What's new

Performance & Parsing Fixes - Improved: Switching between Dashboard and Analytics is noticeably smoother - Fixed: Some legitimate transactions (like airtime bought on a near-empty balance) were being rejected, now parsed correctly - Fixed: Reversed transactions are now tracked properly instead of being silently dropped
