Maybe out of touch. I've used them all (Mint, ynab, pocketsmith, buxfer, some google-sheets-based app, probably tried a dozen others). All of the auto-sync features had obvious bugs. It works for a few months and then you end up with junk data. But if it works for you, carry on!
Contra anecdote: been using auto import with YNAB for years with multiple accounts and never had junk data. At least, not of that means the data is wrong/corrupt.
The two issues I have had:
1. Have to reauthorize bank connection, but that's Plaid's issue I guess.
2. Payee names are all over the place because it's often the merchant name. I used to try and fix these and only have a single page payee for each entity, but gave up.
