The features focus on envelope based budgeting and do it well, which I love. However there are sometimes long periods where the connection I pay for to my credit union doesn't work and the answer is about a 3rd party provider. The bigger deal for me is that the app keeps crashing on my Android phone even after following all the instructions. The only thing I have found to help is to uninstall and reinstall.

Great app, it has been very helpful for me. Simple, practical features accomplish everything you need to get on a good budget and stick to it. The account linking through Plaid is a little frustrating, however, because it consistently runs 1,2 or even 3 days behind on transactions updates. Pending transactions that post to bank account do not register with the app even though the debited account balance does. Makes it difficult to use it in real time, it's more of a big picture guide.

This is the most extensive free financial app I've come across. Thank you MW!! It makes no sense to me, why apps meant to help you stop overspending "REQUIRE" you to add them as another monthly expense 😕! With MW I can manually create a helpful budget that works for me. Then, as my financial picture improves, I can choose to opt into their more convenient features. Most budgeting apps' free versions are too inadequate to be helpful, or have completely overwhelming ads! MW has done it right! ❤
