@Ward#37610 Thanks, interesting. All the other "calculations" eg categorizing and budgetting happens on the phone in the app?
Authentication is done by bunq's Oauth or is the full blown API key required?

[edit] just installed the app and it indeed says everything is stored on the device, which is sweet :)'

[edit2] uh oh, connect is accepted, see it in my event list as wel

@Ward#37617 Do you guys happen to be members of a Bunq Pack?

No I am not a member of a pack, riding solo here :)

[edit]
I'm also having issues with BunqDesktop see the issue here on github, it seems there's an issue with Oauth for certain users. I'm now contacting support to see if they can do something.

@Ward#37617 I recently discovered that OAuth doesn't work properly with Pack members because of a bug on bunq's side.

this is indeed correct, the underlying issue is the same that is causing joint accounts to be unavailable in OAuth.

@Ward#37607 I think you are in the next batch 🎉.

WHOOP :D

@Ward#37610 What the server basically does is connect to the bunq api, and then normalise the response into a bank agnostic structure. This means I can easily support more bank APIs in the future, without having to update the iOS app.

Make sense, is this open source or are you planning to make it open source. Im happy to contribute/help 😊 Even if you wanne keep it a private repo.

Support couldn't answer me directly about the OAuth issues and will get back to me about it. Once I have an answer I will post it here :)

@OGKevin#37657 this is indeed correct, the underlying issue is the same that is causing joint accounts to be unavailable in OAuth.

Does that mean the issue I'm having is because I also have a joint account?

Whoop I got the invite ! YES

Here is some initial feedback!

1. See the transactions names in Eypo vs Grip. Grips transactions names seems to be cleaner for some reason. From which endpoint are you getting this data ? It seems that you are using the description as name instead of the merchants name :thinking: This will lead to the following in the next picture.
2. the Paypal Pathe thuis is clearly not in the right category. Would be nice, if I could click on it here and change its category.

here an example of transaction name differences. which makes it hard for it to recognise that all those "weird" payments are from NS and therefore does not auto categorise them.

So I think, in the transaction details you can show the description or even deep link to the bunq app(not sure if thats possible) and actually use the payment's country party name instead of description. Or use a combination of both! But show the counter party name in the overview and the description in the detailed view. And use both for matching/categorising purposes.

@Ward#37676 I'm using the description field of the Bunq API, optionally replaced with the merchant/store name if the categoriser finds a matching merchant

hmm and what if I manually assign a category, it stil shows the description instead of the merchant name.

@Ward#37676 Are those numbers the payment descriptions like you have them in the Bunq app?

yes.

@Ward#37676 That's exactly how it is supposed to work actually. Perhaps I'm using the wrong fields from the API 🤔.

It seems that all my transactions that I've manually categorised in the eypo app have the description. If its a manual transfer to an IBAN it shows the IBAN instead of the description.

@Ward#37676 It's a bit hidden, but if you swipe left on the row in the transactions list, you can assign a new category. You have a point that this should be added to the detail screen as well.

Yes, but what I mean is :P it would be nice to be able to recategorise on that screen as well, instead of having to go to the transaction overview to properly categorise it :D.

@Ward#37676 I wanted to do deep linking to the Bunq app, but unfortunately you guys don't have a deep link for that (hint, ;)).

I'll forward this to an iOS dev :wink:
