How to Schedule Account Updates
By Coach Natalie

Quicken Simplifi now offers an exciting new feature that allows you to manage the frequency of your bank account updates! You can customize the update interval for each account or even turn off automatic updates entirely. This is especially useful for accounts that require frequent Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) prompts or those that don’t need to be updated as often.

Along with this update scheduling feature, you’ll also see a new ‘Last Updated’ timestamp. This makes it easy to see when each bank account was last refreshed in Quicken Simplifi. These improvements give you more control over your account updates and how you manage them.

To set an update schedule for a specific bank, follow the steps below!

Schedule Account Updates on the Web App:

  1. Hover over the panel on the left-hand side and select Settings.
  2. Select Accounts.
  3. Locate the bank you want to change the schedule for and click the three dots at the end of it.
  4. Select Manage updates.
  5. Select the new Update Interval, and then click Save Updates.

Schedule Account Updates on the Mobile App:

  1. Click the Menu (three lines) in the upper left.
  2. Select Settings and then Accounts.
  3. Locate the bank you want to change the schedule for and click the three dots at the end of it.
  4. Select Manage Updates.
  5. Select the new Update Interval, and then click Save Updates.

Once you’ve set a schedule, an icon will appear next to the account showing that the update schedule has been configured.

Note: Regardless of the interval you select, Quicken Simplifi can only connect to your bank once every 4-6 hours due to limitations from our aggregation partner and the banks.

    Congrats on the iMac upgrade! I've got an M4 iPad Pro and an M4 MacBook pro, the M4 chip honestly doesn't "feel" much different in speed than the M2 or M1 chips i've had — at least in terms of daily use, but when I do some more complicated things (i.e. building an app) it's definitely faster.

    @RobWilk Yep, my wife has an M2 Mac mini which is pretty fast. She replaced an old i5 Windows PC. I replaced an i5 iMac with 8 meg of memory with an M4 iMac with 16meg, and it was a big change. Got a bigger screen too and all for several hundred less than I paid in 2019 for the old iMac!

    Congrats on the iPad Pro. If I weren't still using Quicken Classic, I might have gone with that option. I was torn.
