💰 FINHOVER
🏦
Welcome to Finhover!

Finhover keeps track of where your money comes from and where it goes, on this device only. Nothing is sent to a server. The next few steps take about a minute.

📂
Your Workspace

A Workspace is what a transaction is for: personal finances, a business, a side gig. Each one keeps its own categories, budgets, and reports.

✅ Your first Workspace is already set up. Add more anytime under Set up → Workspaces.
🏦
Financial Accounts

A Financial Account is where the money actually moved: checking, savings, a credit card, or cash. One bank account can be used across several Workspaces.

You can add one now under Set up → Financial Accounts, or later when you import a statement. It's optional for entries you type by hand.
➕
Your first transaction

Type one in on Add Transaction, or import a CSV statement from your bank on the Transactions page. Finhover sorts imported rows into categories and flags likely duplicates and transfers for you to confirm.

Nothing from an import is saved until you click Import Selected.
💾
Back up your data

Your data lives only in this browser. An encrypted backup is a single file you can keep anywhere and restore on any device. Export one from Settings or the 💾 Backup button.

Finhover will remind you in Needs Your Attention once you have a few transactions and no backup yet.
Your plan

Have a license key? Enter it here, or skip and add it anytime in Settings → License.

🚀 Getting Started

1. Add your first transaction: Click "Add Transaction" in the sidebar. Fill in the type (Income/Expense), date, amount, category, and vendor. Click "Add Transaction" to save.
2. Set up Workspaces: Go to Workspaces to add personal finances, a business, a nonprofit, or another activity. Each Workspace has its own categories and budgets.
3. Set a budget: Go to Budget Goals, select a month, and enter monthly limits for each spending category. The dashboard will show progress bars.

⬆ Importing Bank Statements

Go to Transactions → Import Statement. Export a CSV from your bank (usually under "Download Transactions"). Upload the CSV, map the columns (Date, Vendor, Amount), review the auto-categorized transactions, and click Import. Finhover remembers your column mapping for next time.

🔄 Workspaces and Financial Accounts

Workspaces show what a transaction is for. Financial Accounts show where the money came from or went. One bank account or credit card can be used across several Workspaces.

💾 Backing Up Your Data

Go to Settings → Backup & Restore and click "Export Backup." This saves all your data (transactions, accounts, budgets, goals, everything) as a JSON file. To restore, click "Restore Backup" and upload the file. Back up regularly — your data lives only in your browser.

📋 Auto-Sort Rules

Auto-Sort Rules automatically categorize and route transactions. Go to Auto-Sort Rules and create a rule like: "If vendor contains FACEBOOK → move to Business account → set category: Sales & Marketing." Click "Apply All Rules" to retroactively apply rules to existing transactions.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Receipt Storage—

Finhover will move receipt files out of browser transaction storage into expanded receipt storage. Transactions and receipts remain backed up. Each receipt is copied and verified before its old copy is removed, one at a time, and you can stop and continue later.

☁️ Cloud Backup (Google Drive)

Connect your own Google Drive to automatically back up your data to a "Finhover Backups" folder. Your data stays in your Drive — Finhover never stores it on any server. Finhover can only access files it creates.

Google DriveNot connected
⚙️ Setup: enter your Google OAuth Client ID
Cloud backup needs a free Google OAuth Client ID (one-time setup):
  1. Go to console.cloud.google.com → APIs & Services → Credentials.
  2. Enable the Google Drive API.
  3. Create an OAuth client ID (type: Web application).
  4. Add this page's address under Authorized JavaScript origins.
  5. Paste the Client ID below.

Note: Google sign-in won't work when the file is opened directly from disk (file://). Host the page (or use a local server) so it has a real web origin.
