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?

The desktop web app has an "add group" button after the bottom of the groups, but this button is not available on mobile.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

An "add group" button, which can use a similar mobile UI (like adding a category), which then adds the group.

Teaching and learning

Discoverability should be similar to the desktop web UI in positioning -- at the bottom of the groups.

Oops! Apparently this feature does exist. You need to click on the Actual Budget icon, and "Add Category Group" is in there.

Maybe this feature request can be re-intepreted as making it more discoverable!
