Release Notes

Reconciliation just got easier for linked accounts! You can now see if your linked account balance in YNAB matches the balance at your bank without leaving YNAB. When it does, only one quick click and you’re reconciled. When it doesn’t, we’ll highlight the balance mismatch so you can figure it out quicker. This will make reconciling your linked accounts faster and smoother. So why not give it a try today and see for yourself? 🎉

April Fools is in the rearview, and today’s update is no joke! We’ve made updates to how we test each YNAB release before it hits your browser.

When logging into YNAB yesterday you may have noticed that we redirected you from app.youneedabudget.com (rolls right off the tongue) to the snappier app.ynab.com! Please update your password managers and other login tools accordingly. You can read more about the update at this informational webpage here.

Don’t mind us, just squashing early season bugs over here today. Today’s squashed list includes an issue when matching a split transaction to an imported one and a mind boggling reconciliation notice informing you that your balances are off by $0 are no longer.

New YNAB motto: We worry about 1000th place decimals so that you don’t have to!

Hmm, okay still workshopping that one.

Here’s to a new season! This week we have our virtual brooms at the ready and we’re spring cleaning software-style. Less release notes means more time for you to get your actual broom going…

Ever discover $20 shoved in the pocket of a coat you haven’t worn since last winter? That’s a great feeling. Discovering $20 (imaginary) dollars hiding in a closed account is not. We made closing an account a little friendlier so that doesn’t happen. Now go check your coat pockets for spare cash before you put them away for the season!

Welcome to another ⚙️ behind-the-scenes update—we’re paving the way for some enhancements to reconciliation. Type-A personalities, rejoice!

This release contains cosmetic improvements to our loan charts 💅 As well as many behind the scenes fixes to your favorite budgeting app starting with a Y and ending with a B.

Why did the geometry teacher love having a square desk? Because it helped him keep everything perfectly square-ed away! Our app might have rounded corners, this release helps keeps things tidy and organized.

Happy Monday! We’ve been fixing things behind the scenes, so your budgeting experience will be smoother than a fresh jar of peanut butter. No visual changes in this release, just pure back-end magic. Keep on budgeting!

Let’s begin March with good news! We’ve simplified the process of accepting an invitation to YNAB Together. Do you have anyone that you’ve been waiting to invite to your group? Now is the time 🎉

As we bid February adieu, we say bonjour to some important updates to our developer tooling. Today’s release is teeming with the latest versions of several key tools our developers use to make YNAB, well….YNAB!

This release is like a finely-tuned sports car – we’ve souped up the engine, fine-tuned the mechanics, and polished the exterior to deliver an all-around faster and smoother experience.

This update is all about behind-the-scenes optimizations and bug fixes. No visible changes, but trust us, your app will thank you for updating.

Today we bring you… another back-end release. 😊 In other news, tomorrow is Valentines Day. Anyone else forget to budget for it? 😬 Good thing I have some extra cash in dining out!

Get ready to feel the power of the unseen with our latest release! No flashy front-end changes, just pure back-end awesomeness. In other words: we fixed a couple bugs, cleaned up some code, and laid the groundwork to make those YNAB newsletters you subscribe to even better.

No, you’re not stuck in an IRL Groundhog Day loop, but yes, today’s release is another round of backend updates in YNAB.

Another Wednesday, another round of backend updates in YNAB. More time for [insert your favorite thing here!]. 🎉

Happy Monday, folks! January is almost ending, and we hope it was a great month for you to start manifesting your budgeting goals for the rest of the year. On our end, we’re continuing to work around backend changes to make your experience even better. Let’s keep up the good work 💪

Are you a person who secretly gets excited about jury duty, because you never met a thriller you didn’t love? With this release, you’ll feel right at home. Our latest updates are a mystery, and only time will tell what’s behind the yellow tape.  Put on your trench coat, find your magnifying glass, and get excited! The big reveal of fixes, features, and newsworthy updates is coming soon.

Windows users transitioning from YNAB 4 to YNAB can now migrate their budgets via the web app! Check our updated Migration Guide for more info.

Today, we’re adding support for deleting a transaction through our public API. New around these parts? Learn more about YNAB’s public API.

This release also fixes a few bugs around managing YNAB Together subscriptions and members. Haven’t invited anyone yet to budget with you? Treat this as a sign.

