Many usability and UI issues. Here are a couple:
- In the account connection configuration view, a user should be able to sort "active" and "inactive" in the view (so that "active", say, could be at the top of the list).
- The individual line/account objects in the "connections" interface are all absurdly hugely spaced. This is a complete waste of space and is in general a counterproductive "trend" in UI and shows a lack of understanding about what a user is doing on such a screen. Please stop using lazy "responsive" components in your products and start doing real DOM-specific design. On web/browser, this should be in a regular sortable, filterable table view to make scanning and using the whole view much easier. It is laughable how much scrolling takes place on this screen. Imagine if you had 50 accounts to manage….

@dgfin, thanks for posting your suggestions to the Community!
I went ahead and moved this out of Feature Requests, as you want to submit just one suggestion per request in accordance with our guidelines here:
With that, it sounds like you may be looking for this existing request for the first item you mentioned:
Otherwise, I'd suggest creating a separate Idea post for each of your individual requests so other users can vote on that particular change or enhancement accordingly.
I hope this helps!

I think the suggestion is good for a web browser, but you wouldn't want to change the spacing very much on the mobile app where people are using fingers, rather than cursors, to move around.

Right, that's why I said they're misusing "responsive components." In (DOM aware) responsive design, the device type and screen are recognized so that the right UI is served to the user. Using mobile-focused UI elements in a web browser is not good usability. I haven't looked at the UI on mobile, but that's because I work much more quicky on a real computer than on a mobile device, particular for enteing and categorizing data like is often done in personal finance..

OP, I agree with the trend in too much spacing in UI . I think sometimes it's used to try and exaggerate the level of functionality on a page. However, I think Simplifi does a better job than some of the other services I tried. But yea, Simplifi could improve, and the instances you point out are valid!
@ajbopp Agreed about mobile vs web, except this bugs me:
