Rocket Money - Bills & Budgets
How do I view a simple list of my recent spending instead of the charts and graphs?
Open the app and tap the 'Transactions' tab at the bottom to see a plain list of your purchases. If you want to filter by date or category, use the filter icon at the top right, but you can also just scroll through the default list for a straightforward view.
How can I turn off the frequent upgrade pop-ups asking me to pay for a premium plan?
Go to your profile or settings menu by tapping the gear icon, then look for 'Subscription' or 'Upgrade' options. You can dismiss the pop-ups by selecting 'Remind me later' or, if you've already paid, they should stop after your purchase is confirmed.
Why is my spending showing up in the wrong category, and how do I fix it?
The app sometimes mislabels purchases, like putting a mop from Home Depot under 'Home Improvement' instead of 'Household Supplies.' To fix it, tap on the transaction in your list, then tap the category name and choose the correct one from the menu.
I can't find the settings to turn off notifications—where is it in the app?
Open the app, tap the profile icon (a person silhouette) in the top left corner, then select 'Settings' from the menu. From there, choose 'Notifications' and you can toggle off alerts for bills, budgets, or other updates individually.
How does Rocket Money compare to a simpler app like Mint for someone who just wants a basic spending list?
Rocket Money offers more detailed bill tracking and subscription detection, which can help you find hidden charges like old streaming services, but its interface is busier with charts and categories. Mint provides a cleaner, more straightforward list of transactions and is easier for beginners, though it lacks Rocket Money's proactive bill negotiation feature.
