We’ve rolled out a wave of updates to help you stay more informed, more in control, and navigate Monarch with ease. Read on for details on everything that's new to explore in Monarch.

See your credit score, right from your dashboard

Your credit score plays a big role in your financial life. Until now, you’ve had to track it elsewhere but starting today, checking in on your credit score is as easy as opening Monarch to track the rest of your finances.

With a new dashboard widget, you’ll see your latest score at a glance. After initial set up, you’ll see your most recent score and you’ll get monthly updates to your score moving forward. Once Monarch has three months of history, you’ll also see how your score is trending over time and if your score shifts significantly—up or down—you’ll get a heads up notification automatically.

What you’ll see:

• A new credit score widget on your dashboard
• Quick and secure setup (you’ll connect your score using our partner Spinwheel)
• A monthly update to your score, with notifications if there are major changes
• Shared visibility across your household (each member of your household can connect their own score)

Set up credit score tracking and see your latest score today.

Note: this feature is available for US members only at this time.

Customize how Monarch keeps you in the loop

We’ve revamped the notification settings page to give you more control and clarity, so you can decide what deserves your attention—and how you hear about it. The redesigned settings page makes it easy to fine-tune alerts by channel and toggle them on or off in just a few taps.

What’s new:

• Manage in-app, email, and push alerts in one place
• Toggle all notifications on or off by channel
• Cleaner design and more clear descriptions for every type of alert

We’ve also fixed an issue where notification badges weren’t matching up with reality in your in-app notification center!

Head to your notification settings page and customize your preferences.

A faster way to search and navigate: the new CommandK search bar

We’ve made big upgrades to Monarch’s CommandK search bar so you can move through the app faster and find what you need instantly.

What’s new:

• Search for almost anything in Monarch: categories, merchants, accounts, goals, saved reports, and more
• Find context-aware actions based on where you are in the app (for example, when viewing a transaction, you’ll see the option to “Explain this transaction”)
• Access settings such as light/dark mode
• View a full list of keyboard shortcuts

Give it a try today. From anywhere in the web app, click Cmd+K (on Mac) or Ctrl+K (on PC).

Other improvements

Clearer guidance for reconnecting your accounts

We’ve improved how we communicate any connection issues, making it more clear what the issue is and what to do next.

Whether it's re-entering a password, confirming a security prompt, or XYZ [to come], Monarch will guide you through exactly what to do—so you can get back to seeing up-to-date balances and transactions quickly and easily. You’ll see these new and improved messages right inside the app as well as the email you receive if an account needs to be reconnected.

Improvements to the existing Goals feature

Investments

Need to connect with Steve for clarity.

Manual holdings now support decimal quantities for greater accuracy. Users can now update the type of security if its misclassified (changing "bonds" to "CDs"?)

Clear all filters

You can now clear all filters with one click on both the reports page and the transactions page, making it easier to...

Help center refresh

The Help Center got a refresh! It’s now easier to navigate and quicker to find the support you need when you need it.

Bug fixes

• Previewing rule changes is now instant—no more infinite loading
• Fixed an issue where tags were not saved when multiple rules apply to one transaction
• Tag creation works again in the mobile app
• Improved dark mode color consistency across the app
• iPhone keyboard no longer blocks the notes field

What’s next

Target will be the next retailer supported by Monarch Chrome extension! Soon, you’ll be able to sync your Target purchases just like you can with Amazon—helping ensure your shopping trips are categorized accurately and automatically.

We’re continuing work on bigger improvements to goals, with future updates focused on helping you forecast when your goal will be completed, allowing you to set target dates, and giving more helpful context on your progress.

We’re designing new collaborative features to make managing mixed finances with a partner feel more intuitive. Expect updates that make it easier to view, compare, and coordinate shared and separate finances—so you can have transparency but still easily see what's yours.

Last but not least, we’re enhancing how hidden transactions work, making sure they are hidden from the transaction list so you can keep gift purchases under wraps and surprises intact.
