Allow for simple calculations in the amount field

Sometimes there is a need to add, subtract or calculate a percentage of a given amount. Would be nice to be able to do so directly in the amount field. This is particularly useful when adding transactions manually, but also for editing existing.

This would be a huge benefit in splits when tax needs to get added to each field or I need to total a few items from the receipt.

Transaction/budget amount inputs act as simple calculator

When inputting budget or transaction amounts sometimes I'll need to perform simple calculations (add, subtract, multiply, and divide) to figure out what the value should be. Not a massive issue to open another app to do this, but would be nice if the value inputs for transactions or budgeted amounts allowed for the calculations to be done using the inputs themselves.

Simple Formulas on Budget Cells

It would be helpful to allow simple formulas like addition and subtraction in the budget cells. For example, 75+25 would populate the cell with 100. Or 100-25 would populate the cell with 75. This is a feature in EveryDollar and I found it to be useful when shifting a certain dollar amount from one budget category to another.

I think this would be very useful. My girlfriend and I often divide our payments and I would love to just type "amount/2" in the field and have it automatically calculated.

This is one of those features that I used the most in YNAB... Not having to do mental math when adding money to a budget for an anticipated expense was a huge advantage.

Allow simple math when filling out or adjusting budgets for the month. For example, when typing 10+30 set budget to 40.

Man I forgot I had requested this a while ago, but a very emphatic second vote from me! I tend to go through receipts and break things down by category (i.e. Dish soap isn't a "grocery" even tho it comes from Kroger) and being able to just sum them up in the field, would be AMAZING.
