Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

I am going through and importing all my data for the year after switching from a different program. I am having to go back and forth between my accounts and the budget tab to create categories.

Having a way to just add a category just like adding Payees would make this way easier

Describe your ideal solution to this problem
