Need a hand?
Most answers are below. Still stuck? Email julianjoseph1501@gmail.com and you’ll hear back within a couple of days. Every Iyal app works offline with no account, so there is nothing to log into and nothing to recover.
Across all apps
Questions that come up everywhere
Do I need an account?
No. There is no account system in any Iyal app. You open the app and start using it. Nothing to sign up for, nothing to confirm, nothing to forget the password to.
I got a new phone. How do I move my data?
Because your data never leaves your device, there is no cloud copy to sign into. Use Apple’s own transfer instead: an encrypted iPhone backup (iCloud Backup or a Finder backup on a Mac) includes Iyal app data, and restoring that backup onto the new phone brings it across.
If you set the new phone up as new rather than from a backup, the data stays on the old device. Per-app export is on the roadmap.
How do the Pro unlocks work?
Every paid feature in an Iyal app is a one-time purchase — never a subscription. Buy it once and it stays unlocked. Moved to a new device or reinstalled? Use Settings → Restore purchase with the same Apple ID.
Notifications aren’t arriving.
Three things to check, in order: notifications are enabled inside the app under Settings → Notifications; the app is allowed to notify you in iOS Settings → Notifications; and a Focus mode or Do Not Disturb schedule isn’t silencing it.
Is there an Android version?
Not yet. Iyal apps are iPhone-only today, and we would rather ship one platform properly than two badly. If Android happens, it will be announced on the mailing list first.
How do I report a bug or request a feature?
Email julianjoseph1501@gmail.com with the app name, your iOS version and what you were doing when it went wrong. A screenshot helps enormously. Feature ideas are genuinely welcome — a lot of what ships comes from these emails.
IyalPace
Monthly money tracking with a spending runway. App page · Privacy details
Logging a transaction
Tap the + button to add income or an expense. Enter the amount, pick a category and date, and add an optional note. Your monthly overview updates instantly.
What is the spending runway?
It is a single line showing the trajectory of your balance through the month. The solid part is what you have logged; the dashed part is the projection to month end, based on your fixed costs and your spending pace so far.
The forecast needs a few days of entries before it appears — until then the app tells you it is still learning your pattern. It tightens with every entry.
Fixed costs and income
Set your monthly income and recurring fixed costs once, and the runway accounts for them automatically. Use the month selector at the top of the overview to review or edit past months.
Reminders
Turn on the optional end-of-day “did you log?” prompt in Settings → Notifications. It is off by default and there is only ever one per day.
Does it connect to my bank?
No, deliberately. IyalPace never asks for banking credentials and uses no aggregator service. You enter what matters, which is also why there is nothing sensitive for anyone to intercept.
Clearing your data
Settings → Reset all data wipes everything on the device. Uninstalling removes it too. There is no server-side copy to worry about.
IyalPace Pro
A one-time unlock, no subscription, for six-month trends, spending anomaly detection, savings trajectory and custom categories in charts. Restore it any time via Settings → Restore purchase.
IyalSip
Daily hydration tracking with a rising fill gauge. App page · Privacy details
Logging your water
From the Overview tab, tap +250 ml, +500 ml, or Custom for any amount. The gauge fills as you go. Tap Reset today to clear the current day.
Setting your daily goal
Set it on first launch, or change it later in Settings. Pick a preset between 1.5 and 3.0 L, or enter a custom amount in millilitres, then Save. Changing the goal does not alter your history.
Reminders
Enable gentle daily reminders in Settings → Notifications. They are off by default, and there is no escalating nag if you ignore one.
Trends, themes and languages
The Trends tab shows your average, best day, total and a daily chart. Choose Light, Dark or System in Settings → Appearance. IyalSip is available in 12 languages and follows your device language automatically.
Does it sync with Apple Health?
Not yet. Health sync is on the roadmap and will be strictly opt-in when it arrives — the data would move between the app and Apple Health on your device, never through a server of ours.
Clearing your data
Settings → Clear all data wipes everything on the device, or uninstall the app to remove it entirely.
IyalSip Pro
A one-time unlock, no subscription, for 30/60/90-day trends, advanced insights (streaks, weekly averages, goal-met rate, hydration score) and day-of-week patterns. Restore it any time via Settings → Restore purchase.
IyalGarage
On the App StoreVehicle running costs with a year-end projection. App page · Privacy details
Where do I get it?
IyalGarage is live and free on the App Store. There is an optional one-time Pro unlock — no subscription.
Logging an expense
Amount, category, done — a keypad-first entry sheet built for standing at a pump. Add the odometer reading and litres or kWh if you want the consumption analytics; skip them if you don’t.
Recurring costs
Define insurance, road tax and loan payments once with their frequency, and they post themselves. They are included in the year-end projection whether or not they have been paid yet.
How the year-end projection works
It adds three things: what you have logged so far, the recurring costs still due this year, and an estimated day-to-day figure based on your spend per day multiplied by the days remaining. The overview breaks the number into those parts so you can see where it comes from.
Which fuel types are supported?
Petrol, diesel, hybrid and fully electric. EV charging is logged in kWh with cost per kWh, and consumption is reported in the unit that suits the vehicle.
Does it track my location?
No. The app requests no location permission at all. Odometer readings are numbers you type in, and no trip is ever recorded.
Can I track more than one vehicle?
Yes. Each vehicle keeps its own costs, projection and trends, and you switch between them from the vehicle selector at the top of the overview.
Still stuck
Talk to a human.
Iyal is a small operation, so support goes straight to the person who wrote the app. Include the app name, your iOS version and what you were doing when it went wrong — a screenshot helps enormously.
Typical reply time: a couple of days. Apps: IyalPace, IyalSip and IyalGarage by Iyal.
