# A savings widget for iPhone, with Siri and Shortcuts Quick Save

Goaley: Savings Goal Tracker has a Home Screen widget that shows a goal's progress and a button to save the next planned amount. You can also save or snooze a contribution from its notification, and use Siri and Shortcuts for Quick Save, so logging a deposit takes seconds.

## What does the Goaley widget show?

The widget shows one goal at a glance: how long is left, how much you have saved, the target, how many contributions you have made, and a progress bar. A button saves the next planned amount in one tap.

*What each way of saving is best for*

| Where | What you can do | Good for |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Home Screen widget | Check progress and add the next planned contribution | A quick glance and one-tap saving |
| Notification | Save or snooze a planned contribution | Acting on a reminder when it arrives |
| Siri and Shortcuts | Quick Save | Hands-free saving or automations |
| In the app | Record a custom contribution | Amounts that differ from the plan |

## How do I add the Goaley widget to my Home Screen?

1. Touch and hold an empty area of your Home Screen until the icons jiggle.
2. Tap the Add button in the top corner.
3. Search for Goaley and pick a widget size.
4. Tap Add Widget, then tap Done.

Widgets are part of Goaley Pro. If you have not upgraded, the App Store page shows what Pro includes and the current price.

## How does Quick Save work with Siri and Shortcuts?

Quick Save records your next planned contribution without opening the app. Because it is available to Siri and Shortcuts, you can ask Siri to run it or build it into an automation, such as a reminder on payday.

## What if I saved a different amount than planned?

Open the goal and record a custom contribution. It takes a few seconds, and it is added to the goal's history.

## Do I need to connect a bank account?

No. Goaley has no bank connection, so a widget tap or a Quick Save records a contribution in Goaley. You still move the money yourself. See [privacy](https://trygoaley.app/features/privacy) for how your data is handled, or the [savings plan](https://trygoaley.app/features/savings-plan) page for how amounts are calculated.
