Intuitive transaction direction selection #23

As a user, I'd like the selection of whether a transaction is an expense or an income to be more intuitively doable so that I don't keep being confused by it when a transaction is an income although I intended it to be an expense.


Hints & Thoughts

  • To enter an expense I intuitively tried to enter a negative number
  • When that did not work I tried to tap the plus icon to toggle it to a minus
  • Only after a lot of confusion, I tapped on the FloatingActionButton just out of "maybe on of these buttons does what I want so I'll just press them randomly".
  • The FloatingActionButton is too far away from the amount field so that you don't link them mentally right away
  • One way to fix this is to add a drop down selector for that right above the amount input and not display the + in front of it
  • Another way would be to detect the direction automatically by it being a negative number or a positive one. This would be closer to how people calculate their expenses usually, so I'd personally favor that.
