Slow fill in Memorized Payee field

Don Neufeld

I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this....when I fill in a name in the "Customer" field of an invoice, which draws from the Memorized Payee List, the appearance of each letter into the field is painfully...yes painfully....slow! I can type an entire name and the second letter finally arrives on screen. I realize this has to do with the search of the database, but in 2021 and with an apparently up to date app (downloaded yesterday) this is unacceptable. With only maybe a hundred names to search, this needs to be seamless. My previous 2016 version always had an annoying lag, but this is even slower. Any suggestions? Workaround? Setting changes? Can the programmers at Quicken please get on this!
