I’ve been finding it so incredibly annoying to sync my transactions when life gets busy. Especially reoccurring transactions with variable balances. How do you guys manage? Do you use the export/import tool ever?

I’ve had a mint.com account for years so I just use that. View the account, export the new transactions, and import into YNAB

….wait is it really that easy? Can I do it on mobile too?

[-] jofo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Pretty easy tho you most likely need to use a web browser.

Well that's something I never realized. My SO has an apple card but since it's hers it not on my budget. We've talked about adding her cards in a few times but never actually did since they don't get used often. Guess this is another reason not to bother.

I mean it’s always good to have everything on the budget just so you don’t have “secret” money you’re dealing with. But yeah no lie it really is a pain sometimes.

No doubt that's why we've talked about it so much lol. We try to just not use her cards but she still does sometimes and then she comes to me like hey I have to pay my cards tomorrow and then I have to readjust the budget to account for spending I was unaware of. we make it work though and thats all that really matters

I probably should use the import/export, but I don't. I just do it all by hand/manually. That's only viable since I'm the only one using my Apple Card, and even then it's only when Apple Pay is more convenient than my normal AMEX CC.

Yep same here. I probably should export but don’t. I just wish that someone had some magical way to convert the Apple Card Mint integration into YNAB. But that’s too many hoops and too many APIs to go through.
