Vylo

How does the review queue work?

Confirm a category, change it, or skip the transaction until you know what it is.

The review queue brings together transactions that need your attention. It saves you looking through every purchase to find the uncertain ones.

Why is a transaction here?

Vylo may not have enough information to choose a category confidently. A merchant can also sell several kinds of things, so a reasonable suggestion may still need your decision.

Vylo uses saved merchant choices and built-in matching first. With the bank-account owner’s consent, OpenAI can help identify eligible unclear transactions. Anything that still needs a decision remains for you to review. See how sorting works.

What does reviewing it do?

You choose the category and confirm the transaction. If that merchant should normally use the same category, save the merchant choice too. Leave that option off for a one-time exception.

Skip leaves the transaction for later. Use it when you need to check a receipt or ask someone in your household. An empty queue is less useful than an accurate one.

Why did an item come back?

Check whether it’s a new purchase from the same merchant and whether the earlier change saved. If the same reviewed transaction keeps returning, email hi@myvylo.com with one example.
