DEVICES · 2026-08-02

BASICS · 2026-08-02
Spaces, sharing, and what stays private

Why the app works with no signal, what happens when two devices disagree, and how to tell it has caught up.

What Buhata understands, how to say several things at once, and how to fix it when it hears you wrong.
Common questions
It isn't syncing. What do I check first?
The dot at the bottom of the sidebar says what sync is doing. If it reads synced with a time beside it, sync isn't your problem. If it never leaves waiting, sign out and back in on the device that's behind. The account is the source of truth, and the device takes its copy from there.
Voice heard the wrong thing. Where did it go?
Nowhere. Nothing is written until you confirm it. The confirm screen lists every action first, each line can be edited or dropped, and you can add a line it missed entirely.
Can my family see my Private Space?
No. Private is shared with nobody, including whoever administers the household. Sharing is decided per Space and you choose which.
I deleted something by accident.
Tap a repeating money entry, such as a bill, on one of its days. It asks which you meant: this occurrence, this and future, or the entire series.
For anything else there are Restore Points, in Settings under Sync and backup. Free keeps the newest 3 daily copies. Plus keeps up to one an hour for 24 hours, and the newest 7 daily copies. Premium keeps up to one every 30 minutes for 24 hours, and the newest 30 daily copies. A restore replaces what's on your account, on every device, and leaves shared Spaces alone. The device you restore on keeps what it held, and offers to put it back if you picked the wrong one.
If you want a copy that's yours to keep, Settings has Email me my data.
How do I get a receipt?
Where you bought the plan decides where the receipt lives. Bought through Google Play or the App Store, the receipt is in that store’s account. Bought directly, the receipt is emailed by our payment provider and the same page lists every charge.
Do you read what I write?
No. Your entries are yours. What leaves your device is what sync needs to carry. The privacy page says exactly what that is.
Still stuck? Write to [email protected], or send a request from the support form in the help bubble. Say what you pressed and what happened instead. That one sentence saves a day of back and forth.
