paid for the subscription so I could link my accounts automatically, but they rarely / never work. Im constantly resetting them or adding transactions manually. I want to like it but overall its very frustrating. I reached out via the live chat and the customer service rep said I'd just have to enter my bank transactions manually. Then I had a one on one consult, which was very helpful with learning some of the ins and outs. but the bank connections still don't work at all.

Thank you for this update, Scot! We're so happy that the one on one session was helpful, but I know it's disappointing when bank connections aren't working & we run out of troubleshooting options. Things can change quickly in the world of Direct Import, so I hope you'll check back in with us—we're always happy to look for updates. - Caity @ YNAB

Not very automatic. I read that this was a great app for bi-weekly budgets, from multiple forums and reviews. With that I expected that I could put in my pay dates, and my monthly bills, and it would automatically allocate my bills for that pay period. It does now. It still does it for the month and you constantly have to manual make adjustments and assign transactions. There's hardly any automation for a biweekly budget.

Hi Scott! Thanks for sharing about some of the frustrations you've been running into. YNAB is a bit more hands-on, especially at first, but our support team would love to chat about the features that may help with the automation you're looking for! If you're up for that, send us a message anytime in-app or at help@ynab.com. - Caity @ YNAB

solid foundation for a budget app, accounting for each dollar every month. but it struggles with credit cards, and I wish there were more analytics like for spending trends, maybe visuals of income vs spending, maybe a breakdown of budgeted funds. the features are a little sparse as is, for the over $100 price tag. I'll be debating whether to renew this year.

Hi Stefan! Thanks for your review and sharing about what's got you contemplating your renewal. I've passed along your ideas for additions to the Reflect tab, and hope you'll reach out to help@ynab.com if you have more for us, or if you'd like to chat about credit cards! We'd love to hear what isn't working and help however we can. - Caity @ YNAB
