Frequently Asked Questions

Where is my data stored?
All your financial data is stored locally on your device. Nothing is sent to any server.
Can I sync data between devices?
Not currently. Kakeibo is designed as a single-device, privacy-first app.
What is the Kakeibo method?
Kakeibo is a Japanese budgeting system created by journalist Hani Motoko in 1904. It encourages mindful spending by categorising expenses into four pillars: Needs, Wants, Culture, and Unexpected.
How do I delete my data?
Uninstalling the app removes all data, since everything is stored on-device. There is no account or server data to delete.
Does the app need an internet connection?
Only for downloading fonts on first launch. After that, the app works fully offline.
