Settings
Configure Wealthfolio — base currency and timezone, accounts and portfolios, data, market-data and AI connections, and appearance.
Open Settings from the bottom of the sidebar. Options are grouped into Preferences, Finance, Data, Connections, and Extensions, plus About.
Preferences
General
- Base Currency — the currency every total and report is converted to. All balances and transactions are converted using market exchange rates (see Exchange rates).
- Timezone — the timezone used for dates, daily buckets, and yearly contribution-limit boundaries.
- Automatic Updates — when enabled, Wealthfolio checks for app updates on startup.
Exchange rates
Exchange rates are added and refreshed automatically from your market-data providers. The General page lists the current rates so you can review them, and lets you add a custom rate for any pair the providers don’t cover:
- Click Add rate.
- Choose the From and To currencies and enter the rate.
- Save.
Wealthfolio also handles currency variants automatically — for example pence vs. pounds
(GBp ↔ GBP, 100 : 1) for securities priced in cents.
Manually added rates aren’t auto-updated, so review them periodically.
Appearance
- Theme — Light, Dark, or follow your system.
- Font — choose Mono, Serif, or Sans for the interface.
