Quicken Mobile changes my budget numbers

Hello Quicken Community,

Since I couldn't find any posts within the past year discussing this matter so thought I'd ask again.

I stopped using the mobile Quicken a few years back because it would change the budget numbers I had plugged into monthly budget on my desktop.

Since it's been a while since I turned on mobile sync, I thought I would check to see if this issue has been resolved.

I would only use the mobile app when I was traveling and it was nice to stay on top of finances while away, but was not worth it when I would have to painstakingly go through and revise the monthly budgeted numbers to my original amounts.

Anyone know if Quicken may have resolved this problem? It would sure be nice to log in on mobile when traveling.

Thanks,

Steve

    Hello @SMCHome,

    Thank you for reaching out! If you are referring to the widespread issue from a couple of years ago where sync was causing budgets to change, that issue was marked resolved.

    While sync doesn't cause problems for most people, it is a good idea to make a backup of your file prior to turning it on, just in case.

    I hope this helps!

    Hi Quicken Kristina,

    I posted this same question March , 2025 and received several responses from Users. The best advice I received was just don't use mobile sync if you want to keep your original budget numbers because for whatever reason, they change to different numbers after syncing.

    None of the replies mentioned any resolution by Quicken and I have not seen anything to clarify this issue being resolved so I thought I'd see if there have been any fixes by Quicken which it appears the answer is no.

    Thanks for your reply, I appreciate you reaching out!

    Steve
