How receipts are sorted into categories

Every receipt is sorted by what the money was FOR, not by what kind of shop it was. That is why petrol sits under Transport, beside parking, public transit, tolls and taxis: together they answer one question - what does getting around cost me - which a fuel-only heading could not.

The chip on a receipt line shows both halves, the group and the detail, such as Groceries › Dairy.

If one is wrong you can change it: open the receipt, tap Details, and pick a category. That choice is remembered for that shop, for your account only, so the next receipt from it lands right.

At the top, the month card: a dial, what is left to spend this month and what that comes to a day, then what has been spent, the fixed costs still to pay and the budget. Below it, comparisons with last month, the last seven days and the year, and where the money went this month by category.
