- Notes: Add any extra details you want to remember.
Click the "Add Expense" button to save it.
2. Choose Your Currency
At the top right of the page, use the dropdown menu to select your desired currency (e.g., ₹, $, €, £). The symbol will instantly update across the entire application.

The progress bar will automatically show you how close you are to your daily limit.
4. Analyze Your Spending with Filters
You can view your expenses over different time periods:
- Use the "View" dropdown to switch between `Today`, `This Week`, `This Month`, or `All Time`.
- For a custom view, use the "From" and "To" date pickers.
Click the "Filter" button to apply your selections and update the summary and charts.
5. Manage Categories
To track a specific type of spending, you can create your own categories:
- In the "Manage Categories" section, click "Add Custom Category."
- Enter a name for your new category (e.g., `Hobby`) and click "Save."
Your new category will now be available when you add a new expense.
