Hi All,

Not sure if this is in the right place.  

Many years ago I used to use YOLT app to track my credit card and bank account balances. That disappeared and then I started using EMMA app but that has now changed to a fee charging app so see more than two accounts. So I was wondering if anyone could recommend a free app that I can link accounts to enabling me to view my balances in one place at a glance?

Thanks

Naomim

    I think some (many?) banking apps offer this. E.g. my Barclays app keeps asking:"Have accounts with other banks? Now you can see them in your Barclays app".

    Isn't this reliant on Open Banking? Unfortunately, I don't think that all banks participate in it, so accounts with ones that don't can't be linked. The OP might be lucky and only have accounts with banks that participate, of course.

    I just looked at my Barclays app but when I went to the "other accounts"it wouldn't let me past the first page.

    What I'm really after is an app that just shows my consolidated cc & bank account balances. I'll keep searching.

    Android app:
    Have accounts with other banks? Now you can see them in your Barclays app >> Get started >> Select provider >>  BOS, Halifax, Lloyds, Nationwide, Natwest, RBS, Santander
    More providers coming soon

    Unfortunately, they block screenshots.

    Thanks @grumbler. I'm on Android. I get "have accounts with other banks?" I click on it and it tells me about open banking and option to swipe up but won't let me swipe. Very irritating.

    It's tricky to swipe up. Keep trying and do this from the very bottom of the screen - in the centre, but below the arrow

    I have been using Money Dashboard Classic for a few years now and it is working well. Not updated in quite a while though, and I don't know how long it will last after it was acquired over a year ago by Clearscore. But it is free and connects to all the big banks, including the app only ones. Except Chase.
