First version of this is now live!
- You will be able to log positive transactions and add them as a general income (for now, no special categories, just pure logging as income)
- They will appear at the top of the app and have a special section
- You will be able to click it to see a calculation (income - spending = left) so you can see how much you have spent from your income
- You can turn it off at any time :)
v2 will have a few more things added (charts/widgets) and zero based budgeting!

in progress
Finally tackling this!
I have 2 phases planned for positive transactions/income:
- General income/inflow tracking
- You will be able to log positive transactions and add them as a general income (for now, no special categories, just pure logging as income)
- They will appear at the top of the app and have a special section
- You will be able to click it to see a calculation (income - spending = left) so you can see how much you have spent from your income
- Widgets/charts will be available
- Zero based budgeting mode
- Phase 2, will be off by default and you can turn it on
- Very similar to YNAB you can allocate that inflow positive income towards you budget
- This drastically changes the nature of the app and the homescreen/categories will change to reflect the zero based budgeting "mode"
let me know anyone has thoughts on this! aiming to get phase 1 out by next week :)

Would be cool to have a way to input your monthly income also, so that you can see whats left after your spending

Hey everyone!
Thinking through this one now because I might start working on this, but realized that this feature (positive inflows) might go hand in hand with zero based budgeting (Similar to YNAB where you assign the inflow to each category and then as you spend it gets used)
Does anyone have a use case where they would want inflows but don't plan on doing zero based budgeting? Would love to hear :)

Chris I would use it to keep track of my monthly income. Every month my income is different and I would like to be able to see the changes in my income through the year and also make sure I’m saving money every month

Chris yes I use zero budgeting.
I just want to track expenses across multiple accounts

Chris I’d basically just want zero based budgeting with this. I think it could be an awesome Ynab replacement.

Chris I just want to use it to keep track of money my friends or partner send me for subscriptions or rent.
For example I pay for Spotify and friends send me money each month, which I want to add as a positive transaction.
Same for rent, I pay it to my landlord and my partner sends me their share.

Add option to add income categories too just like expense categories.
For reference check money manager app.
