Hi there,

A small idea that would be handy. The ability to track any money I have loaned to or from friends, and the payments in and out that relate to those loans.

For example,

Tracking a loan to a friend or family of £200 and associating specific incoming payments from them, to that loan.

Conversely borrowing £200 from a friend or family and associating specific outgoing payments to them, to that loan.

Would be super handy.

You can do this if you set up an offline account under the loan category and create a smart rule to look out for their transactions and knock it off the total automatically.

That’s great thanks, is there any way to have the offline accounts displayed in the home page? They are tucked away in the menu.

I have cashback and quests and both of those items are irrelevant to me, not something I need on my home screen tbh.
