Usefulness

Hardly worth the effort to load app on devices, just plain laking simple automation in basic math of budgeting features.

Constantly Crashes

I’ve used this app for years and for the last couple months or so it constantly crashes and closes. I have to reopen it attempt to log my data only for it to crash again. This morning it crashed three times in a row before I was able to submit my budget data. I’m going to look for a replacement at this point.

Ace Budget 3

I've been using Ace Budget for 15 years now, great way to just track expenses and see some spending data, takes about 1 min a day to enter data, worth it to see longterm spending habits.

Easy to use

I’ve been an accounts user for 15 years tracking my finances. Just added this application to my routine. If it was combined with the other application, I’d give it 5 stars. Please find a way to merge the two. I’m exploring other options but don’t want to really switch.
