Cannot speak on the investment portion as I have just started but I definitely DO NOT recommend the cash high yield account. I had put money as an emergency in tere and when I went to actually use it with the debit card they provide you. They locked my account! I had to submit ID to verify myself which failed. They said it could take up to 2 business days to unlock my account! I cannot recommend their cash account because you can lose access to your money and they cannot unlock šŸ¤¦

The UX is great, I find it very intuitive. I also really enjoy playing with the estimates: how would my retirement age change if I bought a house, saved more money, etc. The app is *almost* gamified, and I notice that it subtly presents the idea I'm doing better than I am: adjusting the time frame for investment payback can dramatically change the the reported return rate on investments. All that being said, it's very easy, I think it gives a good overview, and is a good additional investment.

Really good app. The only thing I wish is that it would allow me to change my address without having to login through the desktop website. Customer service were really helpful though and guided me through the process. Update: The feature to segregate your savings is such a game changer. I can allocate my money within the savings account and create categories! Just amazing!!
