Question 1

How do I backup my data in Upcount?

Accepted Answer

Upcount includes a backup and restore functionality, but it's manual—you need to export data through the app interface. There's no automatic cloud backup, so regular manual exports are necessary to prevent data loss.

Question 2

Upcount or Invoice Ninja: which is better for a small team?

Accepted Answer

Upcount is best for offline, privacy-focused use with no costs, while Invoice Ninja offers cloud features, collaboration, and integrations but may require subscriptions. Choose based on whether you prioritize data control or cloud convenience.

Question 3

Can I use Upcount on multiple computers?

Accepted Answer

Upcount is designed for single-device use since it stores data locally in an SQLite database. To use on multiple computers, you must manually copy the database file, which can be error-prone and doesn't support real-time sync.

Question 4

Is Upcount secure for handling invoices and client data?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Upcount stores all data locally on your device with no cloud transmission, enhancing privacy. However, security relies on your device's protection, as the README doesn't mention encryption features for the SQLite database.

Question 5

How to add a new language translation to Upcount?

Accepted Answer

To add a language, run 'pnpm extract' to generate translation files, then manually create a .po file in the locales folder using a tool like POEdit, as per the README's instructions for developers.

Question 6

Does Upcount support automatic payment reminders?

Accepted Answer

No, Upcount does not include automatic payment reminders or email notifications. It focuses on offline invoicing creation and time tracking, so reminders must be handled manually by the user.
