Problems and fixes

Quicken won’t import QIF into a bank account
Recent Quicken versions only accept QIF for some account types. Use QFX instead: switch "Save as" to QFX for Quicken.
Transactions are duplicated
QIF has no transaction ids, so apps can’t tell what you already imported. Import each date range once, or use OFX or QFX, which carry ids.
Dates are wrong
QIF dates are written month first. If your app expects day first, check its import date setting.

Questions

What is a QIF file?
QIF (Quicken Interchange Format) is an older plain-text format for transactions. Many apps still read it, but it has no ids to prevent duplicates.
Should I use QIF or QFX?
Use QFX for current Quicken and OFX for most other apps. Choose QIF only when your app doesn’t accept those.
Is my bank file uploaded?
No. FileInto converts it inside your browser tab.
What are the limits?
Files up to 25 MB. Every file gets a full preview free. Downloads up to 25 transactions are free, no account needed; a Day Pass ($9 for 24 hours) or Unlimited ($7 a month) has no row limit. It works in current versions of Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox, on computers and phones.
