The transaction list tells you what already happened. Kesef's calendar also tells you what's coming: in one view you see how much you spent each day and which payments lie ahead, with card instalments and expenses that repeat. And the day before each one is due, at 10 a.m., you get a reminder.
The month in a grid
In Activity, at the top, switch from List to Calendar. Each day that's gone by is shaded by how much you spent, so you can see the month's heavy days at a glance. Upcoming days that have something scheduled get a dotted border: an instalment, the rent, a subscription. Tap a day and what you spent, or what's coming, appears below.
Above the grid, the summary separates what's happened from what's left: "Spent" and "Upcoming" (or "Received" and "To receive" for income). It tells you how much of the month is already committed before it arrives.
Real instalments, estimated recurring
What shows up ahead comes from two places. Instalments are transactions that already exist: when you log a purchase in instalments, Kesef creates all of them, one per month, with their amount. Recurring expenses, on the other hand, are projected: the calendar shows when the next rent or subscription is due, marked as estimated ("$15 estimated from recurring"), and the transaction is logged when the date arrives.
In list view, the Upcoming filter shows the same thing as a list: everything coming up in the next 30 days, labelled Scheduled.
A reminder the day before
The day before a recurring payment or an instalment is due, at 10 a.m., you get a notification: "Netflix is due tomorrow", with the amount, or "3 payments due tomorrow" if there are several. It's on by default; turn it off in Notifications → Payment reminders.
Reminders are scheduled two weeks ahead each time you open the app. If you go more than 14 days without opening it, they stop arriving until you open it again.
What the calendar doesn't show
Kesef doesn't know your card statement's closing date or due date: each instalment falls on the day of the month you made the purchase, not on the statement due date. To understand how those two dates work and when you actually pay for a purchase, there's the card and instalments guide.

Frequently asked questions
Where is the calendar in Kesef?
In Activity: at the top you switch from List to Calendar. You see what you spent each day and, with a dotted border, the days that have a payment coming up.
Which payments show up as "upcoming"?
Instalments from credit card purchases and recurring expenses, like rent or a subscription. Recurring ones show as estimated until the date arrives.
Does Kesef remind me before something is due?
Yes: the day before each recurring payment or instalment, at 10 a.m. It's on by default and you turn it off in Notifications → Payment reminders.
Does it show my card's closing date and due date?
No. Kesef doesn't know when your card statement closes or is due; each instalment falls on the day of the month you made the purchase.
Is the calendar part of Kesef Pro?
No. The calendar, the upcoming filter and payment reminders are free.