How are your New Year resolutions going? We promise, we won’t tell anyone. Ours included killing all the bugs and happy to say it’s going well!

In today’s release, we’ve added Bank Import Details to our public API. Not familiar with our public API? You can check it out here. We also fixed an issue where you might be invited to join a YNAB Together group, join said group, and then find yourself unable to access any budgets or do any actual budgeting. Not good, not the point. That won’t happen anymore.

Hello 2023! We’ve made the process of linking YNAB to your bank accounts even easier by simplifying the flow for setting up multiple accounts from a single financial institution in one fell swoop. Go forth and link! Plus, good news for those with smaller window sizes: your manage payees modal will now be sized appropriately and scrollable. We also addressed an issue where you could accidentally pair a loan account with a hidden category and tidied up the spacing of the Hidden Categories row. We hope your year is off to a great start, we’ve got a feeling it’s going to be a great one for YNAB.

This release is fixing a small bug with our loan payoff planner causing inflated balances with certain interest rate changes. And we sprinkled a few additional fixes to be shiny and ready for the holidays ✨

In today’s release we’ve fixed an issue where the message explaining how a monthly debt payment target will impact the corresponding loan’s payoff date was more or less unreadable in dark mode. We generally don’t believe in invisible messages—unless they’re messages written in invisible ink for the purposes of magical mischief (!!)—you can see this one now 👀

Today is a good day for loan account users! We’re releasing a new layout for our loan accounts that includes a new data visualization that will give you better insight into different payment possibilities. With the new progress chart, you can easily see the history of your loan payments and how you are tracking towards your debt payoff goals. We also revamped the paired category card within loan accounts to give you a better glimpse of your debt payment target information, and added the option to open up our payoff simulator directly in your budget! With these tools at your fingertips, debt doesn’t stand a chance 🔥

If you noticed something odd in your category progress bars when you recently overspent (?), fear not: today’s release reverts a change that caused overspending to be represented incorrectly in progress bars (and P.S. here’s how to turn the bars on if you haven’t seen them in a while). Speaking of visualizations, today’s release also includes improvements to the Loan Payoff Simulator so that the Original Payment Schedule more closely follows your actual payments.

It’s our favorite day of the week: Monday! To celebrate, we’re here with the updates you’ve been looking for. We’ve reimagined the account header to give you even more insight and control over your accounts. This update makes it easier to access the most important account information while reconciling against accounts in separate windows, allows you to edit account details directly from the account screen, and provides helpful definitions for uncleared, cleared and working balances. In mobile land, you can now set custom names for transaction flags in YNAB on Android! This update allows you to give your flags a useful name like “Health Care” or “Tax deductible” or, well, just about anything! That’s all for today. Happy Monday!

Workin’ at the car wash, the car wash, yeah! We’re currently polishing up the latest YNAB improvements, getting them ready for your test drive. Nothing to say yet, but see you at the next pit stop!

In addition to laying the foundation for some exciting upcoming features, today’s update addresses a bug that caused old targets to persist after linking an existing loan account to an existing budget category.

Clink clink. Chitty chitty! Bang bang. Ah, the sound of YNAB improvements and updates. Instead of dealing with the construction noise, why don’t you come back around soon to see the renovations? We can’t wait to show you our updated spaces.

Did you start inviting loved ones to YNAB Together? If not, stop reading this immediately and go do it!
In other news, the YNAB loading tree got a bit fancier this week 💅

Introducing YNAB Together! 🎉 Invite your partner, family, or close-knit group (up to five people) to your YNAB Together group where each receives their own account and login. Members can share budgets and success stories – and it’s all included with your subscription!

And as if it wasn’t enough: targets got a little bit shinier to prepare for the holidays, calculations are now taking parentheses into account, and we adjusted the logic of loan payments to properly reflect the amount of remaining payments at the start of the month.

If you love a page turner that keeps you guessing, then you’ll love this release. The next chapter of improvements gets really good. Happy Halloween 🎃!

It’s when you can’t see the bats…that’s when you know the bats are coming. By bats, we mean updates and improvements. Be aware! Be ready! But don’t be afraid.

