This shortcut lets you:

  • Add transactions (works with Siri)
  • Import bank files (csv/qif)
  • Automatically create a transaction if you pay with your phone on iOS 17‘s (transaction automation)
  • Add transactions automatically to Splitwise

Download Shortcut

Each of these is optional ofc.

Setup

  • Download Pythonista and open it once (sadly not free)
  • Generate an access token for your account here: YNAB dev settings, copy it and paste it during the setup
  • Run the shortcut and follow the instructions

I’m happy to help if you run into any issues :)

    Damn adding transactions to YNAB and Splitwise at the same time is a game changer. I’ve struggled with that before — how do folks do it? A virtual “Money Back From Splitwise” account?

      The system I’ve set up here lets you add a transaction via the shortcut and optionally add the same one to Splitwise and split it with one person. So the money you’re owed in Splitwise doesn’t show up anywhere.

      Before I had to enter the same transaction twice (basically for every expense since I’m using it to split transactions with my gf), which was super annoying. I know a few people who have a similar setup. It’s not a perfect solution, but it’s a lot more convenient than before.
