How do you keep track of it all? (Personal Finance Apps)

What are you guys using to keep track of all your personal finances? I'd love an app that keeps everything in one place, but I'm worried about giving everyone my info.
Our biggest problem is tracking expenses and expense planning, but I'd also like something to track 401k's, loans, investment accounts, savings, etc.

I have used quicken deluxe the last 4 years and it has been an easy way to track everything in one place.

I've been using Mint for years. It does require some constant maintenance, but it's an excellent tool.

Personal capital for me. Mint has completely neglected their investment section which kills it for me.

An app will help you keep track of stuff, but only you can commit yourself to using it correctly.
Apps can facilitate the goal, but they don't make it happen like pressing a magic button.

I've used the same cheapass method since February of 2012 but don't mind it at all. Every purchase I make I write down in the 'notes' on my phone. Then once every week or 10 days or so I log that in a spreadsheet on my comp. I can basically do anything an app will but it's free and I kind of enjoy it. Over time I've adjusted and fine tuned the spreadsheet to be what I want. I break my expenses down into a ton of different categories (and have categories for revenue as well, although obviously there aren't as many of those) and keep track by month, and in the final tab of the spreadhseet have a year end total (both cumulative and monthly average). I can tell you how much money I spent on gas in July in 2018 and 2012 by consulting the spreadsheet. Yes it's definitely old school and takes more effort btu I've never been a fan of linking a card to some of those services (or paying for any of them) and I like that I can make my system as specific and personal as I want.