Happy Monday, we’re back with another bug fix and a bunch of behind the scenes fun and games that I can’t tell you about quite yet. Today’s release addresses an issue where tracking accounts that had been migrated to the Loan Planner feature and then deleted would unexpectedly reappear. No one likes tracking accounts that unexpectedly return from the dead—at least not until Halloween 🎃

Welcome to today’s release notes, where we fixed some more “fun” (and by fun I mean not fun) bugs. First, we addressed an issue that would sometimes cause updating linked account connections to fail in peculiar ways—that one’s hard to explain, you’ll just have to trust me. We also fixed one where, when filtering transactions by first disabling and then enabling the Show Flags option, the Date and Category columns would progressively get smaller, illegible, and eventually disappear 😱. That won’t happen anymore. That’s not all! We handled another issue where the scheduled transaction header would stay in the same position and magically float on top of the transaction date as you scrolled through the register. It was magical, but not in the good way, and it also won’t happen anymore. Finally, we addressed two issues where expanding category groups was unexpectedly disabled. You can now once again collapse and expand category groups to your hearts content. Huzzah!

We’re starting the week with some bug fixes for loan account users. We fixed a bug that hides a scheduled payment from the Account Activity if it is part of a split transaction. Now, your split-scheduled transactions appear under Account Activity, just like any typically scheduled transaction! Bug bye 👋

Happy Wednesday! Today’s release is filled with some backend changes to support a larger release in the upcoming days. I won’t spoil it for you, but all I can say is: great things are coming for all of us together – and I’m not only talking about Halloween candy. 👻

Hello friendly budgeters! Today we have a handful of bug fixes for you. If you’re a budget-exporter and flag-namer, you’ll be happy to see flag names exporting with your budget data. The Credit Card Activity tooltip no longer shows gibberish. And the date selector no longer incorrectly shows a selected day when you switch months.

It’s Customer Service Week! We have a very apropos update today. This release contains a bunch of behind-the-scenes goodies that’ll help our Support team help you. We hope you never need help, of course; but if you do, there’s no one better than YNAB Support!

Another shoutout to the juicy bits we have in progress over on Up Next—as those projects near release we’re fixing bugs and cleaning up in preparation (read: no user facing changes included in today’s release).

Backend updates today to keep it all running (and to clear the path for all that’s coming Up Next!)

Friends, YNABers, Budget Nerds, lend us your ears! We gather here today to witness this release note, announcing nothing in particular to be witnessed today. But fear not, dear friends, YNABers, Budget Nerds! You shall be granted news and awarded knighthood for your patience in the very near future.

In today’s release we’ve fixed a bug where deleting a loan account on iOS would lead to the app crashing. Not a good look, won’t happen anymore. Happy Wednesday!

We are starting the week with an update on the Loan Accounts! You can now edit monthly interest and escrow charges in current or past months and add interest-only charges using the Add Activity dropdown. We hope you have an interesting week! 😊

This week (September 12th-16th) most of the YNAB team is away at our annual retreat, doing fun things and getting to know each other better. Because of this, we won’t do either of our scheduled releases. We’ll be back next week with renewed spirit, in the meantime, take a listen to the YNAB mixtape, see you soon!

You can now set custom names for transaction flags in YNAB on web & iOS! This update allows you to give your flags a useful name like “Health Care” or “Tax deductible” or, well, just about anything! You can also resize the flags column on the web to show/hide flag names to your heart’s desire. This feature is coming to Android soon!

It’s a great day to have a great day. Beyond that, not much to report! Continue having a great day, and come back next time for some seriously great updates.

Selecting a transaction to flag it was automatically approving said transaction. Talk about unexpected behavior! We fixed that bug and are adding a bunch of behind-the-scenes improvements in this last release of August.

Tired of your DoorDash orders all importing as Chipotle? (I got Taco Bell tonight, it’s entirely different!). For Payees where Renaming Rules exist you can now “Stop Renaming” a payee directly from the bank import details dropdown in the web app.

Today’s release contains myriad behind-the-scenes enhancements paving the way toward exciting things coming later this year. Get out and enjoy the summer while it lasts!

Today’s release features a win for all your little mouse-clicking muscles: now you can collapse and expand all category groups with one. single. click. (This feature will be coming soon to iOS and Android apps, too!)

Amidst a slew of quiet backend updates, we have one user-facing change today for all you file-based import fans. Now, when clicking into the payee field of a transaction imported through file-based import, you’ll see the original payee name in the Bank Import Details section to the right.

