Do you have any plans for multiple files feature Thanks

Beancount Mobile was designed to work with one file at a time, but you can switch to a different file on a 'Settings' page. Do you need something else to work with multiple files?

The include statement support is different from being able to switch between multiple beancount files which also will be nice. For example, you can have one main file which contains common options inside and includes multiple files for each currency, like this option "include" "us/us.beancount" where you define accounts, transactions etc. At the end if you use the main file all properties as accounts should be available from the included files in the add new transactions dropdowns for example. This is how works in fava

I'd also find support for the include directive helpful. My setup keeps the accounts and transactions in different files so I can easily swap to a new transaction file each year without having to define the accounts in each one.

That makes working with this app a bit clunky, particularly when I need to open a different app to move it over.
