Hi community, does anyone know of a way to see the monetary difference between the amount you have in a pot and the savings goal (if any) that you’ve set for that pot? I really don’t care if I’ve achieved 89.63% of my goal as it is meaningless to me. What I’d like to know is how much actual money I still need to put into the pot to achieve my goal but I can’t find a way to see that. Of course I could use a good old fashioned calculator but this seems like such a fundamental to me, I can’t think why it’s not an available option - unless it is and I’ve missed it. Any thoughts on this please?
No, there isn’t a way. Your best bet is to change the pot title when you add/remove money.
Hi, thanks for your reply but I’m not sure I understand what changing the title of the pot will achieve. Maybe I’m being dim (entirely possible) but could you please clarify?
“£150 needed” add £10, edit to “£140 needed”
Ah I see now. Yes that’s certainly an option but my pots are called “Holiday” and “Birthdays” and the like and I often add pretty random amounts in pounds and pence. I just figured if Monzo can tell me what percentage of my goal I have achieved immediately after adding £186.72 for example, it could work out how much is left to go just as easily and a lot quicker than me and my calculator. Maybe I’m just being lazy and the more Monzo does for me, the greater my expectations 
2+ years after I first posted this, it still really irks me that this isn’t an available thing. Every time I see a savings pot with a goal in it, I have to work out from the percentage that I’ve saved - which has been calculated for me…! - how much more I need to save in actual £s and pence. Why on earth is an app as clever as this one not be able to just tell me the amount left to reach my goal instead of how much % of my goal I’ve saved? It might only take me a few seconds to work out but it might take other people a lot longer or they might not know how to do it at all and I keep thinking it must be so simple for Monzo to do it in a nanosecond. Would this need some horribly complicated code or am I really just the only account holder who cares? I am genuinely intrigued.
You’re not the only one Soapy. I feel the exact same way. However whenever it’s brought up in these community forums, the topic is lucky to get a reply at all. I fear we’re the only ones who care about this.
