Ask about a transaction, and I’ve got this

Where to find it

Open a transaction for the question. I’ve got this is on a bill, on a Christmas task, and on a gift. Both need two people who can edit. A view-only person does not get the buttons.

These two tools are how a household talks about a payment without a separate chat app. They stay inside the household.

Ask about a transaction

1. Open the transaction.
2. Find Ask your partner. The hint says only the two of you see this.
3. Type a short question. The box suggests “What was this for?” Press Ask.
4. The other person opens the same transaction, types an answer, and presses Answer.

I’ve got this

1. Open a bill, a Christmas task, or a gift.
2. Press I’ve got this. The chip changes to You’ve got this, or to the other person’s name if they claimed it.
3. Undo on that chip clears it.

On a gift, the buyer field and I’ve got this are related but not the same. The buyer is who is purchasing it. I’ve got this is the claim. On a bill, the row can show that someone has this. The bill is still paid by whoever pays it in real life. Jarful does not pay it.

What this does not do

A question is not sent to the bank, and I’ve got this does not transfer money. The notification, if one is sent, does not include the amount.
