A little weary of this site so I am asking for input from any members.

I don't trust any app/site that tells me to "link my accounts". They ask for your accounts' information including passwords, otherwise how would they know what you have in those accounts?
I keep track of my finances myself and might be considered one who micro-manages my finances. I create spreadsheets on which I list my upcoming expenses for the quarter(s) on top and what I have in my accounts at the end of each month on the bottom. Then I use the Vertex Family Budget Planner to keep track of my actual spending each month.
The FBP comes in real handy when I'm doing my taxes. I downloaded the sheet that can be opened in my Google account. It couldn't be easier. Just about every category of spending is listed already and one just has to input the figures. The spreadsheet self tallies giving cumulative tallies for each month and for the year.

the reality is you are more at risk from your own garbage pail . i have been using fidelity full view since it originated with all accounts linked with never an issue . the only issues i have were from outside ... i find it excellent for seeing where we stand spending wise each year with no input from me at all ... there is nothing i have to do to see totals ... it knows every penny coming in and going out automatically. last think i want to do is start tracking my own spending and entering data in spread sheets . no way .
