Add Cospend Category and Payment method fields

[avasqueztieck]

Hi, thanks for all the work!

It would be very helpful to be able to select Cospend's Category and Payment Method when creating a bill.

Thanks.

Hi, thanks for the input. That is great information to have, unfortunately my focus as an open source developer currently is on another project, so it could take some time until I take care of it. If someone else wants to step up, I'll gladly provide help.

Is there any chance this would be implemented in the near future?

Adding a category from a drop down list would be really nice!

Hi, I recently started working on PayForMe again. You asking made it definitely more likely. As I'm currently only working on the app in my free time, I can't make any promises though.
There is currently a beta version including some other new features if you would like to test them: https://testflight.apple.com/join/o6XAnU9g

The categories will also appear earlier there then on the public app

Is it possible to have another link for the beta version?

@InteractionEngineer
Are you currently working on this, or have plans to work on in the future? I'd like to use category and payment method in the future again.

If you don't mind, I may have time to take a look at it soon propably!

@magshee Nice! Feel free to assign this issue to yourself. I actually did plan to rework the app's user flow and provide a coherent figma file (design specification) in the next couple of weeks (during September at the latest). Maybe keep this in mind when implementing and try to make the background logic flexible / independent from the UI implementation so it's easy to adjust when the new user flow sees the light of day. I'd be fine to make it available in a more bare bones version though so users can profit from the new functionality early on. And please also keep in mind that this would only work for Cospend projects, as IHM has not implemented such categories, afaik.
