Flip is your money manager in iMessage. Text it like a person: check balances, catch subscriptions and fees, and get the answer back in the same thread. When something needs your say-so, Flip asks first and you approve it in the app with Face ID. Flip Assistant is where you start, and the companion for that conversation. GET STARTED Sign up with your phone number, answer a few questions about how you handle money, and see your money score and a plan built from your answers. Connect your bank and cards securely through Plaid, then say hi to Flip in Messages. HOME What's safe to spend until your next payday, what needs you today, and your spending and net worth at a glance. CALENDAR Bills and paydays day by day, so nothing sneaks up on you. MONEY Every transaction, plus a budget for each category, with limits Flip suggests from your spending. ACCOUNTS Cash, cards, investments and loans in one place: what you own, what you owe, and which connections need you. WIKI What Flip knows about you, with a source for every fact. Correct anything, or ask Flip to forget it. YOUR THREAD A read-only mirror of your conversation with Flip — Markdown, link cards, photos and search — so what it found and what it did is one tap away. Replying opens Messages. Flip Assistant never moves money by itself.
