Enable ALL Categories for allowance allocation
Ari Sofer
Hi Greenlight team, why can I only split the allowance among “Spend Anywhere, Saving, & Giving?” Can you lease unlock / enable AT LEAST the other preset categories? (Restaurants, groceries, etc…) I wrote in about this and was advised to set the allowance to autofund “spend anywhere” and then manually move the money around. If I need to set a reminder to do it every week that defeats the entire purpose of auto-allocating the allowance!
(It would also be nice if we could allocate by DOLLAR AMOUNT instead of percentage).
Thank you for doing this as soon as possible. It would really make the app more user friendly and helpful for us busy parents!

I would love to be able to auto split the allowance into a savings goal, my son asks me every week to move his savings money into his current savings goal

addmg my $0.02 for a) Greenlight adding more preset spending categories. Your competitor TrueLink (while lacking other features) has
35 preset categories
, including clothing stores, online shopping, auto repair, medical, etc… B) At the very least, please allow US to create new custom categories that span more than one website / vendor!
Thanks for helping to improve the app.
