Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

The hard part here is the UI design.

Yeah it might be.
Or maybe using local mobile OS features with react call (?): I noticed that only numeric keyboard is poping without +-/x signs.
So maybe delegating this feature to the mobile os directly (just guessing here).

The new new budget modal would be a good place to add this feature
