Finance Universe stores private financial records on your device and optional encrypted backups in your connected cloud account. If you choose Shared Circles or connect a friend, selected shared records are also held by the Finance Universe circle service on Cloudflare; Google Firebase handles live account sign-in and change markers. Use the separate controls below for each data type. You can request hosted-data deletion without reinstalling the app.
Delete First Flight 300 participation (version 1.0.81 and later)
Open Settings > Subscription & Billing > First Flight 300 > Delete offer participation. Review and confirm, then verify the Google account used for the offer while online. Daily qualifying usage and recent session records are removed and promotional access ends. A minimal keyed account/email eligibility record remains to prevent repeated free trials and preserve completion/award history and the shared UTC award cutoff; enrollment itself has no participant cap. Cloudflare recovery copies may remain for up to 30 days.
This does not delete local financial records or cloud backups, cancel a paid Google Play subscription or remove a separate lifetime invitation. Use the separate instructions below for those. To request deletion without the app, email archer.supportdesk@gmail.com from the enrolled Google email address with the subject Finance Universe First Flight 300 deletion. Support verifies account ownership before processing the request. Do not send passwords, Google tokens, recovery keys or financial records.
Shared Circles, email sharing and Firebase live updates (12 November 2026)
A member can leave a shared circle from the circle menu, and its owner can delete it for everyone, including after Premium ends. Leaving removes active account membership but keeps historical names and shared records so other members retain meaningful balances. Deleting a circle removes its active hosted circle/event/member records. Previously synchronized copies and personal expense entries on devices are not remotely erased. Person-connection directory records, other circles, the Firebase Authentication user and the latest change marker are separate.
For a full ownership-verified hosted-account request, email archer.supportdesk@gmail.com from the relevant Google account with the subject Finance Universe Circle and Firebase data deletion. Identify the request and relevant circle names if needed; do not send passwords, Google or Firebase tokens, service keys, receipt images, recovery keys or financial records. Support verifies account ownership and handles the applicable connection/account records, Firebase Authentication user and keyed change marker, explaining any shared-history or legal/fraud-prevention records that must remain. There is currently no automatic inactivity expiry for these Circle/Firebase records. Signing out, clearing app storage, deleting receipt-service data or deleting one complimentary-access account does not automatically erase these separate records. Firebase live sign-out stops that device's session; temporary custom-token expiry is not hosted-data deletion.
Sharing by email creates a separate connection containing a keyed fingerprint of the normalized friend's address; the plain address is kept on the sharer's device and in any separately enabled encrypted financial backup. To request removal or correction of a retained email fingerprint or connection, use the hosted-account support request above. Deleting a circle alone does not remove that fingerprint, and there is currently no in-app email-unshare control. Support verifies the relevant account and request before changing hosted connections.
Delete local records
In the app, open Settings → Clear Selected Financial Data. Choose Select All and All Time, then review and confirm the reset. This removes the selected local transactions, budgets, goals, recurring payments, reminders, categories, and rules. If you also want to remove app settings and other local files, clear Finance Universe storage in Android Settings or uninstall the app. An operating-system backup may restore app data if you later reinstall, so review your device's backup settings as well.
Delete optional cloud backups
For Google Drive backups, disconnect Finance Universe in the app, then open Google Drive Settings → Manage apps → Finance Universe → Delete hidden app data. You can also revoke Finance Universe access in your Google Account permissions. For iCloud backups, remove Finance Universe's stored app data from your iCloud storage settings. These encrypted files are held in your own cloud account; Finance Universe support cannot browse or delete them for you.
Delete receipt service data (updated October 20, 2026)
In Finance Universe 1.0.63 or later, open Settings > Delete Receipt Service Data. Review the explanation, choose Delete receipt data and verify the Google account used for scan allowances. The service immediately removes that account's scan-operation records and eligible reward records. Current-month free-scan counters and current-day reward counters and verified reward records remain until their UTC period ends and the following daily cleanup at 00:05 UTC, preventing repeated deletion from resetting scan allowances or granting another reward. This does not delete financial records, cancel a subscription or remove a lifetime invitation.
Without the app, email archer.supportdesk@gmail.com with the subject Finance Universe receipt data deletion from the Google account used for scans. Support verifies ownership before processing the same deletion. Do not send a password, identity token or receipt image.
Ordinary daily cleanup removes expired monthly/daily quota records and reward sessions, and scan-operation records older than 35 days. Under normal scheduled operation live receipt metadata remains for less than 36 days; cleanup delays may extend retention. Cloudflare recovery copies may retain deleted records for up to 30 additional days. Clearing app storage does not reset server allowances.
Request deletion of subscription records
If you used a Google Play subscription, email archer.supportdesk@gmail.com with the subject Finance Universe data deletion request. Include a Google Play order ID or other proof of purchase so we can verify the request. Do not send your password, recovery passphrase, emergency key, full card number, or financial records. We will request deletion of the corresponding RevenueCat subscription record where possible and explain any information that must be retained for tax, fraud prevention, or other legal obligations. Google Play retains its own purchase records under Google's policies; you can manage those through your Google Account.
Deleting data does not automatically cancel a subscription. To avoid a future charge, cancel it separately in Google Play → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions before the trial or current billing period ends.
For advertising-data controls, use the privacy choices offered in Finance Universe Settings when ads are enabled and review your Google Account ad privacy settings. Ad networks maintain their own records under their privacy policies.

Delete a complimentary-access account (updated October 17, 2026)
In Finance Universe, open Settings → Subscription & Billing → Delete complimentary account and confirm. This removes the live invitation and the keyed Google account-binding record, then signs you out. Your financial records, cloud backups and paid subscriptions are kept; use the separate steps above to delete or cancel those.
To request deletion without installing or signing in, email archer.supportdesk@gmail.com from your invited Google email address with the subject Finance Universe complimentary account deletion. We may verify ownership. Support will remove the invitation from both the live service and the owner’s private source list. Do not send your password, Google token, recovery keys, or financial records. Cloudflare recovery copies may retain deleted records for up to 30 days; purchase records required by law remain governed by Google Play and RevenueCat policies.
