UI overhaul - Modern fintech bento design system (LedgaText, Space, Radius, Motion). - Inter font via Google Fonts. - New PillTabBar + LedgaTopBar; 4-tab IA: Home / Activity / Insights / You. - Home rewritten as bento cards; new AccountChip leading slot. - Activity wraps Transactions + Trends behind a segmented control. - Trends gains a GitHub-style heatmap calendar. - You consolidates Settings into grouped bento cards. Insights (Phase C) - Rule engine + 6 rules: anomaly (z-score), recurring detection, fee tips, Fuliza outstanding, Fuliza auto-pay pairing, positive nudges. - Daily InsightWorker (3 AM); generates on screen entry for first-time users. - Natural-key dedup so dismiss/snooze state survives re-runs. - Home teaser surfaces the top active insight. Goals (Phase D) - New Goal entity + GoalContribution table. - 3 contribution rules: AllSavingsDeposits, ToRecipient, Manual. - Rule-based contributions compute live via SQL aggregation (no duplicate rows). Manual rule uses goal_contributions table. - GoalsScreen with progress rings + status badges; AddGoalSheet; GoalDetailScreen with contributing-transactions list. - "Add to goal" entry in TransactionDetailSheet for Manual goals. Multi-SIM (Phase E) - MpesaAccount entity captured per-subscription on SMS receive (SubscriptionManager.EXTRA_SUBSCRIPTION_INDEX with legacy fallback). - READ_PHONE_STATE permission (optional; falls back to "Line N" labels). - Every screen-facing query is account-scoped via TransactionRepository composing with the selected-account flow. - AccountSwitcherSheet on Home; AccountsScreen with rename / recolor / set-primary; BackfillScreen with 3-prong attribution (SMS-inbox auto, date range, per-transaction manual via TransactionDetailSheet). In-app updates (Phase F + G) - Chunked APK download with progress reporting. - UpdateRepository state machine (Idle → Downloading → Ready → Failed). - Full-screen UpdateScreen with parsed What's new / Fixes sections. - "Remind me later" persists dismissed version. - Background UpdateCheckWorker pre-fetches APK on unmetered network. - Home banner: "available" vs "ready to install" copy variants. - Proactive REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES permission prompt with settings deep-link before firing the installer intent. Parser quality - Hustler Fund "sent KshX to NAME" amount-first phrasing now matches. - "Give cash to AGENT" agent-deposit format recognized as DEPOSIT. - Fuliza auto-pay recipient labels rewritten as "Fuliza overdraft (auto-cleared / auto-partial)" for clearer transaction lists. - 8 new real-world regression fixtures from sanitized export. - Audit: 0 UNKNOWN against 6,565-transaction real history (was 838). Database - v3 schema: mpesa_accounts, goals, goal_contributions, insights tables. - transactions gains accountId (FK), note. - Explicit MIGRATION_1_2 + MIGRATION_2_3. Tests - 65 unit tests across parser (33), rule engine (14), goal rules (8), update logic (8), parser audit (1), insights dry-run (1). - Two test suites (audit, dry-run) read the local export when present, skip cleanly in CI. Design spec - LEDGA_REDESIGN.md captures the full direction + tokens + per-screen wireframes + phased PR plan. versionCode 3, versionName 1.3.0.

Ledga — Major Redesign Spec (v2)
Target visual direction: Modern Fintech Bento. Soft neutral surfaces, M-Pesa green as a single accent, big confident numbers, generous whitespace, rounded everything. Feels at home next to Revolut / Cash App / Monzo while staying friendly for a Kenyan family audience.
Scope: full UI overhaul + four new feature areas:
- Insights — smart, derived suggestions (recurring detection, fee tips, anomaly callouts)
- Goals — savings targets with progress + ETA
- Multi-SIM — switch between two M-Pesa lines on a dual-SIM device
- In-app update flow — surface release notes + one-tap install when a new APK is published
1. Design Tokens
These are the canonical names. The Compose Color.kt / Theme.kt files should mirror them 1:1. (They're also already saved into the pencil document via set_variables, so when Pencil starts cooperating we can wire them up as variables there too.)

