Privacy and export

Your data is yours. Papirer is designed to give you full control over your information: what's stored, how it's used, and what you can do with it.

Privacy mode

If you're in a public place or simply don't want your numbers visible, you can enable privacy mode from the main menu. All amounts (balance, expenses, goals, recurring) are hidden and replaced with dots. Descriptions, categories, and dates remain visible.

To turn it off, go back to the menu or tap the eye icon in the header. Your preference is remembered between sessions.

Exporting your data

You can export your transactions at any time from the Reports screen. Tap the export icon in the top-right corner and the export assistant will open.

Available formats

Period

You can choose from several preset ranges or define a custom one:

• This month
• Last month
• 3 months
• 6 months
• This year
• 1 year
• All time
• Custom (with date picker)

Filters

On top of the period, you can apply optional filters to refine your export:

• Transaction type — All, expenses only, or income only
• Categories — Select specific categories (Pro)
• Amount range — Minimum and maximum (Pro)
• List — All, personal only, or shared only (Pro)

Once configured, tap Export and your device's share sheet will open so you can save or send the file.

What's included in the export?

• Date and time of each transaction
• Amount and currency
• Description

4. Confirm the action in the dialog

This action cannot be undone. The following will be permanently deleted:

Resetting data

This deletes all transactions and categories but keeps your account, settings, and active subscription.

Data security

Where is my data stored?

Your data is stored on secure cloud servers. We use encryption in transit (HTTPS) and at rest. Authentication credentials are stored locally in your device's secure storage.

Is my data shared?

We do not sell your personal data. We share limited data with trusted service providers strictly necessary to operate the app (such as subscription management and error reporting). Your transactions and financial data are never shared. For full details, see our Privacy Policy.

The app sends anonymous error reports to help us detect and fix technical issues. These do not include any of your transaction data.

Are my usage habits tracked?

No. Papirer does not use analytics or behavioral tracking tools. We collect anonymous error reports to detect and fix technical issues, but these do not include your transaction data or personal information.

Can I use the app without an account?

No. An account is required to sync data between devices and access features like shared lists. You can sign up with your email (code-based authentication) or with your Apple account.
