goi · common questions

Does goi work offline?

Yes. Every core feature works with no network: reviewing, adding words, dictionary lookup, stats, and backups.

Is goi free?

Yes. There are no ads and no in-app purchases. Paid extras may arrive later, but the core stays free: reviewing, adding words, and the bundled dictionaries.

Which languages does it cover?

Three: Spanish to English, Japanese to English, and English on its own for building vocabulary, where a card holds a word and its definition. Each has a dictionary bundled in the app, so lookup works with no network. A deck can pair any two languages; the ones above are the pairs a dictionary can answer for.

Is my data backed up?

Your data lives on your device. Export a backup file anytime from Settings, then Data; it holds every deck, card, review and preference. Restoring merges rather than replaces, so bringing back an older backup never costs you newer work. Export before switching devices.

How do I delete my data?

Delete the app. goi stores nothing server-side, so removing the app removes your data. Exported backup files are yours to keep or delete.

Can I request a feature?

Please do. goi is built by one person and shaped by the people who use it. Email with "idea" in the subject line.

Compass · common questions

Does Compass work offline?

Yes; always. Compass has no server, so every feature works the same in airplane mode.

How do I import my transactions?

Export a CSV from your bank's website or app, then open it in Compass. It works out which columns hold the date, description, and amount; when it can't tell, you pick them before anything is imported, and duplicates of rows you already have are skipped. No export handy? Tap "Try a sample file" on the Home screen to see Compass with made-up transactions, then undo it from Import history in Settings.

How does Compass sort my transactions?

Rules you create come first, then merchants you've filed before, then, on iPhones with Apple Intelligence, Apple's on-device model. Anything it isn't sure about waits in Review with a suggestion, and one tap files it. Choose "Always" and it never asks about that merchant again.

Is my bank data uploaded anywhere?

No. Files are parsed on your iPhone. Compass has no accounts and no server; there is nowhere to upload to.

Why doesn't Compass link to my bank?

By design. Bank linking means handing your credentials to an aggregator that sits between you and your money. A CSV gives Compass nothing but the file you chose to share.

Is Compass free?

Yes. There are no ads and no in-app purchases.

How do I move to a new iPhone?

Your iPhone backup includes Compass, so restoring a backup brings it along. You can also export everything from Settings, then Export, and bring it back on the new phone with Restore from export.

How do I delete my data?

Delete the app. Compass stores nothing server-side, so removing the app removes your data. Exported files are yours to keep or delete.
