Designing a Personalized Financial Wellness Dashboard

Users often struggle to get a clear picture of their financial health, as most financial apps focus on transactions rather than providing holistic financial insights. A personalized financial wellness dashboard can consolidate multiple financial data points and provide tailored recommendations to help users improve their financial well-being.

Most financial apps lack a user-centric approach to financial wellness, offering generic insights that do not cater to individual needs. Users need a financial dashboard that provides clear, real-time insights on savings, debt, spending patterns, and financial goals. The challenge is to design an intuitive financial wellness tool that helps users manage their money effectively.

Generic insights fail to provide actionable financial advice.
Poor visibility into financial trends leads to bad money habits.
Individuals looking for a holistic view of their financial situation.
Budget-conscious users seeking financial improvement strategies.
Families managing multiple financial goals.
