I came back to try this for the third time after almost two years. I keep getting told it's the best budgeting app so it feels like it has to be a me problem. It still can't work correctly with PayPal. It can't add credit cards that are closed even if they still have debt in them (so much for tracking debt I guess.) Still claims your password is wrong when connecting banks if it takes too long despite copying and pasting. Guess il be back in another two years for nothing to change.

It sounds like you've run into more than your share of issues getting up and running, Jack. I understand why you'd feel frustrated! The life\-changing part of YNAB comes when you use the app to decide "what's the money for?" I'm hopeful we can help with direct import so you can get to the good stuff, so I'd encourage you to reach out! \-Blair@YNAB

I have been using this for years and love the clarity it gives to my financial life. It has helped me simplify my accounts, be confident with credit card spending, and build savings, both for the expected unknowns (maintenance for car, home, etc.) and goals I'm working towards. It involves a steeper learning curve and more day-to-day maintenance than similar options, but the increased intentionality it brings to my spending and savings has been so worth it!

while I like YNAB and feel like it is a good investment, I am not a fan of the latest update. Font is smaller, now I have to use my reading glasses to see the app, didn't have to before. there's way too much info, it feels cluttered. I don't like how you cannot easily see the details on a saved transaction when you go to edit. you have to click "see more" to see details. this adds no benefit to the app. the one thing I like is the option to easily see uncleared transactions.

Hi Alisha, thanks for posting! We're always looking to improve, and feedback was part of why the "See More" option was added. Would you be up for writing to us via the app or help @ynab.com about where you feel the app's cluttered or the font got smaller? ~ Lauren @ YNAB