Ok it’s still not arms wide open time, but I am happy to report that in this release we fixed an issue where the “i” icon would bounce unsettlingly when editing transactions. No one likes an unsettlingly bouncing “i”. We also adjusted the date formatting for downloaded budget files. We had a brief dalliance with local date formatting, but we’ve returned to yyyy-mm-dd.

Welcome to this place! It’s another one of those days where everything we’re releasing is behind the scenes, but we still need to write a release note. Very soon, we’ll make like Creed and show you everything, oh yeah, with arms wide open, with arms wide open.

Happy Monday! We are starting the week with many behind-the-scenes fixes. 🔧

We are enjoying the middle of the week with improvements to our developer environments and processes! Happy Wednesday 😊

All behind the scenes fixes on the web today! While you’re here, though…do you know any college students who are heading back to their university classes this month? Let ‘em know that they can get a free year of YNAB through our college program. Yes, free! Wowza!

Hey hey hey, it’s Wednesday-day-day! Android users entering and editing transactions will notice that the toggle between outflow & inflow has a new look. Instead of seeing a +/- button, you’ll see a more user-friendly toggle to assign money as inflow (green!) or outflow (red!). This is part of a larger, phased update to mobile transaction entry making it easier and more efficient to enter and edit transactions on the fly.

It was an itsy bitsy teenie weenie yellow polka dot releasie. Aka just bug fixes going out today.

Happy Monday, YNABers! (Or whatever day you’re reading this…) We have a handful of bug fixes and small improvements on the menu this week. It’s now easier to access and manage Google Play subscriptions when you’re using the web app. Historical escrow amounts will be reflected accurately if you update the current month’s escrow. If your loan balance goes positive, it will accurately be reflected as paid off (congratulations!). And if you want to view upcoming activity from a loan account, you’ll no longer be met with a frozen window!

Hi, hello! 👋 Today’s release is packed with back-end improvements paving the way for exciting new goodness in Financial Wellness by YNAB-land. We also fixed a bug when exporting budgets on Windows. We’ll take this opportunity to wish you a very happy July 13th! We hope your mid-month budgeting is as clear and happy as the big blue sky in Seattle. (Fun fact: did you know Seattleites have a running joke that summer doesn’t start until July 5th? Now you do! ✨)

Is it time for a dog days of summer reference? Seems about right. While there isn’t much to see from your vantage point in today’s release, upcoming feature releases are already heating up! Interestingly, in writing this we found out that the “dog days” reference has nothing to do with actual dogs and instead is a reference to Sirius, the brightest star in the constellation Canis Major, which means “big dog” in Latin.

Mostly updates on the backend today, with one exception: since the Manage Connections button only works in the context of a specific budget, we removed the button from the settings dropdown on the budget picker screen. Once you’ve opened a budget, you’ll still see that option in the top left settings dropdown.

In today’s release we fixed a bug where if you highlighted a number in the budget screen inspector, and then dragged that number over one of your category rows, the height of that category would inexplicably change. We also improved category and account dragging behavior: previously, when reordering categories or accounts it would appear as though the category/account in question would first return to its original spot and then “jump” to its new one. No longer! Observe that smooth, smooth drag.

In today’s release, we’re making a few small changes to the Loan Planner screen—updating the header color and adjusting language for clarity and consistency. Also, did you hear the big news? We launched Financial Wellness by YNAB! It’s now incredibly easy for companies to offer YNAB as a workplace benefit (and even easier for you to copy/paste these templates and send to HR to get the ball rolling). Learn how teams can tackle financial stress here.

New week, new fixes! We are starting the week with a backend-focused release full of behind-the-scenes tweaks. Happy Monday! 😊

Happy Wednesday! In today’s release, you can choose if you want to pair your Loan to a Budget category or skip pairing when creating a new Loan Account. When editing a Loan Account, it’s also easier to unpair and re-pair your Loans from Budget categories. The account details pop-ups also have a new look. Self-service at its finest and looking better than ever! 😎

In today’s release, we’ve fixed a bug that left some parts of the Edit Transaction dropdown inaccessible in smaller browser windows. You can now scroll through the full dropdown regardless of the height of your browser window. Happy editing! 🎉

Today’s release includes behind-the-scenes tweaks to direct import and account creation that help us help you when troubles arise while connecting to financial institutions.

