# About This Calculator

A Checkbook Balance Calculator (or check register) is a simple but powerful tool for financial awareness. While banking apps show your cleared balance, they often don't account for pending checks or scheduled payments.

By manually tracking every Deposit and Withdrawal, you maintain a "real-time" view of your available funds, helping you avoid overdraft fees and stay within your spending limits.

How To Use

  1. Set your **Starting Balance** for the month or week.
  2. Enter a description and amount for each new transaction.
  3. Choose if it's a **Deposit** (adding money) or **Withdrawal** (spending money).
  4. The **Current Balance** updates instantly as you add or remove items from the list.
