I used to use it but it stopped working once banks started using 2FA. Now, I use it for a proxy (no links but manually entered values) just to track net worth trends.
I used to like it for budget breakdown. Is this working for others?
TFA works fine on PC/Empower. Occasionally you have to reconnect but not too often.
Since Empower bought it there are two noticeable quirks. The first is that its categorization of transactions has gotten worse. It used to report Costco Gas as gas/fuel, and Costco as groceries. Now it no longer separates charges at the gas station from the store, and calls them both "rewards", which is not even an expense - it is income. It also now reports DW's hobby job income as consulting, where it formerly correctly categorized it as wages. So I have to change those when they come in.
Second is that it regularly reports that accounts need to be fixed, when in fact they are updating regularly overnight. The worst offender is my 401(k), which is with Empower Retirement
But, aside from a few glitches it works pretty well to track your cash flow and investments all in one place. I take a few minutes once every week or two to review cash flow and fix a few transactions (e.g., it thinks the liquor store is groceries - I made a separate category for booze
). With data now going back to 2018 I can see that my forecasts for semi-retirement spending were on target.
Pro tip - you can manually enter dates in the From box. It took me a couple of years to figure that out, I previously thought you could only see one year back but it will display many years. Good for looking at average spend over time.
