Allow categorization and tagging of uncleared Bank transaction
My bank clears transaction only after a month. By that time I would have already forget what type of transaction I was making. I understand that manually editing uncleared transaction value could mess up the automatic system. But I believe there is no harm at all in assigning category/tag to uncleared transaction. As a benchmark, other financial tracking app like Mint has been doing this and as a paying subscriber I am quiet disappointed that Wallet is unable to do this, so please consider this ability: allow user to assign category/tag but lock transaction value to uncleared transaction.

As a long-term user and paying subscriber of Wallet, I wholeheartedly echo the sentiments expressed here. The current absence of the ability to assign categories or tags to uncleared transactions poses a significant usability challenge. Let's break down why this feature matters:
1. Memory Fade: Transactions often take time to clear, and during this period, our memory of the transaction context fades. Assigning a category or tag right when the transaction appears in the app ensures accuracy and relevance.
2. User Benchmark: Other financial tracking apps, such as Mint, have successfully implemented this feature. As users, we naturally compare experiences across platforms. The lack of this functionality in Wallet leaves us feeling somewhat disappointed.
3. Balancing Automation and Flexibility: While we appreciate the automated categorization system, allowing users to manually tag uncleared transactions strikes a balance. It doesn't disrupt the automatic system but empowers users to maintain clarity.
4. Freshness Matters: The best moment to categorize an expense is when it's fresh in our memory. Waiting for days to revisit transactions becomes cumbersome, especially for frequent card payments.
In light of these points, I urge the Wallet team to consider implementing this feature. Locking the transaction value for uncleared transactions while enabling categorization would enhance the overall user experience. 🚀
Let's hope that the developers take note of our collective voice and prioritize this enhancement. If you haven't already, consider upvoting the related post to amplify its visibility. Together, we can make Wallet an even more powerful financial management tool! 💪👛

+1, this is the biggest usability issue for ne. Otherwise Wallet is a great product.
Even if my transactions are cleared after like 3 days, this gets super annoying, if I make like 5 card payments every day.
The best moment to categorise an expense is right after it appears in the app for the first time, because it's still fresh in your memory.

Yes, after few days I forget and I need to get back to it. It is such a giant pain point for me right now.

I agree 100%, even waiting for a couple of days is too much in my opinion.
You could upvote the following post, hopefully would make the devs add it on the priority list:
