What users say

Users praise the design and automation but gripe about Apple-only support and the annual price.

“Copilot has a bunch of automated features that make things easier imo, like setting up filters that auto-sort certain transactions into certain categories.”
Reddit, r/personalfinance
“As a Windows power user, I'm pretty frustrated by the de-prioritization of building a Windows app. Thinking about moving to Monarch or Simplifi - has anyone else made the jump?”
Reddit, r/copilotmoney
“Copilot Money earned its reputation as the most beautifully designed budgeting app in the App Store.”
