Display pie chart of total annual expenditure

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It is a little difficult to understand the share of each expense in the total, especially when the expenses occur in different intervals.

Let's assume you pay

  • 105€ annually for a newspaper
  • 89€ annually for a streaming service
  • 22€ monthly for your phone subscription
  • 15€ weekly for transportation
  • 8€ monthly for server rent.

Now, you want to find out how much each expense contributes to your annual expenditure and what's the most expensive one.

Describe the solution you'd like

A pie chart showing the percentage that each expense contributes to the annual expenditure is intuitively understood by anyone.

Describe alternatives you've considered, if any

  • Implement a toggle in the settings to optionally normalise all expenses, so that in the main screen, each expense is converted to an annual amount, e.g. “264€ per year” instead of “22€ per month”

  • Instead of a pie chart, just display the percentage for each expense as plain text.