This release brings you a small but mighty improvement to weekly targets. Now, if you create a weekly target after the month has already begun, you’ll only be prompted to fund the remaining weeks in the month (previously you were prompted for the full month including weeks before the target was created).

Many behind-the-scenes updates in this release — beep boop beep — we also made adding a transaction a little bit faster — beep.

Once again, all of today’s release is adding building blocks for future bigger feature releases. Not quite ready for prime time, but we’re getting ever closer! We did release a small fix to the information window that appears when you hover over the import status of a connected account. It shouldn’t “flash” anymore on Chrome and Firefox.

YNABers with EU/UK direct import connections were not able to reauthenticate, instead an incorrect credentials error message was being shown. This has been fixed.

More fixes and improvements in today’s release: we’re fixing a rather obtuse behaviour where editing a pending transaction with a future date could be converted to a scheduled transaction when you clicked on the “Enter Now” button. This should not happen anymore and will now be posted with the current date in the transaction list. We also fixed an issue with transfers between accounts and the undo/redo buttons. They should play along much better now.

Finally, we also improved our “internet and tubes” error message in cases where the crash could be linked to the Toolkit being installed.

A bit of a fix-it day today. YNAB now has better support for screen readers within the Budget. Customizing your first budget has also gotten a little smoother as we’ve reduced some friction around removing the default categories when setting everything up for the first time. And, we’ve fixed a bug where hitting the Esc key while viewing transactions within Manage Payees exited you out of both modals instead of just the one.

A quiet Wednesday release this week: imagine the sounds of consistent, gentle tinkering and a little polishing here and there and you’ll get the vibe.

Today’s release brings a fresh crop of bug fixes to the Loan Planner. Previously, the “Select Account” field in the “Add Payment” popup did not respond to mouse clicks, and was responding to up/down arrow keys in reverse. That was disconcerting and unexpected—no longer! In addition, the “Payoff Date” field now responds to key presses and when editing the payment date in the “Add Activity” popup, the escape key and screen resizing will function properly. Go forth and edit your loan payments, for now they shall behave much better. Finally, we also fixed a small bug where YNAB wouldn’t highlight newly edited sub-split transactions. That won’t happen anymore.

Update: Another release today fixing display issues with the “Using Credit Cards in YNAB” modal.

In today’s release, we fixed an issue where we would incorrectly assume that an account was in overdraft when in fact, it was not. We won’t do that anymore. Happy Tuesday!

Many small improvements coming to you with this release. First of all, we made some changes to the bank connection flows: removing some extra steps and adding shortcuts to more easily identify the connections that need your attention. We also fixed a pesky bug that was making it difficult to select text in a budget field. And finally, we improved the loan planner to be able to handle large one-time extra payments. Take that, debt.

We improved the Loan Planner’s simulator to more accurately reflect payoff dates when testing different payment options and we now count the fees or charges as a change in the “principal paid so far” rather than as payments. We also fixed a bug that would sometimes cause the undo button to appear greyed out in the Manage Payees window.

Today’s release brings a fresh look to the Make a Fresh Start modal. Aww yeah!

Today’s release is wearing all black — not because it thinks it’s too cool for school — it’s just all behind-the-scenes improvements. Speaking of fashionable choices though, if you’re looking for a fresh look for your YNAB app on iOS new app icons are now available through the Settings menu!

Today we’re bringing the Overspent Filter to the web app! Fans of the YNAB mobile app will be familiar with the banner that gives quick access to overspent categories; now you can roll with the punches just as quickly and effortlessly on web! With one click you can access (and take action on) all the overspent categories in your budget.

If you use the YNAB iOS app, keep your eyes out for some exciting updates later this week, and in the meantime, check out the transaction entry screen—we’ve made some additional  changes to the layout and organization to help increase learnability and make way for additional features coming down the pike. In web-land, we’ve squashed a bug that was preventing some YNABers from setting up certain debt accounts and another that was causing the app to crash in certain scenarios.

Today, we’re releasing a volley of small improvements: we’ve fixed an issue in date picker calendars that could result in the selected day looking a little too much like an oval instead of looking like a circle. We’ve added some new currencies that have been requested, so budgeters in Sierra Leone, Laos, Kyrgyz Republic and in the Republic of Cape Verde, rejoice! We’ve also fixed a crash that appeared when you would delete all the default categories during onboarding. Last (but not least!) we’ve updated the behaviour of the Payee and of the Category dropdown when scrolling the transaction list.

