Question

Turn Off Intuit Intelligence SideBar

How do I disable or Turn Off the Intuit Intelligence SideBar? It pops up every time I open an invoice, and in order to do any work at all I have to close it Every. Single. Time. This in neither ideal nor efficient, and frankly, it's wasting my time. If I have to fight through an annoying feature I did not ask for and DO NOT WANT, then there's really no reason to stay with the platform. I need an invoicing and bookkeeping solution that works WITH me, not AGAINST me. My industry offers tons of custom options, and Ya'll have raised the prices to the point that other platforms have started to look appealing. Please tell me how to kill this annoying, unnecessary feature. Or at least assure me (and others like me) that someone is working on a solution.

I understand the struggle on your end, @mooky407. The idea behind Intuit Intelligence is to blend AI and business data to handle the tedious manual entry and give you instant, personalized answers so you can stay focused on your goals instead of your spreadsheets.

 

While there isn't currently an option to turn this feature off, I suggest providing experience feedback by clicking the Gear icon, then Feedback. After that, type your feedback experience and hit Next to submit. This way, we can enhance your experience with us, and it will be shared with our Product Development team.

 

Feel free to return to this thread if you have other concerns. We're always here to help.

Don't let them lie.  The feedback has done NOTHING.  Look at all the topics on the boards.  It does not get the attention it deserves.  This is the copy and paste reply they put in all of their answers.  Yet, somehow with all the feedback asking to just be able to turn it off goes nowhere.  

 

If they truly cared about their customers, there would be an option to turn it off.  But it looks too good on their metrics that their company is on the "cutting edge" of AI.  Meanwhile their cutting edge AI "NEVER" correct.  Always intrusive, a nuisance to have to "just simply close the window EVERY TIME."  

 

But rest assured, I imagine they are already working on more ways to make it something you will HAVE to interact with.