1.4 Typography
Font: Inter (variable) everywhere. Numbers use font-feature-settings: "tnum" (tabular figures) so balances align in columns.
| Style | Size | Weight | Line | Letter-spacing | Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Display XL | 56 | 700 | 1.05 | -1.5 | Onboarding hero amounts (rare) |
| Display L | 44 | 700 | 1.05 | -1.0 | Home "Spent this month" |
| Display M | 32 | 700 | 1.1 | -0.5 | Goal current amount, trend hero |
| Title L | 24 | 700 | 1.2 | -0.2 | Screen titles (Home, Transactions, …) |
| Title M | 20 | 600 | 1.25 | -0.1 | Section headers, sheet titles |
| Title S | 17 | 600 | 1.3 | 0 | Card titles |
| Body L | 16 | 500 | 1.4 | 0 | Transaction recipient, primary body |
| Body M | 14 | 500 | 1.4 | 0 | Secondary body, descriptions |
| Caption | 12 | 500 | 1.3 | 0.1 | Day labels, meta info |
| Overline | 11 | 600 | 1.3 | 0.5 (uppercase) | Tab labels, section eyebrows |
| Mono S | 13 | 500 | 1.4 | 0 | Transaction codes (use system mono) |
1.5 Spacing scale
4 · 8 · 12 · 16 · 20 · 24 · 32 · 48 · 64
- Screen horizontal padding: 20
- Card inner padding: 20 (compact cards 16)
- Section vertical gap: 24
- Tight group vertical gap: 12
1.6 Radius
xs:8 · sm:12 · md:16 · lg:24 · xl:32 · pill:999
- Cards: 24 (lg)
- Sheets: 32 top-only
- Inputs / chips: pill
- Tab bar pill: 36
- Icon tiles: 14
1.7 Elevation
No drop shadows on light theme — depth comes from 1px --line borders + subtle surface-2 wells. On dark theme, no shadows either — depth via surface stepping (--surface over --bg).
The only exception: the floating tab bar uses a soft drop shadow on light (y:8, blur:24, color: #0E1311 @ 6%).
1.8 Motion
| Token | Duration | Easing | Use |
|---|---|---|---|
motion-fast |
120ms | cubic-bezier(0.2, 0, 0, 1) |
Press states, ripples |
motion-base |
240ms | cubic-bezier(0.2, 0, 0, 1) |
Sheet open, chip select |
motion-emph |
360ms | cubic-bezier(0.2, 0, 0, 1) |
Screen enter, hero number flip |
motion-spring |
spring(stiffness=300, damping=30) | Tab switch, FAB scale |
Numbers (balances, totals) animate from old → new value when changed (counting up/down). Spec: 600ms easeOutCubic. Use Compose animateFloatAsState + String.format.

3. Information Architecture
Old IA: Home / Transactions / Trends / Settings (4 tabs). New IA: Home / Activity / Insights / You (4 tabs) — but with more inside.
┌─ Home — overview, hero spend, quick stats, recent
│
├─ Activity — segmented [ Transactions · Trends ]
│ ├─ Transactions — day-grouped list, search, filter chips
│ └─ Trends — charts, top merchants, fees, heatmap
│
├─ Insights — smart cards (auto-generated)
│ • recurring detection
│ • fee tips
│ • spending anomalies
│ • category trends
│
└─ You — profile + grouped settings + goals
├─ Accounts — multi-SIM management
├─ Goals — list + add
├─ Budgets
├─ Appearance
├─ Notifications
├─ Data
├─ Backup
└─ About / Updates
Why this IA:
- "Activity" merges Transactions + Trends because users always toggle between "what happened" and "what's the pattern" — they shouldn't be two tabs apart.
- "You" pulls in Goals because goals are personal, not screen-scoped. It also hosts Accounts (multi-SIM).
- "Insights" earns top-level because the feature only works if users see it without going looking.
4. Screen Specs
For each screen below: status bar 62, then wrapper with horizontal padding --pad-screen (20) and gap --gap-7 (24) between sections, then pill tab bar floating at the bottom (where shown).
Bottom padding on the scroll content: 120 (tab bar height 62 + 21 padding + 32 breathing room) so the last item is never hidden behind the bar.