In today’s release we’ve updated the calendar that appears when you pick a date for a transaction. We’ve made it easier to separate the current day from the day you’re selecting and overall improved the look and feel of the calendar! We’ve also fixed a bug in the progress bars that would make the sections look too small in certain cases!

Much like April showers bringing May flowers, much of today’s release includes groundwork for new features to come. One little bud you’ll notice the next time you pay off a loan: YNAB now recognizes the new status with the proper confetti emoji and a liberal use of exclamation points! We’ve also fixed a bug where your repeating monthly needed for spending target may have been off by a day.

A bevy of bug fixes in today’s release: some visible, some not! One you may notice: in some cases the Reduce Overfunding button was not calculating correctly for Target Savings goals — that’s now fixed. And another: the New Category modal was acting all floaty and out of position when you clicked it into existence. No more!

The icons that are beside linked accounts to let you know you need to troubleshoot the connection to continue importing transactions were not showing up. Call me the magic man, now you see them, now you don’t. Well… and now you see them again.

Today’s release fixes an issue where, occasionally, if you made a change to the “Monthly Payment” field in the Loan Planner, and then navigated to a different loan account, the numbers entered in the first account would persist. That was strange and unexpected and it won’t happen anymore.

In today’s release, we fixed a bug where a Savings Balance Target with no date would show the Reduce Overfunding option if the Target was previously met and new money was budgeted, even if the Target is not currently met. Did you catch that 😅? Yeah, same. Nothing else to report, happy Tuesday!

Another quiet day with many behind-the-scenes updates here, but yesterday was a big one for Android: you can now subscribe via the Google Play Store! Didn’t know we have an Android app? Check it out.

Auto-assign now takes into account debt payment target due dates to correctly prioritize how money is auto-assigned into loan accounts.
And: a pesky empty whitespace was appearing for some of you at the bottom of the screen, we removed it. Someone said spring cleaning?

We fixed a bug with loan targets where payment budget bars sometimes appeared red if a loan target was funded in a previous month. No more!

Today we are highlighting mobile updates! Android users should check their device as we’ve added equation keys to the transaction entry screen! For now, this update only applies to single-category transactions, but look for these keys on the split transaction screen in a future release. iOS users will also notice a change: the toggle on the transaction entry screen has a new look! This design improves legibility and helps new users quickly learn the foundations of managing transactions in YNAB. Also, it’s snazzy. Who doesn’t love a snazzy toggle?

We put together a lot of great behind-the-scenes fixes in today’s release, but don’t worry — we didn’t overtax ourselves. Speaking of taxes, are you in the U.S. and looking forward to a refund this tax season? If you’re wondering how to put that money to work we have a few ideas for you!

Many fixes and improvements in today’s release, but it’s not all structural! Eagle eyed budgeters will notice new icons in the settings menu in the web app.

YNABers connected to UK/EU banks might’ve noticed that, even after successfully reauthorizing a connection, YNAB would still indicate that the connection needed to reauthorize. And then, when you try to reauthorize again, it says it is successful… but then the connection STILL says it needs to reauthorize. 🤦 We have fixed this bug! A successful reauthorization will no longer make you feel like the star of Groundhog Day.

It’s a quiet day in YNAB-land; please enjoy today’s release of behind-the-scenes improvements.

Happy spring! Wait… too soon? I saw ‘March’ and got a little ahead of myself. Today’s release (like the weather this time of year) is anticipatory; great things are happening behind-the-scenes that will be coming soon to a budget near you. For now, hunker in and join me in enjoying every last minute of sweater season!

In today’s release, we’re fixing some reported issues around currency symbols and adding a number of requested currencies. You can now budget in Angolan Kwanza, Fijian Dollars, Malagasy Ariary, Nepalese Rupee and Aruban Florin! Did you know the 50c Aruban Florin is a square coin? 🤩

Happy Twosday! We’re so sorry to have missed our regularly scheduled release, but hopefully this makes it up to you. Two things in today’s release: we fixed a bug in the “Record Payment” screens for the loan planner: the calendar date picker was appearing in the wrong place! It should now pop up over the date field, as expected. We also made a small spacing improvement to the UI in the credit card “Move Money” window.

