Ace Budget 3 App Reviews

Love the app. Only wish you could move transactions between categories, cuz I sometimes enter things in the wrong categories. New version has a couple tiny glitches, like sometimes deleting a new entry halfway through entering it.

It used to be my favorite budget tracker, which I immediately paid of version 3 on its release. However, this release is a big disappointment. e.g. Shouldnt a paid major upgrade at least support iPhone 6+ screen size? Also bugs bugs bugs. e.g. When trying a enter the amount, it is not a number pad but instead came up with a qwerty keyboard with no number key. Hope they fix this very soon.

I wouldnt buy this app if you want to have your information synced across multiple devices. It is terrible. Itll only synch it to a device if you open up the app on each app right after you add an item on one device. If you wait too long then it wont update and if you change an existing item it wont update. Also if you have to re download the database for some reason it will download an outdated one. The synch doesnt actually update the database which is probably why you have a time limit to open the app on every device. So youll have to upload your most current database from your devices but the chance of that working is very slim since that rarely works in my case. Also their customer service is terrible!! I emailed this issue to them on one of their previous versions and I got no response and obviously no fix. I thought they would actually look into so I tried again and clearly I was mistaken. Awful company for how they treat you.

Right out of the gate it wouldnt, and still wont, let me create a category. Which it insists that I do. Gambled and lost.

The monthly cycle issue really needs to be fixed. It requires a ton of manual intervention and screws up everything when the cycle ends early due to a 31 day month.

I have been using this app for years and am generally happy with it. However, the biggest issue is that categories—both monthly and weekly, rollover too soon. For example, I set my weekly category to roll over on Sunday. It worked for awhile, then began rolling over on Saturday. I let it go. Now, it has begun rolling over on Friday. If this bug were fixed, I would definitely rate the app at 5 stars. It has been a longstanding issue, though.

I love everything about this app. It would be VERY helpful to add a "Sort" button option so I could first sort my entries (alphabetically or by type, highest to lowest amount) under the "Income" titles (and list them all in desired order at the top), then also separately sort the "Expenses" entries below the "Income" entries, also with options of alphabetical order or by type or highest to lowest amount order. That would be sweet!

What would be really awesome would be if you could create your budget in ace budget and then use your financial information from the Accounts2 app to keep track of where you are on the budget. That would be Amazing !!

Ive been using this app for about 4 hrs and have loved it. And Ill keep using it. However, PLEASE fix the syncing issues between devices.

We used acebudget2 for about a year and a half before trying 3. Ace budget3 has the same sync problem that 2 had at the beginning. Overall a great app, but useless for families if it does not sync between multiple devices. Please fix this.

I bought Ace Budge 2 and used it for years. Now they asked me to update to 3 and I did. I paid for it again but I couldnt transfer old date to the new 3 at all. And the colors of the budge lines are TOO bright, it hurts my eyes.

Great app! My wife and I use it as our personal budget tracker.

Excellent application. But it needs add the Arabic language

Love this app - the only downside (and a big one) is that I cant sync with my iPad and iPhone 6. But I use it daily and find it the best fit for tracking my expenses.

My wife and I are trying to fine an easy way to track our spending and keep each other informed at the same time. This app does a great job at that. It syncs our two iPhones by sending an email to each other where you then have the ability to click the link to add it to the app on that phone. Does it sync simultaneously?-no. It would be nice if it did. That might have to be a built in apple product. BUT does it sync with a few steps?-YES. Im not picky, I will take what I can get. Overall great well organized easy to use budget app! Thanks

Ive used this app for years. I really believe it is one of the best budget applications around. Very intuitive and easy to use. The only addition I would want is an online site to be able to input the information and have it sync with all my devices!

There was a issue where the new month cycle starts several days too early on budgets that were created in ace budget 2 (new budgets work fine). I found that it can be fixed by saving the cycle as something else then going back and saving it to the original value again. Overall the app works well. Would like support for 3D Touch and automatic syncing with iCloud AND Dropbox

Company totally unresponsive, offering zero, I repeat, zero support. After not finding answer in the meager instructions and in the meager FAQ, wrote to support every other day for 4 weeks without a single response or acknowledgement. Its a shame that such a potentially good app is rendered valueless by the absolute lack of support. Beware of investing data over significant time that will be wasted if you run into an issue that requires support.

Just bought this app to get the newest version and it wont even open. It crashes every time. Also, help says to transfer data from the 2 to the 3 app, go to settings in the ace budget 2 app and select transfer to new app. Well it doesnt exist in my app and it no longer exists on the market place for me to download an update so that I have "transfer to new app" show up. Ive been using this app for a year and a half now and really dont want to lose all of my information!!

I try hard but still do nothing its promise. the old version is way better. This app is a waste of my money I delete one hour after purchase.
