You can now create your own spending and income categories. Your category shows up everywhere the built-in ones do — in charts, in the transaction review, and when recategorizing.

We all spend money differently, and a universal category list doesn't know your life. That's why I added custom categories: you name them your way, and Martia treats them as seriously as the built-in ones.

How it works

In settings, under Categories, you create your own category: give it a name, pick a parent category (say, “Padel” under Entertainment), plus an icon and a color. The parent is what tells your category whether it's an expense or income — so it counts correctly in your monthly summary.

Your category shows up in the transaction review next to the built-in ones, so you file spending with one tap. In charts it appears as its own item, right next to its parent.

You can rename it or change its icon and color at any time — your transaction history follows the change, nothing needs redoing.

Frequently asked questions

Your category appears as its own item with its own color, sorted right next to its parent. Nothing disappears from your history.

For now you can freely edit it — name, icon, color, and description. Renaming instantly tidies up your whole history, so a typo is never a problem.
