What's new in v5.1.1
- Added a setting that allows the input screen to start from the "Income" screen instead of "Expense."
- Fixed bugs in the budget management feature.
(Issues where settings were not applied or dates were shifted for some users have been resolved.)
- Fixed a bug where the carryover and balance might not be displayed on the report screen.
- Added an option in the budget feature to exclude "expenses from categories without a budget" from the total budget amount.
Example: You can now exclude amounts for categories like "Entertainment" (if no budget is set for it) from the "Total Budget." This allows you to focus only on the categories you have intentionally budgeted for, without worrying about unplanned expenses.
You can enable this from the button at the bottom of the budget settings screen.
