I was really looking forward to seeing new currencies added to the list, and you nailed it! I'm so happy I found Strabo. 😊

• Investment chart improvement: this now re-renders when you split by asset class to show the smaller Y axis scale more accurately

• Bug Fixes: we have fixed some crypto balance issues that were causing account balances to reflect differently in different widgets

• Improve add account flow: you’ll notice that the add account flow has now been changed slightly to allow you to select assets first. Thanks for your feedback on this

• Mobile improvements: although the platform is web-first, we’re gradually making small UI updates to improve your experience while we work on the app

Love the new currency switcher! It makes managing my finances so much easier. Great addition to Strabo!

• Bug fixes: we have been experiencing bug fixes around balance totals due to the handling of exchange rates. This has now been fixed although please note this may take an overnight update to change on your platform

• Net Worth History chart: you can now switch this between a bar and line chart. We will gradually be adding more depth to all charts and they will also soon be exportable

• New add account modal: we have revamped the add account screen as part of our ongoing improvements to the add account flow. This is now single column and much easier to navigate

• New icons: we have drawn up some new icons for all asset types, which you'll notice pop up around the platform

• Custom life event: we had some feedback that users were looking for a custom life event in order to add things not included on the list. We've now added this along with a name field so you can add your own!

• Dark Mode: we are live with Dark Mode!

• Account timeout notifications: we redid the warning you get when your synced account times out after 60-90 days, giving you the option to re-sync

• Embedded checkout: in order to have a more seamless payment system, we built an embedded checkout instead of using the default Stripe one

• Bug Fixes: we have now fixed recurring issues with Cost Basis not updating for stocks, and some currencies not converting

Launched Strabo Knowledge Base - includes New T&C's and Cookie Policy - please read (they are in footer of website) 

We launched Strabo Pro. Have decided to keep key early supporters free indefinitely, so you will retain premium access to the platform.

My default currency is SGD and I have some mutual funds in IDR (Indonesian Rupiah). I created a Stocks & Shares account in Strabo and entered the numbers. I skipped the ticker simbol because Strabo cannot find my mutual funds, then click Save. The resulting balance of this account on the dashboard (in SGD) is wrong. Maybe it's a currency change bug.

Also, if I go to the edit window for this account, it seems like Strabo tries to find an asset with ticker symbol IDR (whatever that is).

I have an investment account at a robo-advisor, which requires manual updating. What type of account is best for this?

The "Stock & Share" type requires me to input the unit and the price per unit. In my robo-advisor account, I don't control how my investment is spread to various assets.

The "Pension plan" type has a maturity date. My robo-advisor is not only for my pension. Even if it is, there is no maturity date as I can take out my money any time.

Should I choose "Alternatives"? This type requires me to input the current value and purchase value. I invest to my robo-advisor continuously so there is no single purchase.

I suppose in Strabo user interface, it's more like "Cash Account" although robo-advisors are investment accounts.

Any advice?

• Improved Add Account Flow: we have streamlined the add account flow and included a new syncing animation. This is the first step in a number of add account flow improvements coming

• Onboarding Wizard: new users will now get a 4-step walkthrough guide explaining the core features of the platform including adding accounts, tagging them, breaking down allocation and adding new pages

I really like this feature. When I increase/derease my contributions, is that for the month, year, something else?

• We've updated the "Life Events" feature with five new entries to better capture key moments that affect your finances: Having a Baby, Wedding, Holiday, Bonus, and Unexpected Events. This expansion helps track and manage the financial implications of these significant milestones more effectively.

• We've simplified the Accounts display to focus solely on Assets & Liabilities, added allocation bars for clarity, and introduced a filtering feature. Plus, we've included a totals row at the bottom of the chart for easier analysis. These enhancements enhance usability and empower users to make informed decisions efficiently.

• We've incorporated a loading indicator following the final onboarding step in the sign-up process.

• Users can now delete dates more efficiently in the Life Event section. Previously, pressing the backspace key in the Date field would erase the entire date. Now, the date will be deleted one space at a time for smoother editing.
