Scenarios laid out like Your Plan, and How it works built one step at a time

This release is mostly about scenarios. They now read the way Your Plan does, and they're called one thing everywhere. On a computer, How it works has a new look too.

Scenarios, laid out like Your Plan

"What-if" is now "scenario" everywhere you read it, to match the Scenario tab. The panel the Scenario card opens is titled Scenario as well.

A scenario now opens in the same order as Your Plan: its name, then Retirement age, Spending plan and Surplus allocation, then its list of changes from Your Plan.

• Retirement age is changed in place. A changed age shows Your Plan's age under it, and the card is marked Changed. Type Your Plan's age back in and the scenario follows Your Plan again. Retirement age is no longer in the Add a change list, since the card does that job.
• A scenario you haven't loaded shows the same layout, read-only, with Load at the top. Once it's loaded, Unload sits in the same place, and Add to Your Plan sits at the bottom beside Delete scenario.
• On a phone, the first time a loaded scenario has a change, a tip by the drawer's handle says you can pull it down to see your projection with that scenario.

Saved scenarios is always there

The Scenario tab now always shows Saved scenarios. With nothing saved yet, it says what a scenario is for, with a few examples and a Create scenario button. Free members see one more line: scenarios last until the tab is closed, and saving them is part of Premium.

Retirement age folds away once it's set

On Your Plan, and in a scenario, Retirement age now folds to one line once your ages are in, such as "You 58 · Partner 60", so the cards below it sit higher. It stays open while an age is missing, and a tap opens it again.

How it works, one step at a time

On a computer, How it works now uses the workspace's own cards. Each Next adds the next part of the sum: Current Position, plus Your Plan, plus Scenario, times Model Settings, equals your projection. Select a card to jump straight to it. On a phone, the guided tour is unchanged.

Smaller things

• On a computer, selecting the card whose panel is already open now goes back one level, as the tabs do on a phone. From a step inside a scenario, for example, it goes back to the scenario, then to the list.
• In the upgrade window, the annual plan's usual price is now shown per year, the same way it's billed, instead of per month. "Cancel anytime" now sits on the free trial's line.
• Upgrade panels, such as the one on Model Settings, are smaller, with the button across the panel.
• Loading a scenario saved in the old GetFired now shows which parts of your workspace it replaces (Current Position and Your Plan) and which it keeps (your saved scenarios).
• Headings, card titles and spacing are more even across the workspace, and on a phone, notes and warnings use the full width of their box.
