Thanks for reporting these, I don't always have time to test the app and the version I host is pinned to an old commit so I appreciate you reporting these.

there are few other issues regarding the logic related to this custom saving and other things. for example to add any kind of savings (retirement, Savings) it needs to be associated with a budget which doesn't make sense to me. also i don't know how to add money to the custom savings without just editing it. Need to wrap my head around these things first, it is getting a bit confusing. probably i will need to create another ticket for this.

This change makes sense to me as people typically budget for savings. For instance- I may have some section of my income that I would only like to be allocated to either retirement savings or any of my savings goals.

With such opinionated Software, we should take more care in how we introduce these features. As such, I think it would be good to begin making features like these optional.

Thankfully, with the introduction of #12 we can simply wire these routes to be hidden or shown per user preference. I would absolutely love that PR.

I haven't used the app yet as my main tracker, so few things aren't clear yet, but i would be okay with the budgeted savings. but for the custom savings it doesn't seem to be tied with a budget or there is a way to add to it without just editing it.

Also i think it would be good idea to have some info cards about each component and also what things are set to be used monthly only or will continue for each new month.

Agreed. You may open a feature request for this.

Adding to savings and retirement via the budget as it gives you flexibility to add to it through income. Can look to changing if there is a better way?

As it stands there is a drop down in the spending items section which allows the choice of spend, savings, retirement.

Was looking at a seperate card to seperate like a transfered section and will continue to if it helps?
