Hi IK.
I'm not a power user but I do use Moneydance to track my bank balance.
I used migration assistant to move everything over and moneydance came up with an issue that the MacOS addressed by using Rosetta Stone to I guess translate it so the new chip could read it.

I read about moneydance + and that kind goes against the grain with how I use Moneydance. I use it to audit what my bank is doing. I don't trust them to feed data to moneydance, I do all my data entry myself.

Does the 65$ standalone version do anything different than the one I have now?
oh I'm on Version 2021.1(3069) anything shiny or new that i should know about?

    IF you wish to upgrade, at minimum newer versions do support Mac with Mx chips natively versus Rosetta. You are not required to use Moneydance+ or a subscription to it.

    To upgrade (for half price, not $65) which would be good for 2024/2025 - go to www.infinitekind.com/upgrade and enter your license code.This is not required, Many stay at whatever version they are at for years. The one thing that sometimes requires an upgrade is a MacOS upgrade that leaves versions (on many softwares) behind.

    Just to add about one specific point: Moneydance+ is an optional add on. You can still use the program as you have been, there's no requirement to use this service, or any other form of bank connection.

    Thanks for this. I don't visit here often but every time I do I find your info (& @dwg) most helpful. I came here to find out if my soon to arrive upgrade to an Apple M4 is going to work ok. And IK can thank you because I just paid my $25.
