YNAB

Hey YNABers! This week's Sketchy Advice will be a bit delayed because I'm JUST NOW getting over an absolute WHOMPER of a virus. 🫠 I've wanted to talk about this topic for a long time, so I want to make sure I'm not pulling it out of the oven half-baked.

In the meantime, let's settle an age-old question:

Where do emojis belong in YNAB?

The purpose of the icon is so you can scan the list quickly so you need them all to line up vertically for easier scanning

For the single categories it‘s in the front but the groups actually have them in the back (though I have to keep the group names short in order to still see them when they‘re collapsed). 🤓

I do both! Front emoji is either a calendar or an envelope depending on if it’s a scheduled bill or just a category I’m filling up and then a related emoji on the back! 😅

Neither! They belong only to the FRONT of GROUP names not category names 😈
