Forecast & cash flow

Every other app shows you where the money went.

NetWorth+ shows you where it is going. A projected net worth with its assumptions written on the front of it, a day-by-day cash-flow forecast that catches the three-day hole between rent and salary, and a what-if tab that answers “can I afford this?” with facts instead of a verdict.

Day-grained, not monthlyConfidence stated, not impliedNo bank login

Four tabs, one question each

What the Forecast screen answers

  • OutlookWhat is my net worth in 3 months, a year, five years
  • Cash flowWill I run short before payday, and on which day
  • What ifWhat happens if I earn more, spend less, or buy this
  • HistoryWhat actually happened, as evidence for the rest

In short

Forecast is a screen in NetWorth+ that projects your finances forward from the ledger you already keep. It has four tabs. Outlook projects net worth at 3 months, 1 year and 5 years in three bands — conservative, expected and optimistic — built around a return rate you state rather than one the app invents. Cash flow projects your liquid balance day by day for the next 90 days, so a bill leaving on the 25th and a salary arriving on the 28th shows up as a three-day shortfall rather than being netted away by a monthly average; it also reports safe-to-spend and how many months you could cover if income stopped. What if re-runs the same engine with one input changed — more income, less spending, or a large purchase — and reports the difference. History is the analytics view of what actually happened. Every projection carries a confidence score with the reasons behind it, and every assumption is shown alongside the figure it produced. No bank connection is required.

The problem

A monthly average cannot see the hole you actually fall into

Most budgeting apps model a month as one number in and one number out. Real money does not arrive that way.

Rent leaves on the 25th. Salary lands on the 28th. Between them is a three-day gap that a monthly model cannot see at all — it nets the month to a comfortable surplus and says nothing, while you are the one moving money between cards to get to Friday.

This is why the cash-flow half of the NetWorth+ forecast is measured in DAYS, not months. Dated commitments are charged on their own dates. Everyday spending is spread across every day. The lowest point in the window is reported as a figure with a date attached, because that is the only form of the answer you can act on.

The other half is a different question entirely

“What is my net worth in five years” is a monthly question. Every input recurs monthly and a day-level answer would invent precision none of them have. So the projection is monthly, the cash flow is daily, and the app does not pretend they are the same screen answering the same thing.

What the forecast counts that others do not

  • Money friends owe you, and money you owe them — carried as a real asset and a real liability
  • Credit card balances on their actual statement cycles, not as a flat monthly figure
  • Loan EMIs split correctly into interest and principal, so a repayment is not treated as money burned
  • Accounts in other currencies, converted once at today's rate rather than mixed raw
  • Scheduled and recurring payments the app already knows are coming

Outlook

A projection that shows its working

Three bands, not one line

Conservative, expected and optimistic, spread around the rate you stated rather than three rates the app picked. A single line reads as a prediction. Three read as what they are — a range.

Today, 3 months, 1 year, 5 years

Four milestones read off one curve, so a three-month figure can never disagree with the five-year one. They are literally the same numbers the chart is drawn from.

Assumptions on the front

Typical income, typical spending, saving rate, how many months were averaged, and the return you assumed. Change one and the figure changes in front of you. Nothing is read from a setting at display time.

It will not invent a return rate

The default is zero. An app that suggests 8% is making a claim about markets. With no rate set, the curve shows accumulated savings — the one part of a forecast that does not depend on anything unknowable.

Cash flow

The next 90 days, one day at a time

Safe to spend

What is genuinely spare after the commitments the app already knows about are covered. Investments are excluded on purpose — a forecast that counts a portfolio as available for next week's rent would never report a shortfall, which is the one thing it exists to do.

Lowest balance, with its date

Not just the closing figure. The dip in the middle is the one that costs you a fee, and it is the one a monthly summary hides.

Runway if income stopped

How many months your liquid money covers your actual spending if the salary stopped tomorrow. A useful number to know before you need it, and one almost no consumer app reports.

Already committed

Rent, EMIs, scheduled transfers and expected income are charged on their own dates. Everyday spending is spread over the rest — and deliberately excludes anything already counted as a dated bill, so nothing is charged twice.

What if

The same engine, run twice, with the difference reported

1

If I earned more

Move a slider and watch both curves at once — the one you are on and the one a raise would put you on. The gap is the answer, and it is stated in your reporting currency.

2

If I spent less

The same, downward. Useful for deciding whether a subscription cull is actually worth the annoyance, or whether the real money is somewhere else.

3

If I bought something big

A car, a ticket home, a deposit. The app reports what cash you are left with, whether that is under the emergency fund you set, whether a shortfall appears in the window, and what it does to the long-run figure.

