Confusing and cumbersome

To heap very faint praise, iCompta 2 at least appears to have potential to evolve into an app for grownups. But its a long way from being there now.

Not sure how this app is getting such good reviews. It is extremely confusing, and the instructions on the website are worthless.

Nowhere, for example, do the instructions explain how to download transactions. It turns out, after I went through extensive third party website investigation, that downloads must be performed manually. The app links you (in app) to your credit card or banks website, where you have to go through the entire manual download process (which is typically buried several layers deep in most financial sites), and even then it works inconsistently.

Also, the app has unlabeled, non-intuitive graphical buttons. What several of these buttons do I still havent figured out. And the app is clearly geared toward European customers, with terminologies that dont show up in the U.S. financial system.

Im searching for a well performing, intuitive app that allow the user to download your financial info into the app directly from the financial institution by entering the account into into the app itself. I.e., Im looking for an app that is similar in function and commitment to excellence to the good old days desktop version of Quicken (back when Intuit respected Mac users rather than treating us like financially unsophisticated inferiors to Windows users). iCompta 2 is not yet by a long shot that app.
