FAQ

Is my data encrypted?

Yes. Sensitive fields are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM. The key lives in a server-only environment variable; database backups expose only ciphertext for those fields. See Privacy & security for details.

Can I link my bank?

No — and that's by design. Finance Tracker doesn't use Plaid or any aggregator, so your bank credentials never leave your bank. You bring your own data; the bulk-import flow exists to make that fast.

Can I import from another app?

Yes, as long as the other app exports CSV or Excel. Most do. Match the column headers in our template, upload, fix any preview-time errors, and confirm.

Is there a mobile app?

Not a native app today. The web app is responsive — phone, tablet, and desktop layouts are all considered. You can install it as a home-screen shortcut on iOS and Android via your browser's “Add to home screen” option.

Can multiple people share an account?

No, accounts are single-user today. Joint household tracking is on the backlog but not built. For now, partners and roommates either use the same login or maintain separate accounts.

What happens if I delete a label that's in use?

The label is removed from every transaction it was on. The transactions themselves are not deleted. Budget groups that included that label recompute without it.

Can I export my data?

Yes. From Settings, click Export data for a full JSON dump of expenses, income, labels, groups, cards, and recurring payments. CSV export is on the roadmap.

What currencies are supported?

Amounts are stored as raw numbers and displayed with your default currency formatter. Multi-currency tracking with live conversion is not built today — for now, mixed-currency users typically pick one display currency and convert on entry.