Behaviors:
- The hero
Spentnumber animates from last value to new on receipt of a new SMS. - Tapping the hero card → Trends (Activity tab → Trends segment).
- Tapping "Balance" small card → reveals "balance history" sparkline in-place (300ms expand, doesn't navigate).
- Tapping "Top category" → filter Transactions list by that category.
- Donut card uses Vico segments; legend is right-justified.
- Insights teaser shows the highest-priority unresolved insight; rotates daily.

Goal model:
data class Goal(
val id: Long,
val name: String,
val targetAmount: Double,
val targetDate: LocalDate?, // nullable → no ETA, only progress
val contributionRule: ContributionRule,
val createdAt: Long,
val completedAt: Long?,
)
sealed class ContributionRule {
// count every M-Shwari/KCB deposit as contribution
object AllSavingsDeposits : ContributionRule()
// count outflows to a specific paybill (e.g. school fees paybill)
data class ToPaybill(val paybill: String) : ContributionRule()
// user manually marks a transaction as contributing
object Manual : ContributionRule()
}
Progress is derived. ETA = (targetAmount - currentAmount) / avgMonthlyContribution * 30 days from today.
Add Goal sheet (full screen sheet):
- Goal name
- Target amount
- Target date (optional)
- Contribution rule (radio: All savings · Specific paybill · Manual mark)
- Color picker (one of the category colors)

data class MpesaAccount(
@PrimaryKey(autoGenerate = true) val id: Long = 0,

val phoneNumber: String?, // E.164 if available

Transaction.accountId: Long? is added. Migration:
- ALTER TABLE add column nullable.
- Existing rows stay null = "default" account.
- On next SMS receive, populate the
accountstable from SubscriptionManager and stamp incoming transactions.

Notes:
- The "Mark as contribution" row appears only if user has at least one Goal with
Manualrule. - Delete only removes from app (the SMS remains in Android's SMS DB), and creates an UNDO snackbar.

5. Implementation Order
The redesign maps cleanly to phased PRs. Each phase is shippable.
Phase A — Foundation (PR 1)
- Replace
Color.ktwith new token names + dark theme. - Add
MpesaAccountentity + DAO + migration. - Add
Goalentity + DAO + migration. - Extend
TransactionwithaccountId: Long?,note: String?. - New
BentoCard,StatCard,Chip,ProgressRingcomposables. - New
TopBarandPillTabBarcomposables.
Phase B — Visual Overhaul (PR 2)
- Rewrite Home, Transactions, Trends with the new components, tokens, IA.
- New segmented "Activity" parent screen.
- New You screen consolidating Settings + new entries.
Phase C — Insights (PR 3)
- Rule engine: anomaly (z-score against same-category rolling 4-week mean), recurring detection (3+ same merchant ≥21-day apart), fee tips, Fuliza warnings.
InsightsRepository+InsightWorker(daily WorkManager).- Insights screen + dismiss/snooze table.
Phase D — Goals (PR 4)
- Goals screen + Add sheet + detail flow.
- Contribution attribution on transaction insert.
- "Mark as contribution" entry point in TransactionDetailSheet.
Phase E — Multi-SIM (PR 5)
- Subscription detection on SMS receive (
SmsMessage.getSubscriptionId/ AndroidSubscriptionManager). - Account switcher sheet.
- Filter on all queries via selected account or "combined".
- Onboarding step 4.
Phase F — Update flow (PR 6)
- GitHub Releases polling.
- Banner + full-screen changelog.
- DownloadManager + install intent.
6. Open questions (decide before Phase A)
- Tab bar count: keep 4 (Home / Activity / Insights / You) or 5 (split Trends out from Activity)? Recommendation: 4 — keeps thumb reach generous, Insights doesn't fight Trends.
- Multi-SIM detection: Android only exposes
subscriptionIdon incoming SMS — not on already-imported ones. For historical imports we'll have to leaveaccountId = nulland let the user assign in bulk. OK? - Insight cadence: notify on new insight (push) or only show in-app? Recommendation: in-app only, with a daily-summary mention if any new insights exist.
7. What's intentionally NOT in this redesign
- Web / desktop companion — out of scope, app stays mobile-only.
- Bill-pay shortcuts — Ledga is read-only; it tracks, not transacts.
- Bank-account integration — M-Pesa SMS only.
- Cloud sync between devices — backup-only via Google Drive; no per-device sync.
- AI summaries — Insights are deterministic rule output, not LLM output. Keeps the app offline and predictable.
