Add "buying date" and "buying amount+monetary value" option

Open SolainOG opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

I would want a way to add a secondary option for the "usage" button that adds a prompt of:

  • amount bought,
  • date,
  • and currency value.

Problem solved: This way, I can track my consumption better and reduce it properly (ex. I smoke more than usual on the day of buying the stuff, so I can take it into better account if I can know when I bought the stuff.

Additional sub-feature I would also like to know when I buy it, how much I buy, and for what price etc for average monthly/daily/yearly buying is possible, using the already existing graphs and data info 'screen'.)

Describe alternatives you've considered none

Additional context Really appreciate the work on the app, it really helped me reduce and track my usage, thank you :)

This warms my heart. Thanks for telling me this :)


As I understand your suggestion, what you want is to track packages purchased, and not necessarily the individual uses. Is it better to make both?

The first thing that comes to mind is

And if you are using a package, the app will calculate for you the cost per gram, and everything else would work exactly as if you added an use with all the information

I was thinking of adding a calendar to the Stats page, but it it's an annoying kind of object to implement, so I've been postponing that forever.

This feature would fit in this hypothetical calendar as well as the usage graphs. Do you think that makes sense?

@LeoColman Hey, thank you for responding!

The feature you drew up looks exactly like what I meant, if you can add a 'calendar' tab it would be helpful but not that needed imo

Maybe add another line of "Since X" for purchases under the current line that already exists, just a though, it might be easier to implement

Again, thank you!
