I knew it would take time but I did not think it would take this long.

Any news on when/if Apple Card will be available in Simplifi?

@chawba, I have gone ahead and merged your post with this existing thread for Apple Card so you can follow along here for updates. The most recent update is available here:
I hope this helps!

I cannot answer for other users, but for me this answer just shows the lack of interest of Quicken to listen to their users. On June 12th you answered with a message from May 16th? Are you sure there is no updated answer on this? Like … we are in the final internal tests, before releasing it to early access users, or anything else.
It is not an acceptable answer!

Agreed!… I tweaked everything in Simplifi and hung in there with expectations it would have AppleCard support soon.. Sigh, now many months later it's totally absurd [removed - accuracy] at this point. However I have moved on to another app (but still want Simplifi to simply have it working, just in case I need to return).

I would be very surprise if Coach Natalie knows when Apple Card will connect or has authority to tell the coders to make Apple Card priority one . The products that can connect require an iPhone to make the initial connect the last time I check. Not likely but the wait could be that Apple is promising Android connect or connection via the web in a few months. It probably that management did not put it on the to do list until Apple gave permission and it did not get put at the top of the list. What ever the reason, hopefully it will be soon.

When Apple Card becomes available for connecting how will it be announced? Will it be Apple Card when one searches for Apple to add an account?

Apple Card transaction data (and Apple Cash data for that matter) has been available via the iOS API since the release of iOS 17.4 in early March - four months ago. Many other budget apps already have support for Apple Card. We've been told by the product team that it's coming, but when?
I think we deserve an ETA or at least to know roughly where this is in the Simplifi roadmap…
To be frank, I can't wait much longer and I'm sure I'm not the only one that is starting to investigate alternatives simply because of a lack of support on Apple Card.

@awstroud, thanks for posting your inquiry to the Community!
As you can see from the above discussion I merged your post with, we are keeping everyone here updated on Apple Card integration so please continue to follow along here.
And I actually do have an update to provide! We are hoping this ability will be available on the Mobile App in Early Access this week. 🎉

That's great! So do I just need to opt-in to early access features to use this?

@awstroud, yes, when the feature is available in Early Access. The steps to enable Early Access can be found here:
Thanks!

Great news. I had just about quit using Apple Card and was missing the convince of paying with my apple watch without a card. I assume we will make the connection with an iPone app and it will appear on the web app. With Apple requiring an iPhone for connecting, I would think there is no need for any changes on the web app.

When we connect to Apple Card, what are the steps to insure it syncs with the transaction in the manual Apple Card account?
0 -
Great news! I have tried other alternatives, but actually, none still gave me all I needed.
When new features are available to Early Users, how do we know about it? It there a notification of a new feature for Early Users? An E-mail?
0 -
That is what I was thinking. I assume when you click Link to existing account it will allow you to select from the existing list.

I am just guessing but it appears to me Quicken Simplifi is contracting with a service provider for the iPhone app, Quicken Simplifi, to connect Apple Card. Looks like developers have a problem with the delivery date they were hopping to achieve. Hopefully it minor.

so far the Apple Card support has not yet come for early access enabled users. I don’t see it.

Any updates?

You said it was going to early access last week and it doesn't happen. At this point, it feels like you are intentionally misleading us. For someone who is new to your company and is currently on a trial subscription, this whole apple card implementation has been a pretty bad experience. It's been months since it was made available.
I have been putting off importing my stuff to another solution as you keep saying it's coming soon. Our household finances are also incomplete, because I am putting off creating my wife's account as she heavily uses Apple Card.
Please be honest with your timeline that way people can make decisions.
Thank You.

The quote: "We are hoping this ability will be available on the Mobile App in Early Access this week". Please note note HOPING. Coach Natalie Is probably wanting the update more than you. I think they are contracting with the developers and Simplifi is pressuring them for when and the developers said maybe this week. I have no ideal how motivated the developers are to get the Apple Card connecting but even if they are very motivated, programs can't give you a completion date because until the code is working and tested you never know how long it will take. They are probably trying to think of every possible way a user could mess it up, send it for testing and tester finds something. In addition they are working with Apple's stands for security and probably a new way of connecting.

I talked with Apple, and they said there’s no hold up on their end.

I work in software development so I know how it goes. What I meant was, [removed - speculation/accuracy]. Other providers implemented this months ago. It doesn't take months to implement an integration. We have no indication that Apple is blocking an API they made available.
In my example, if 4 months ago, they had said "it's coming in August", someone in my situation would have switched to another provider already, but since they said "it's coming VERY soon" I stuck around waiting.

Quicken Simplify has been an excellent tool to help me manage my financial info. For me, the last thing that it is lacking is the integration to manage Apple Card transactions, but it is taking so long that I start to be interested in trying other providers more seriously.
Give us the good news that this "feature", or integration, is available, at least to early access users! I will gladly test it and report anything I identify needs to be corrected before making it available for all users.

I remember when I was complaining about no updates back when it was cool. Now I’m just jaded.

I have used Apple card for just about day one and very eager to connect. I have also evaluated several other budget apps with an eye towards Apple Card connection. There maybe some apps besides the companies worked with for beta testing I have not found but with the ones I have tested, Simplifi wins hand down.

Ladiciuus, I think I posted "coming VERY soon" from X or facebook. I'm sure the statement did not come from a post on this community.

I would suggest an edit for this statement: "…making it available for all users who use Apple Card." This issue is important to a certain subset of QS users only and has no impact on any users not in that subset.
I'm certain, despite the angst expressed herein, that the team that is tasked with adding Apple Card support/integration are doing their best to make it happen. It has always been my understanding and experience that Apple runs an exclusive ship - "exclusive" being the key word. That QS wants to provide this integration and yet has been frustrated in doing so to this point has more to do with the exclusiveness of Apple then the willingness of QS to be INCLUSIVE.
Yes, this is taking a long time and even though this has zero impact on me, I do hope Apple and QS can make it happen soon for the sake of their mutual customers.