In today’s release we fixed an issue where targets could show the wrong date in months with fewer than 31 days. As it turns out, calendars can be real head-scratchers. We also made some updates to our supported currencies. We’ve removed the Latvian Lats (replaced by the Euro in 2014), added the Malawi Kwacha, and added the Rwandan Franc. I don’t have a pithy ending for this release note, so I’m just going to awkwardly sign off now.

Lots of underlying dependency updates in today’s release—gotta keep up with the times! Also, we now show a warning if you attempt to link a bank account that has a different currency than the currency of your budget. Say that one three times fast. Happy budgeting!

Not much for spectators in today’s web release (backend updates, paving the way for future features, yadda yadda). More time for budgeting! 😉

Today’s release includes one bug fix for loan accounts with interest payment history. We now consider any already-cleared interest paid when calculating the cleared and uncleared balances on loan accounts, making sure that there’s no chance for a double interest charge. Otherwise, tweaking and polishing our backstage setup today.

While we’re working to improve your budgeting experience, can we also help you get two steps closer to one of your goals? Click here to learn how you can enter to win $2,222 from YNAB!

Happy Budget Rollover Day! We just have backend changes today, but have you nerded out with Ben & Ernie from YNAB about their routines for the month rollover yet? Click here for a throwback to Episode One of Budget Nerds.

Optimizers rejoice! With today’s web release, switching budgets in the web app now only requires two clicks, not three! To switch between multiple budgets on one account, click on your budget name in the upper left and you’ll now see the new Open Budget submenu with a list of your recent budgets (up to 5) and the option to view all budgets if you have more.

Also with today’s release, peek inside the magic of your budget’s Auto Assign allotments! Now when you use Auto Assign budget-wide, YNAB will show a more detailed summary of what’s about to happen.

Today’s release is of the “eat your veggies” variety, chock-full of vitamins and minerals to keep your budget healthy. Not to say that we’re going to skip dessert – we’ve got some sweet things coming your way soon!

Today’s update brings a handful of behind-the-scenes changes and a fix: if you have a loan account with a transaction on the same day as the starting balance, it won’t cause an error anymore!

We have a lot of great stuff in the works and we’re excited to get it into your hands. Want to be part of that? Come join us—we’re hiring!

Today we’re bringing you two new currencies: the Zambian Kwacha and the Myanmar Kyat. We also have a couple currency fixes: we now use the proper symbols for the Kenyan Shilling (KSh) and the Danish Kroner (kr.). Thank you to the YNABers who reached out about the incorrect symbols!

As our teams are mostly planning all the features and improvements we want to build in 2022, we don’t have anything juicy to share in this release. It’s all a hidden work-in-progress for now!

Sure this release may be small, but here’s something mighty: saving $1,000 in just a month! Try your hand at our More Money Challenge, where the average participant saves $1,000 in just 30 days by following three simple rules. How hard could it be, right?

With this release, we’re improving some of the machinery under the hood that powers YNAB. We also fixed a couple of issues: we added a custom note to the invoices of users located in Texas to be more helpful, and made some improvements to Direct Import in the EU. We also fixed a bug that would duplicate payee locations on mobile if you’re using Geo Payees!

Another mostly behind the scenes release today. We did, however, fix a bug where loan accounts migrated from pre-existing tracking accounts would use the wrong currency format, causing the balance to be woefully incorrect. Not to worry, that won’t happen anymore.

Happy New Year dear readers! Welcome to 2022. Lots of changes happening under the hood today, but not much to report. In fact, all I have to report is that we removed two extra spaces that were lurking in one of our success message modals. We can’t have that, not in 2022. Begone extra spaces, begone!

Today’s release includes hidden behind the scenes fixes, much like your budget could contain hidden gifts. Not sure how? Check out our blog post on how to hide gifts when sharing a budget.

We have a small fix for you today: rather than not showing the Payee row in the Matched Transaction popup when there isn’t a payee name present, we will now show the the text “None.” Hopefully this helps to remove any confusion!

Just some bits and bobs of fixes and tweaks today after Tuesday’s major release of Direct Import for the UK and EU. If you’re having any trouble linking your bank be sure to check out Troubleshooting Linked Accounts.

