I noticed that recently too (probably a few weeks ago?). I have a feeling they are "experimenting" with it internally to see what it can do, and want to make sure they have your permission well in advance of the AI studying your spending habits. Most of what I see in the app wouldn't qualify as 'AI' but i can imagine where it would be helpful.

On my system, it seems to have been enabled by default.

When they do release this feature they should probably change the default to disabled. And also explain what parts of the user's data will be available to the AI system if it is enabled.

Hello @DannyB,

Thanks for reaching out! We have some exciting new features that are underway involving Quicken AI, although they are not currently implemented within the program. The option isn't supposed to be enabled yet and will be removed for the time being.

I have come to agree with you on this. I no longer see any benefit for my idea here based on the how and why of the Spending Plan. Indeed, I would withdraw this idea but since it has received votes, it can't be withdrawn. However, I don't expect this to be implemented any time soon if at all and would certainly want other much more useful suggestions implemented prior to this.

The problem with rolling over available spending to next month is: At that point, you don't really have a budget, you really just have some variant of forecasted account balances (cash flow chart). But I have thought ideas were bad before and they got implemented (and not necessarily in a bad way either), I am just throwing in my 2 cents.

I’ve upvoted this suggestion, but thought I would echo what has been said already. I appreciate the work on the investments section and am excited to see it come along. The news section however takes up too much real estate. Please allow it to be hidden or collapsed.

It is less intrusive on the mobile version because it’s a small side-scrolling portion that you can scroll past and then dig into your data. But on the web version the news eats up precious space.

This is an old thread but wanted to comment because it think it’s important.

The ability to see subcategory totals is a basic and important feature to make reports helpful when reviewing broad parent categories like “bills” “entertainment” or “shopping”. The total spending report on the web app does it correctly and works very well — clicking on a category shows the breakdown of the subcategory totals. The mobile total spending report (still) does not do this; It only shows the totals for parent level categories. I thought it would be developed and built over some time, and I’m surprised to see this still not available.

I’ve upvoted this (which has a fairly high count). Please reconsider the build request. It’s not a flashy new build, but will nicely help round out the mobile total spending report by adding basic but important functionality.

Agreed! There was a topic from a few years back (2021) with a request similar to this that had a pretty high vote count.

Subcategory totals are incredibly helpful when monitoring spending within broad categories (food and dining, bills, entertainment, automotive, etc). The functionality is great in the total spending report on the web, and I would really love to see it come to mobile.

More and more, many of us spend an increasing amount of our time reviewing thing on our mobile devices.
