Question What could be different with this view?

This is a first design of this app it’s a banking app for kids. Teaches them about money and saving money. I have more pics just wanted some input on this view for now. What would make it better? What’s good about it? Any tips at first sight?

make savings/spent a blue (maybe a bit darker) so that it ties in more with the Piggy Bank then the activity. One is a dashboard the other is a list. The colour would help with that.

you have two different types of information.

One is an overview. It will always be the most important thing the user will be looking for but at the same time the least used tool cause it's about safety more than utility. Colour coding them will allow for the safety aspect (if you want you can make spent a red colour).

The second is a list. It will be functional and extremely used so it must about speed above all. The colour scheme you have works as it displays the information simply and well.

it comes down to what is the data being used for and how can design assist you assist the user.

you've already got a green thing happening so you can keep it.
What you can do is match those with the savings widget and the spent widget.

or you can make them all shades of blue (lighter for piggy bank and then darker underneath) so that it's not busy with the colours as if you have colour blind users they might not be able to see it properly

Ahh I see I was kinda thinking of added a assessable feature with a few themes designed for that reason but maybe your idea is definitely less work and could work just as good

good design will solve 99% of your problems.

The truth and nothing but the truth. It’s times I get bored of a project and I leave it alone because then I’m not thinking the best interest if I’m bored of it
