We're here to help you get the most out of HomeGuard.
Where is my data stored?
All your data is stored locally on your device. HomeGuard has no servers and never transmits your information. Your data is encrypted with SQLCipher and the encryption key is stored in your device's secure Keychain.
How do I back up my data?
Go to Settings and tap "Export Data" to save a JSON backup of all your homes, rooms, items, and maintenance history. You can share this file via AirDrop, email, or save it to Files. To restore, use "Import Data" from the same screen.
How do I add items to a room?
Tap on any room from the dashboard, then tap the "+" button. You can pick from our library of common household items (with pre-loaded maintenance schedules) or create a custom item.
How does voice input work?
Tap the microphone button to use voice commands. You can say things like "I changed the HVAC filter today" or "Remind me to clean the gutters in 3 months." HomeGuard will match your words to the right item and create the appropriate log entry or reminder.
How do I cancel my subscription?
HomeGuard subscriptions are managed through Apple. Go to your iPhone Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions > HomeGuard to manage or cancel. You'll keep access to Pro features until the end of your billing period.
Can I use HomeGuard on multiple devices?
HomeGuard currently stores data on a single device. You can transfer your data between devices using the Export/Import feature in Settings.
