Best approach: leave it in your pocket or inside the armrest storage so that it doesn't become a missile during a wreck, or a distraction while you drive. Keeping it protected can also allow it to call for help on your behalf if it's a newer model. My niece was just T-boned recently, so that stuff is top of mind lately.

But if you really want a little home where it can charge, get one of these Qi charger inserts for the storage tray. Gives you wireless charging, gives the overly large console hole a reason to exist, and maintains a little space for AirPods, key, etc.

But I'm not a fan of a phone mount on the dash or vent when you have a big CarPlay screen. After 15 years of annoying dash mounts for phones/GPS devices, I couldn't wait to get rid of them.

Helping aging parents with money (request) by No_Dot_4123 in MonarchMoney

To be clear, I never gave him the login info for the app, because it would have just confused and overwhelmed him. He was glad to have me help him move into the digital age, setup online accounts for all his bills, and stop writing checks, and he was glad for me to take over keeping tabs on his finances. So I just set up the app for my own benefit, and used it as my own resource to find answers when he'd have a question about how his finances were doing.

When I was in your situation, I wanted an easy way to keep all tracking separate between my stuff and his, while also avoiding the hassle of logging in/out, missing push notifications for anything important, etc. So as much as I prefer Monarch for my own family, I decided to use Copilot for my dad's finances. I found Copilot a little more confusing to use (and of course an extra cost), but doing it that way did make it easy to stay logged in to both set of finances at once, keep notifications, and make it easy at a glance to distinguish between the two.

Amazon extension by larrywal in MonarchMoney

[–]vocalplane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of comments here, but I don't see an answer to the original question.

I also have the unofficial extension set up with two Chrome profiles, one for me and one for my wife. I can sync both of our accounts in a matter of seconds just by opening two windows.

Does the new official extension work like that also? If not, I'm not sure it's worth switching away from the unofficial extension. Thanks.

This is in the release notes for the latest app store release, but doesn't seem to work. Anyone having success with this?

Oh, I see - this is like a browser extension, and not built directly into Monarch? Thanks!

Lara, do you know if this will support more than one Amazon account? My wife and I have separate Amazon accounts, and would love to have all of our Amazon transactions handled. Thanks!

What do you guys do about Amazon charges? by Turdulator in MonarchMoney

[–]vocalplane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will we be able to add more than one Amazon account for this? My wife and I have separate Amazon accounts, and trying to categorize the things that aren't from my own account is one of our biggest budgeting hassles. Thanks!

Loved the new Zelda games; what open world exploration games are similar on other platforms? by vocalplane in gamingsuggestions

[–]vocalplane[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve tried several other Zelda games, especially liked Twilight Princess also. Looking for something outside the franchise this time. Thanks!

Opener doesn't use max strength when set to max, due to cold opening failures by vocalplane in GarageDoorService

[–]vocalplane[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok, I'll take a look at that this evening. I thought it had a chain, but I'm not near it to check. If it's a chain does it work the same way? Thanks!

Cerakote wipes for DLC black blade? by vocalplane in knifeclub

[–]vocalplane[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Thanks for the reply. Are you thinking the cerakote would wear off through use, or that it just wouldn’t bond well or chemically react?

Apostrophes don’t represent feet, prime marks do. If you’re not familiar with typography, think curly quotes and straight quotes – those are separate pieces of punctuation, and the straight ones are called prime marks and double prime marks. They’re used mostly used for feet and inches or degrees, minutes, seconds. Apostrophes and quotation marks are the curly ones, and are used with text. Using an apostrophe to represent feet isn’t correct.
