The Concept of a Primary Currency

In Moneko, one currency is always designated as your Primary Currency. Think of this as your "home" or "base" currency.

What the Primary Currency Does:

1. Default for New Entries: When you tap the + button to log an expense, Moneko automatically selects your Primary Currency.
2. Widget Display: Home screen widgets and system shortcuts use the Primary Currency for a quick glance at your balances.
3. Account Profile: Your preferred currency is saved to your secure profile, ensuring a consistent experience when you log in from new devices.
4. Aggregate Trends: While you can view transactions in many currencies, your main financial health rings and monthly summaries often use the Primary Currency as the standard for comparison.

Tracking Multiple Currencies (Moneko Plus)

For users who manage money in different regions, Moneko Plus unlocks the ability to select multiple "Active" currencies.

How Multi-Selection Works:

• Feed Filtering: Your Home feed will show transactions from all selected currencies. If you spend in USD and EUR, both will appear in your recent history.
• Card-Level Visibility: Spending cards (like "Where the money went") will filter their data based on your selection.
• Organization: You can reorder your selected currencies in the selector modal to keep your most-used ones at the top.

Note: Free users are restricted to one active currency at a time.

Currency Conversion and Rates

Moneko Plus includes a built-in Currency Converter and supports live exchange rates.

• Manual Conversion: Access the converter via the Currency Selector or Settings to quickly check rates between any two currencies.
• Historical Tracking: When you log a transaction in a foreign currency, Moneko can record the exchange rate at that moment, ensuring your historical data remains accurate even as markets shift.

Troubleshooting

My currency isn't appearing in the feed

Ensure that the currency is checked in the Currency Selector. Even if a currency is your "Primary," it must also be part of your "Selected" set to appear in the dashboard feed.

I can't select more than one currency

Multi-currency selection is a Moneko Plus feature. If your subscription has expired or you are on the free plan, the app will automatically enforce a single primary currency selection.

Incorrect exchange rates

Live rates are updated periodically. For the most precise records, we recommend checking the rate at the time of purchase and manually adjusting it in the transaction details if your bank's rate differed significantly.
