Current account monitoring software for failing eyesight

Posts: 1,010 Forumite


I have been using Money Plus for several years to monitor our current account to make sure that we don't overdraw. Unfortunately my eyesight is failing and I cannot find any way of increasing the size of the program on my windows 10 PC screen, so would like to find a replacement. Having searched this forum, and Googled, I have downloaded several to try, but none of them seem to enlarge either.
Does anyone have any suggestions please? I don't need (or want) to connect it to the bank account as I am happy to enter transactions manually provided I can see it. Please do not suggest a spreadsheet (unless there is a ready to use one) as I have never learnt how to design my own. I don't mind paying a small one off amount but do not want something that I have to subscribe to.

Maybe a dumb question but have you tried changing the windows zoom using the accessibility features or used the magnifying tool?

Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

Not a dumb question at all. I thought I had tried the accessibility tools, but I did not know about the magnifier specifically rather than increasing text size, which made no difference to Money Plus. That seems to work at 150%, so thank you ever so much.0
