Quicken Classic

I have used this app for several years and loved it for budgeting and setting up categories to track income and expenses. It worked flawlessly. Now, it never syncs correctly with my bank accounts. The balances it returns are absurd. Sometimes tens of thousands of dollars off. At first, I was able to correct the problem by signing out of it and signing back in. Then, I had to delete it and reinstall. Now, even those measures don't work. In addition, categories no longer sync correctly from my desk top to the mobile app. Many assigned categories on the desk top are changed to "adjustment" in the app when the two or synced. I renewed my subscription this year and deeply regret it. I will lose years of data by getting rid of it, but at this point I see no alternative. I am not a happy camper.

I experience frequent issues with Quicken and customer service is never helpful

Frequent connectivity issues. Almost daily, when refreshing accounts, the app activity icon spins forever. The app has to be terminated and restarted for it to work again. Good grief! Fix it already!! Also, something as simple as alphabetizing account names appears to be impossible for this company. They keep adding useless features but can’t fix the most simple problems. This has persisted for years. There are more! Terrible developers!

Quicken in iOS cannot be trusted - most of the numbers are incorrects. This is a problem from projecting balance in the future, while the current day numbers are giving an incorrect balance of account. Additionally, the connectors in Quicken are frequently having problems (especially incorrect values).

It’s a great tool, to keep the personal finances organized and to not loose the control.

I am currently using my iPad Pro as a “Mac Lite” setup (connected to a 27-inch monitor, desktop Magic Trackpad, and desktop Magic Keyboard). I know it will never replace my Mac, but it does a very good job handling a lot of the work I normally do on a Mac. It has been quite pleasant, actually. So far, everything has worked well—albeit with some adjustment—but Quicken, which I use quite regularly, falls well short. To call it a “companion” feels like an overstatement. It’s closer to a barely useful viewer than anything functional for real work. Any Quicken tasks I need to do will continue to be done on my Mac, and I will be deleting this app, as I have no intention of using it further and it’s simply taking up storage space.

My biggest reason that I still use quicken is the budget portion of the app, but it’s been broken for a month now. The only way for it to update the true amount is if I either log out and back in or go through the settings and select to resync the data. Cloud sync not working makes this and the desktop app worthless to myself.

It appears this app no longer works, as it will not open in my iPad.

Software is only as smart as the people who develop it. I’m using quicken and trying to reconcile my accounts and it keeps creating false transactions, deleting wrong transactions, and I have to keep going back to fix the problems and errors, which means that the software developers are intellectually challenged because they can’t build a stable version without errors. Shame on you. I’m going to use Excel instead

Budget balances remaining are not updating within the app when you add transactions also within the app. Have to go “reset” app data after each transaction for it to refresh the budget. Very annoying and broken functionality for weeks that support doesn’t even know about it able to assist with
