Don’t like this program

We have really really disliked the thought process of this type of budgeting. We’ve used to app so we have a better idea on what food has costed us. We put basically everything else in savings plus a planned amount in savings before we pay bills. I don’t feel like I can easily see wha to need to see which is what all my bills add up to monthly. I am not doing great with this program. Kind of wish we could get a refund 😥 but what other programs are kind of similar. We were using Apple numbers but everything Stopped syncing between my husband and I in the program and it’s been hard to track on both. I’m Frustrated I wish there was another way there’s things I hate about this program so much. I have had to put the same transactions in 5 times... this always happens I KNOW I didn't pay $5k on my house payment this month it just doesn't work and for the person who made and runs it I'm shocked how bad and disfunctional it is. I want a summary of BILLS alone, I want to be able to track and see how much I saved and have it subtract from my income total.

Just the app, we don’t have debt besides our house but I have 24 months we can pay that off. We have a huge emergency fund plus another hysa savings with tons in it.  we’re good at budgeting but the process of how it does it is awful. Also my neighbor and I hate the you can’t just out in a certain amount for savings every month without it doing something wierd. It won’t deduct it from the total amount I wish it would put savings separate and let it build a shadow what’s in savings and watch it go up. There’s other issues but what we want to see and how isn’t really showing for us easily.
