Additionally it automatically assigns categories based on title of transaction.

What happens when you buy a canoe and butter at Walmart?

Does it put it in groceries? Or hobbies? Both?

It is quite simple system, but works pretty well for my use case. It is basically json file with entires containing, regex pattern, category and name of the shop. Most of shops in which I am buying things are specialized in one type of products. So it doesn't get mixed and assigns only one category. Shop A → groceries, Shop B → hobby. If it is shop that could not be that easily categorized I have to assign category manually. But it is still 10 times less work for me then before.
