Prism lets you add your paydays in the app, and it will remind you of when (and how much) you get paid! Juggling cash flow has never been easier!

Add a manual biller if your biller doesn't have an online payment option. Prism will remind you when those bills are due, and you can then mark those bills as paid in the app.

Cons
Con Import tags all transactions on import under the same default category
Upon import of financial info, all transactions will be set to the same default category meaning the user will have to go back and change the category by hand to the correct one.
Con Costs money
Unlike most applications for Linux Moneydance does cost money, $49 to be exact. So while it is the most robust option available to Linux users, it will cost to be able to use it.
