Fixed: Safe-to-Spend could be wrong if your payday is near the end of the month

If your payday falls on the 29th, 30th or 31st, Sooma could sometimes miscalculate which pay period you're in — occasionally flipping your Safe-to-Spend from positive to negative for no real reason. This is fixed. Thank you to the customer who reported it.

Improved: Settings page trust & reliability pass

Reset all data now actually resets your account, not just this device — it previously did nothing for anyone signed in.
Editing your income now has a real Undo, and tells you honestly when a bank-detected income figure is the one actually in use.
Added a safety buffer setting (how much to hold back before anything counts as "safe to spend").
Dismissed bills or income sources can now be restored any time from Settings — not just in the few seconds right after dismissing them.
Added links to our Privacy Policy and Terms, and a visible app version, right in Settings.
The currency selector now makes clear it relabels your numbers — it doesn't convert them.

Removed: Import backup

Now that your budget, bills, goals and history all sync automatically to your account, restoring an old local backup file was more likely to cause confusion than help — so we removed it. Export (downloading a copy of your data) is still there whenever you want one.

Earlier

Sooma added first-party, privacy-respecting analytics (no third-party trackers), a weekly email digest, automatic recurring-bill and recurring-income detection from your bank feed, safety around goal contributions and self-transfers so they're never mistaken for spending, and multi-region support (UK, US, EU, AU, CA). More detail on all of it is always available if you ask.
