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.

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?
