In short

Mint-style overview that many moved to from Mint, YNAB or Copilot; accounts that stop syncing.

Strong 4x earning on dining and groceries; the annual fee stings and the credits suit city dwellers.

Many customers say it changed how they handle money, with zero-based budgeting that is worth the subscription once learned.
