The way I usually handle this is to create a “Miscellaneous” entry each month for the potential variance or for unexpected things. I usually set to this to $50-$100, which ends up being pretty accurate over time.
We have begun design investigation into a redesign of the main browser version of the app and part of that will be a major improvement to the way categories work, including what you’re suggesting – an envelop system or variant of that where excess budget funds can go towards the next month’s budget or into a “slush fund” of some type.
