Better before the updates – EveryDollar: Personal Budget Review

I used this app all the time a couple years ago, and I LOVED it back then specifically because it wasn’t actually connected to your bank account and didn’t pull transactions automatically. In my experience with other apps that DO pull that automatically (like Clarity), the transactions are always late and categorized incorrectly so there is a lot of manual effort to sort it through. I also prefer to not have it linked for security reasons. However, this app has since been updated with Ramsey, and although you don’t need to link an account for this app to work, it’s really annoying and cluttered because most of the functionality is built for that now. Also, for some reason it doesn’t allow me to edit any planned budget item after it’s made- it defaults back to zero if I try to edit, so I have to delete it and start again. The search for a plain and simple budget app to manually input my budget and expenses has to begin again, I think :(
