Backup & export

Your data is stored locally in data/avion.db. A timestamped backup is saved automatically each time the app starts (newest 10 kept in data/backups/). You can also download a copy now and store it anywhere (USB, cloud drive).

Recent automatic backups

    To restore: stop the app, copy a backup file from data/backups/ over data/avion.db (replacing it), then start the app again.

    Categorization rules

    Auto-assign a category and classification when a transaction matches.
