Back to features Backup Vault

If something goes wrong, the data has a way back.

Fakturino combines automatic local restore points, an external JSON copy and controlled restoration of profiles, clients and invoices.

Local restore points complement iCloud sync. Keep an external copy for the loss of a device.

Three different roles

Sync, restore point and copy are not the same thing

Each layer addresses a different situation. Only together do they provide a comprehensible path from normal work to returning after the loss of a device.

01

Backup Vault

Local history of restore points within an application on a specific device. It occurs after important changes and before risky operations.

For restoring earlier data
02

External JSON copy

A separate file stored outside of Fakturino. It will remain available even after the device is lost or the app is deleted.

For a portable copy outside the application
03

iCloud sync

Continuously transfers work data between own devices. Changes and deletions can also be carried over, so it is not itself a historical backup.

Invoice Backup Vault

Recovery points are created at times when data matters

Fakturino prepares a separate snapshot after working with the data and before an action that could change a larger part of the records.

after startup and after saved changes,
after a change received from iCloud and when exiting in the background,
before deleting a client or invoice, importing and resetting data.

The oldest available snapshot is preserved. An individual snapshot can also be exported as an external JSON copy.

Controlled recovery

First a comparison. Then choice and confirmation.

Before the data change, you will see the counts of "Now" items and in the selected snapshot or JSON backup. The extent of recovery remains in your hands.

  1. 1
    You select a source

    Verified snapshot from Vault or external JSON file.

  2. 2
    You compare the range

    Profiles, clients, invoices and items before the current state of the application.

  3. 3
    You choose what to replace

    Separate company profile and settings or clients and invoices.

Restoring clients and invoices replaces the data in this category; it does not merge it. Before making the change, Fakturino attempts to create another safety snapshot.

Backup extent

Invoice data and company settings together

It is not a copy of every technical file in the app. The backup is designed to restore the content you need to resume invoicing.

Company profile

ID number, VAT number, address, e-mail, accounts, payment methods, VAT, numbering and company logo.

Clients

Names, contacts, identification data and links to issued documents.

Invoices and items

Statuses, dates, currencies, exchange rates, payment data, notes and snapshots of supplier and customer data.

Appearance and output

PDF settings, color, notes, footer and email templates for further work.

What is not included: history of the Vault itself, Premium permissions, diagnostics, Spotlight index, widget cache or previously exported PDF and ISDOC files.
Integrity Verification

A damaged snapshot is not used for recovery

Fakturino checks the format, size, data counts and SHA-256 fingerprint. It first writes the new snapshot to the working folder, verifies it, and only then places it in the Vault.

Integrity is not encryption

The JSON backup is a readable file. Save it to a trusted, protected storage, such as your own iCloud Drive, corporate cloud, or a secure drive.
