![]() I paid up front for a year to see if the move to subscription does actually improve online services, but if it does not then I will have to invest the time to move my data to another app.įrom my data cleanse efforts I have also found: If they had invested their time in a decent Forecast instead of "Goals" the app would be much more useful to me. They also seem not interested in developing anything that would be useful to everybody - eg a decent Forecast report that integrates budgeted spending. I also resent that when they added "Goals" it is all oriented towards US market and mostly gibberish if you are not in USA. Effectively I am paying to subsidise the US market which relies on expensive screen-scraping Direct Access service, which is now banned in Europe. I rather resent that as a non-American I have to pay for Gold (and another wack on top of that because of 1:1 exchange rate), I get a much inferior service as stock prices are end of day only and there is no support for mutual fund prices at all, and no bank downloads. If you’re going to charge foreign customers more, then make the product better for them.Įxactly my thoughts too. But the real kicker for me, the thing that keeps me from upgrading, is that I’m penalized twice for not being American: once because I have to get the Gold level subscription, and again because the support for foreign investment is poor. savings goals, dark mode), I’d be more interested. If the company had focused on improving existing core features rather than introducing new features that are not needed (eg. Can I track Canadian mutual funds because I pay this premium? Nope! In general, I like to support companies that make good software, but I feel that as a Canadian I am forced to pay a premium for the Gold subscription when in fact I get an inferior experience because I’m not American.įoreign currency tracking is the major benefit of the gold subscription, but tracking Canadian stocks is already inferior to US stocks (inconsistent data from the upstream provider). I feel similarly to you, although I don’t have the same issues. I'd be interested to know the issues that others face that have not been addressed. These are the issues that I've come across which haven't been addressed and I don't see being addressed in B8Īlso if the cost of running hardware is part of the reason for the massive cost increases then why are they not seeking to offload some of that cost by implementing CloudKit or iCloud (and put our data in our control). The auto stock price download downloading trash for a period of 3-4 months where prices went from 3.nnnn to 3nnn.n to 0.003n.The manual stock price update screen is a tiny screen that requires way too many interactions to enter large amounts of data which is compounded by.The APIs do not recognise a large number of non US traded funds and.The inability to manually upload a CSV file of stock prices because.Transposition of Memo and Payee fields for Amex downloads. ![]() ![]() I have reached out the Banktivity on the massive cost increase that B8 represents to non US customers and highlighted that there are a number of non trivial issues that remain unaddressed that undermine my faith in the move to subscription.įor me there are a few real showstoppers that prevent me spending the A$165 per annum to migrate to B8
