Answers for getting started, your account and its security, sync, currencies, Pro and your data.
Getting started
When can I get Adelante?
Adelante is in testing now and coming to iPhone, Android and the web. See what it does, or email us to hear when it launches.
Put Adelante on your home screen
Adelante works in your browser and installs like an app:
- iPhone: open it in Safari, tap the Share button, then Add to Home Screen.
- Android: open it in Chrome, open the menu, then Install app (or Add to Home screen).
It then opens full screen and works offline.
Setting up your first account
Tap Add account, give it a name (Checking, Cash…), enter what’s in it today and the date of that balance. Then add what repeats (paycheck, rent, bills) under Recurring, and the forecast fills in by itself.
Your account
I forgot my password
On the sign-in screen, tap Forgot password? and enter your email. Open the link we send to choose a new password. No email after a few minutes? Check spam.
Confirming your email
Open the link in the email we sent when you signed up. If it expired or never came: Menu → Resend confirmation email (you can ask once a minute).
Change your password or email
Menu → Change password or Menu → Change email. A new email takes over once you confirm it from the new inbox.
Turn on two-step sign-in
Menu → Two-step sign-in adds a second step when you sign in: a 6-digit code from an authenticator app on your phone. Save the recovery codes it shows you; each one signs you in once if you lose your phone.
See where you’re signed in
Menu → Signed-in devices lists everywhere your account is signed in. Sign out any you don’t recognise (or Sign out everywhere else), then change your password.
Sync & offline
Does it work without a connection?
Yes. Adelante keeps your data on your device, so it opens instantly and you can keep adding and editing offline. Changes sync the next time you’re connected.
My other device doesn’t show my changes
Sign in to the same account on both. Menu → Sync tells you if changes are still waiting to sync (the device is offline) or everything is synced. Opening the app while connected syncs it.
The same budget was changed on two devices
Adelante merges the two sets of changes for you, detail by detail. Only if both devices changed the very same detail does one win: the change from the device that syncs last.
Money, currencies & languages
Change an account’s currency
Open Accounts, tap Edit on the account, and pick a Currency (16 are available, including US dollars, euros, pounds, Mexican, Colombian, Argentine and Chilean pesos, reais and more). Changing it relabels amounts already saved; it doesn’t convert them.
Simple or Advanced money format
Each account has a Money format. Simple uses whole amounts and rounds what you enter up to a round number; Advanced keeps exact amounts, including cents. You can switch any time; saved amounts aren’t changed.
Change the language
Menu → Language: English, Español, Português, Français or العربية (Arabic, right to left), or Automatic to follow your device.
My real balance is different from the forecast
Open Accounts, tap Edit on the account, and enter today’s actual balance under Adjust. Adelante adds an adjustment entry so the forecast starts from the right number.
Free, Pro & ads
What’s the difference between Free and Pro?
Free has full forecasting, Insights and offline sync, with 2 accounts, 12 months ahead, and a small ad. Pro removes ads and adds unlimited accounts, unlimited look-ahead, low-balance alerts and CSV export. Pro isn’t on sale yet.
Why do I see an ad?
The free plan shows one small, labelled ad. Ads are never based on your budget: no amounts, names or notes ever go to an advertiser. Pro removes them.
Change your privacy choices
Menu → Privacy choices lets you turn Usage statistics and Ad measurement on or off at any time. Saying no to ad measurement doesn’t remove ads; it shows them without ad cookies.
Your data & privacy
Does Adelante connect to my bank?
No. Adelante never asks for your bank login and never moves money: you enter the balances and bills you want to plan.
Download all your data
Menu → Download all my data saves one file with your account details, your whole budget and your privacy choices.
Delete your Adelante account
Menu → Delete my Adelante account, then enter your password. Your account and all its data are deleted right away, on every device. This can’t be undone. Can’t sign in? Ask us by email.
