Another shameless plug for Lunch Money (https://lunchmoney.app/)
I tried YNAB, but found the UI confusing. Lunch Money is super friendly and still gives me a great overview of my finances
YNAB is a glorified spreadsheet and did not import past data. I found it exceedingly tedious and not helpful. I am currently using Monarch and it's far, far better. It's a bit pricey, but so far as I've found, it's the best.
They give you a link that allows others to try monarch for 30 days (rather than their egregiously short trial of like 7 days):

I get a discount if you buy after the trial, but there's no need.
I'll have to check out lunch money too
Buckets is a free alternative that I switched to when ynab massively increased the price and dropped their grandfathering agreement. Same principals as ynab, but suited me a lot better and is much much cheaper.
Couldn't agree with this more.
