I used the Andy Crowe/Velociteach PMI-ACP prep book which includes two exams to study and pass the test.
If I had to do it now, I'd use the Agile Practice Guide as it provides good coverage of different frameworks and a good quality online practice question site.
I found the ACP to be the easiest of the three PMI credentials I'd earned - I was out of the test center in under an hour :-)

Kiron, easiest? Wow, that’s encouraging. I did PMP and PMP BPA. PMP was pretty easy for me, PBA was much harder because at the end there were also different topics than Business Analyses itself. Or I thought:)
Like Kiron mentioned Agile practice guide is a must. I added PMI-ACP exam prep book by Mike Griffith and PMI-ACP exam simulator/ fastrack by RMC.
Please do make sure that you get the latest version as per Guide to PMBOK-6th edition. Saving Changes...

I took an online class through LearnSmart (now Red Vector). I downloaded some apps on my phone to do quizzes. Others have mentioned books. I think I used Mike Griffith's. Saving Changes...

I also think ACP was the easiest of the three I did. I think I felt the least confident going in but ended up with the highest score. There was a lot of scenario based questions. The key was just to remember the roles and who is responsible for what. Saving Changes...

Lenka - I also have applied for PMI ACP recently. Please note that PMI ACP is changing. Post next week, the exam is being updated. So, in my research, I found that most of online materials/primers available are also being updated.
If you are trying to buy something online or attain the needed PDU's via online/classes please check if they reflect the updated stuff. Saving Changes...

When I prepped for my PMI-ACP, my online training consisted of some liberal reading of the Scrum Guide, a dozen or so practice exams on PMTraining.com, and reviewing the "PMI-ACP Exam Content Outline" on PMI's site.
While I used a few non-online sources as well, these three covered most of my prep. Saving Changes...
