Recent reviews
If you are getting errors when looking at base YNAB reports, you have to disable the "Add Total Monthly Targets" option in the toolkit settings (or just do a refresh). That is what is causing the issue. YNAB did something that broke toolkit, it is not the fault on this extension, but hopefully it can be fixed soon.

Incredible extension

I have used this extension for about 3 years. I am very impressed how quickly they keep up with YNAB's changes and improvements. This team is constantly improving the extension. The toolkit adds visibility into my budget and provides the ability to personalize. The recent addition of a search field has completely changed how I use the toolkit. Keep up the good work!
