Labs Feedback: Bill Splitting 📝

[Anilm3]

I opened a bug about this because I’m having the same problem:

[Android] Payments assigned to category aren't reflected on budget

Issue: When I receive a payment on my account and assign it to a specific category, the spent amount for the category and the entire budget is never adjusted. When someone pays money into my account I want to adjust the specific category because then the budget goes out of whack. Details to reproduce: Just send a payment to your monzo account and assign it to a category, the amount spent for that category won’t be adjusted. OS: Android Device: Note 9 App Version: 2.13.1 Screenshots:

I also made some suggestions to improve the budgeting tool, especially on bill splitting situations:

Real-World Budget Use Cases

I’ve been using the budget feature to try and have a better understanding and control over my spending lately, and it’s really great. I’ve noticed that there are some use cases which are currently not supported and some others which could be improved in order to ensure the accuracy of the budgeting tool. In my case, most of the problems I’ve been having are related to splitting bills with non-monzo users, although maybe they apply to monzo users too, but I haven’t had the chance to use any form…

Maybe if we make some noise we can get some improvements on the budgeting tool, but I guess it isn’t the most popular feature.