4

You decide, not the app

There is no green “Affordable” badge. NetWorth+ states what happens and leaves the judgement to you — a recommendation engine is a different product with different obligations, and we are not it.

A forecast from two weeks of data and a forecast from two years are different claims

Both produce a number to the cent, and showing them identically is the most dishonest thing a forecast screen can do. Every projection in NetWorth+ carries a confidence score — low, medium or high — built from things the app can observe: how many months of ledger exist, whether income looks regular, how many recurring commitments are known, and whether you have stated a return expectation. The reasons travel with the score, because “Low” on its own is a shrug, while “Low, because there is one month of history and no recurring income detected” tells you exactly what would improve it.

Under the hood

Three modelling traps most forecasts fall into

These are not academic. Each one produces a figure that looks perfectly reasonable and is wrong by a wide margin.

An EMI is an expense and a debt reduction at the same time

Pay 2,000 against a loan: your cash falls by 2,000 and your debt falls by the principal portion — say 1,700. Net worth falls by 300, which is the interest. That is the true cost of the month. Model it as an expense only and every borrower's forecast is far too pessimistic; model it as a debt reduction only and the repayment becomes free money. NetWorth+ keeps both halves.

Rent yield and market appreciation are not the same thing

A flat yielding 5% rent puts cash in your account every month: it raises income, lengthens runway, and can be spent. A fund appreciating 5% raises net worth and produces no cash at all. Treat appreciation as income and an app will tell you that you can safely spend money that exists only on paper — which is the worst thing a personal finance app can do. NetWorth+ asks which one an asset is, and the answer changes what the forecast does with it.

Not everything compounds

Only investment balances have a return applied. Cash in a current account does not compound, a property is not revalued from a market rate the app cannot know, and applying a portfolio return to a car would produce a number the arithmetic could not tell apart from a real projection. Everything else sits still and rises only when you add to it.

And a figure it cannot compute is named, not guessed

If there is not enough history for a category trend, the app says so rather than reporting “flat” as though spending were steady. If a five-year milestone falls outside the projection, it is left out rather than shown as zero — a row reading 0 would be read as a prediction of ruin rather than an absent value.

Where the numbers come from

A forecast is only as good as the ledger under it

Where this applies

Across the Gulf, and beyond it

The forecast does not depend on a banking integration, which is why it works in places the well-known forecasting apps do not reach at all.

NetWorth+ also covers India, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, the United Kingdom and the United States. Currency handling is not limited to the list above — three-decimal dinars and zero-decimal currencies are treated correctly rather than being forced into two decimal places.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need to connect my bank for the forecast to work?
No. NetWorth+ never asks for a bank login and has no aggregator behind it. The forecast is built from the ledger in the app — accounts you added, transactions you entered, bank alert messages you approved, receipts you scanned, or a CSV you imported. If the ledger is there, the forecast works.
How much history does it need before the forecast is useful?
It will produce something from the first month, and it will tell you that is what it is doing. Averages are taken over complete months only — the current month is excluded, because a forecast run on the 3rd would otherwise average in three days of spending as though it were a month and produce a cheerfully wrong answer. Confidence rises as months accumulate, and the screen names what is missing.
What return rate does it assume?
Zero, until you set one. The app will not pick a number for you, because suggesting 8% is a claim about markets rather than a calculation. Once you state a rate, the projection shows three bands around it — your rate reduced, your rate exactly, and your rate increased — which is a statement about uncertainty rather than a second opinion.
Is this financial advice?
No. NetWorth+ is a tracking tool, not a bank, a lender or a financial adviser. The forecast performs arithmetic on assumptions you can see and change, and it deliberately reports facts rather than verdicts — there is no “affordable” badge and no recommendation. What you do with the numbers is your decision.
Does the forecast include money my friends owe me?
Yes, if you use the shared-expenses side of the app. A balance owed to you is an asset and a balance you owe is a liability, and both are counted. This is the part that no expense tracker does — splitting apps stop at who owes whom, and net worth apps do not model the split at all.
What is 'runway' exactly?
How many months your liquid money — cash, current and savings accounts — would cover your typical spending if income stopped tomorrow. Investments are excluded from the liquid figure. It is a blunt number on purpose, and it is worth knowing before the month you need it.
Can I forecast in a currency other than the one I earn in?
Yes. The forecast runs in your reporting currency, and every account is converted into it once before the projection starts. Balances convert at today's rate; past transactions keep the rate stamped on them on the day they happened, so last March's dinner still costs what it cost.
Does the forecast work offline?
Yes. Everything the forecast needs is computed on your phone from data already on it. There is no server call to produce a projection.
