In the same way that your total spend for each day is rounded up and displayed at the top of each day, it would be helpful to have a summary of how much is due to go out in pending transactions. For example, on the home screen rather than just listing [Company Name] and [Amount], [Company Name] and [Amount] etc. at the top adjacent to PENDING could be the amount

The current use case - a joint account into which money is transferred, and needing to know, at a glance, how much money to transfer to cover pending transactions

I dont know how joint accounts work, but doesn’t this already exist with a bills pot? It tells you how much is left to pay from the pot each month, so you know how much to put in 🙂

Bills pot? Not sure what this is, unless you mean, create a pot for bills and then schedule transactions accordingly?

Yup,

Create a pot and set it so the bills come from that, it’ll tell you what’s left to pay, and you can then just schedule a set amount per month to come from it 🙂

There was this thread that got merged the other day which is similar

> I was just thinking it might be useful to have the total value of all transactions occurring the next day displayed on the feed. I can see all scheduled payments for the next day, which is really useful, however if there are a lot of items there I have to go through them and calculate the total amount of money moving around myself. I would like to have a total at the top, where I’ve circled below, so that I can see at a glance exactly how much money is going to be moving around on the next day. …
