More than 50 custom categories šŸ™ƒ

Hello yes itā€™s me. I request this in every thread that it comes up and Iā€™m putting it out here for votes.

Do I expect a lot of votes? No.

Would I like this feature? Yes.

I am at 50 categories and have just had my first haircut since pre-pandemic and have had to put it in personal care which is not ideal :mask:

So. Thatā€™s it really. More than 50 custom categories pls.

Voted :+1:

I donā€™t need more than 50 categories, but Iā€™d like you to have them!

Voted for this reason.

I think the sheer fact youā€™ve hit the limit, means you should get more.

^^ Same.

Partly because Iā€™m in awe of how organised you are with them. When you first said you had 50, I thought ā€œThatā€™s loads, surely you donā€™t need all thoseā€ and then when you listed them, they all make sense!

Iā€™ll only vote if we can import/export them so I can have @Alexxxxx list without having to create them all myself :sweat_smile:

You could make a category just for bribes

Curious as to what goes into Personal Care if a haircut wouldnā€™t make the cut?

Things like chapstick, hand cream/sanitizer, and medicine (whether just paracetamol or a prescription).

Haircuts being in there isnā€™t the worst but given itā€™s a much ā€˜biggerā€™ event/purchase and obviously a lot more costly, would appreciate it being its own thing for top level visibility.

I just had a look into my YNAB at my ā€œPersonal Careā€ category. I split mine in at least 6 ways that are appropriate to show on the internet:

Yeah I would like dentist to be a separate one too but didnā€™t wanna get too into it :weary:

Interesting that your clothing sits in the same place as health etc. but I can see the logic alongside barbers.

My clothes and accessories (I guess thatā€™s like your apparel?) are their own top level categories rn.

Yeah honestly I had so much debate about how I would structure it. If this was in Monzo and I could only have 50 ā€œTop Levelā€ categories, I totally would do the same.

But with the power of Sub Categories, this sort of feels like my ā€œCategory for all things self improvementā€, wether health / image / etc.

Thatā€™s the beauty of subcategories though.