It’s a big day in the YNAB-verse—Direct Import is now available for select UK and EU banks through our new Direct Import partner, TrueLayer. First time linking an account? Check out our instructions for the web and mobile devices. 

There are some small fixes for the Loan Planner today, but otherwise it’s pretty sleepy around here. Thursday’s a holiday in the US, so we won’t be releasing again until NEXT Tuesday. Happy Thanksgiving to those of you celebrating this week!

It’s a quiet day for user-facing changes on web, so Android gets the spotlight instead… Today brings an exciting change for Android users—fully editable pending transactions! Just tap on a transaction and make changes to your heart’s content. Looking for more info? Check out this help doc.

Two squashed bugs in today’s release: if you’ve recently changed a liability type tracking account to our new loan account type, YNAB didn’t always cancel the original scheduled transactions the way you might expect. Now, any scheduled transactions created in the now-moot liability account will be cancelled. Any scheduled transactions created as transfers in other budget or tracking accounts will remain. Additionally, reconciling your Loan account now clears ALL of the account’s transactions—even those that aren’t listed in the register (those pesky interest and escrow transactions).

In this release we fixed a bug that was preventing some users from transitioning their existing tracking accounts to the new Loan Planner accounts. Turns out, the bug came from an issue with timezones. Who would’ve thought? Not me, that’s for sure. If you haven’t already, check out the new Loan Planner, it’s a mighty strong tool for making informed choices crushing your debt.

Today’s release includes some enhancements to the adding suggested categories experience. It also includes a very long list of things that are not visible at all, but we can’t wait to tell you about in the near future. Keep an eye on the Up Next page for more updates soon.

We released a fix to ensure all users are seeing the correct price in their account settings.

It’s a quiet release today, with some database work and internal improvements to our app that are needed to continue building our upcoming features.

In today’s release, we’re fixing a bug that would appear in rare cases with loan accounts not having any interest rate.

In the background, we’re getting ever closer to supporting direct import for banks in the UK and EU. If you are interested, we’re currently recruiting beta testers! Simply follow the link in this post here.

A lot of you have noticed our gradual release of the new features to help you track and pay down your mortgages and loans… with this release we’re finalizing this phased release for the last accounts that remained. We’re really excited by the first impressions you’ve been sending our way, and by seeing some of you already start to budget more money to pay down loans faster!

All the details about these new features, including some amazing examples from our internal testing team, can be found in this blog post. As for these release notes, we’ll remain brief:

• Added new loan account types, including: mortgages, student loans, auto loans, personal and other.
• Added monthly interest estimation on loan accounts when making a payment.
• Added a new category target for loan payments with payoff date and total interest estimation.
• Visual changes to the inspector for categories paired with a loan account to show the benefits of budgeting more money towards paying down a loan.
• New visual design for loan accounts to add a pay down calculator.
• Added an upgrade banner message for liability tracking accounts to migrate them to a loan account.

In today’s release, we’ve improved the design of the subscription pages to bring more clarity to them. We’ve also fixed some visual issues that happened in dark mode with the account/subscription settings. Also, we’re starting to gradually release new features to help you manage mortgages and loans. If you don’t see them in your account yet, expect them in the next few days as we’re slowly rolling them out to everyone!

Another quiet release today, filled with backend changes. With nothing new to peep in your budget, turn to the leaves!

We updated a few hidden 🔍 mentions of “goals” within our tooltips to the latest and greatest “targets” language. Learn more about targets.

Surprise! It’s Thursday and we’re continuing prep for direct import for those of you across the pond. Whether you’re enjoying a few days off or working, we hope this weekend is a good one!

Today’s release brings us ever closer to some fun new features, including that sweet sweet UK direct import and a neat update to tracking accounts that you’ll hear about soon! We’re also slowly and steadily reducing the overall nubmer number of typos in the app 🎉

We’re fixing an issue in your subscription invoices that would prevent you from updating the recipient address when entering certain international zip codes. We’ve also fixed an error message that appears when you try to add a category group name that already exists. Under the hood, more work is being done to support UK & EU direct bank imports! 

In a previous release, we’d unintentionally introduced a “feature” that prevented you from moving reconciled transactions between accounts! 🙀That is now fixed in this release and you can once again move those transactions to your heart’s content.
