I agree! I love it so far.
Its nice to have all of my accounts in one app and have nice reminders (and statements!) available to me!

And you can also have all of your reward points (ie airlines and hotel partners) listed in one place as well. A great organizational tool.
For those accounts that don't have internet access, you can setup a manual account, enter your monthly pmt if any and due date. It will still remind you every month just like the accounts that have online access.
Also all of your paperless statements are stored in there as well in pdf format. So at a glance you can select one of your creditors and see al of the bills at once. It's a really neat system that I can't believe is a free service.
One other thing, when you link your accounts, it names it for example, Barclays (X1023), well if you go into the settings for that account, you can rename it what you want. This is helpful when you have more than one account with a creditor and you want to distinguish at a glance which account is which.
I have it on my iPhone on the main page so I can always see if I have an alert that a bill is coming due. Like I said, it's such a neat app. Oh and it handles GE and Commenity accounts just fine as well. Many apps, even the paid ones, don't support these accounts.
Thank you so much for posting this! I have been using Check.me (after canceling Mint because it wouldn't handle my comenity cards) and Check doesn't work for GE so I have been looking for an alternative. I will be downloading it now 
Just got an email saying Manilla was closing

+1 I feel bad for OP, they just got Manilla set up and working and now they are discontinuing the service.
Yeah, got the same email. It's going away on the 1st of June.
I'm surprised the business model failed given how so many people know of and use the service.

I personally think it was flawed from the get go: I don't know of many financial institutions which have the bulk of American consumer's accounts that don't have electronic statements, and most of those have had them for maybe a decade.
If your financial play is gaining revenue off something the big boys give away for free already, how is it going to work?
Maybe I'm missing something, and it's unfortunate as it looked like a good service, but I just didn't see it as monetizable in that fashion; what I am surprised by is why they didn't try for secondary income streams (or maybe they did and it didn't pan out) but it doesn't sound like they even bothered trying the last ditch effort: donations or subscription model from the consumers. For an app like this that puts time back in my life, I would've paid a few dollars a year for it on a subscription model, don't know where the break point is but it might've been enough for them to at least break even or reduce their burn rate while they attempted to fix things.
Presumably they thought of and discarded the idea, and if you're convinced it's a losing venture, better to close now than continue to throw money away but with the two month tear down, they likely could've tried it with a refund policy if it didn't fly. Who knows /shrug, but is unfortunate as it is a good idea.
