navigation instead). It carries an unread count, and opens a list of everything your linked partner has done that affects your shared plan. It stays quiet until you have a partner, since partner activity is the only thing it reports.

It covers a good deal more than properties. You will hear about it when your partner adds or edits or deletes a property, posts or deletes a comment, moves the bill split, or updates the shared bill defaults, and equally when they change their own income, take-home pay, deposit sources, commitments, saved places or leftover target. Each entry spells out what actually changed, along the lines of "Sarah updated 12 Oak Street, mortgage rate 4.5% to 5.0%", rather than a vague note that your partner made a change somewhere. That applies to the personal figures too, so a change to their take-home pay arrives with the old and new numbers in it. Where it makes sense, tapping an entry takes you to the property or profile section it refers to.

New activity also arrives as a brief slide-in toast wherever you already are in the app, so you do not need the dropdown open to notice it. Delivery is near-instant, typically within a couple of seconds of your partner making the change.

Open the bell and there is a mute toggle at the top of the dropdown. It silences the slide-in toast on that device and touches nothing else, so your unread count and the dropdown history carry on exactly as before and you simply stop seeing things pop in the moment they happen. Muting is set per device rather than per account, so silencing it on a work laptop leaves your phone alone.

There is no email-notification screen or per-event-type preference yet, so everything above is all-or-nothing at the toast level. If that changes, it will show up here.

Your first name, last name and profile photo are all editable here. They are not a second copy of your details, since edits write straight back to the account you signed in with, which means there is only ever one version of your name and one photo to keep current.

A light/dark toggle switches the whole app’s theme. It is remembered on the device you set it on, rather than against your account, so switching to dark mode on your laptop will not also darken the app on your phone. Set it once per device.

A single sign-out button ends your session. Nothing about your data changes, everything is exactly as you left it the next time you sign back in.

Tucked into its own danger zone, being the one genuinely irreversible action in the app. Deleting permanently removes your profile and every property you have added, your comments, and the partner link too if you have one, along with your side of anything you were sharing. You have to tick a box confirming you understand it cannot be undone before the delete button will do anything at all.

If you are on premium, deleting ends it immediately as part of the same action. Unused time is not refunded automatically, though your statutory rights, including the 14-day cancellation period in the Terms, are unaffected. Once confirmed you are signed out automatically and shown a short goodbye. Your data is gone at that point rather than hidden or queued up for removal later.
