Where Does Simplifi Store Budgets and Data?
Simplifi keeps budgets in your Quicken account cloud, with phones holding session plus cache. Sign in restores everything.
Last updated
Simplifi is a cloud budget with phone editing. Accounts, spending plans, and watchlists live in your Quicken account. The app caches recent activity for offline entry. Imports and bill detection run server side.
Same Quicken ID means same budget. Exact cache folders shift with releases, so check App info for the installed package label before digging. For moves, sign in and let sync finish. A second login shows an empty trial that panics people needlessly.

Budgets follow your Quicken ID login. The phone holds working copies plus cache. Check App info for the package label when browsing storage.
On My iPhone/Simplifi
Same account sync model as Android. Spending plans and watchlists restore on login. Reinstalls never touch the cloud ledger.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Simplifi to a new phone?
Install Simplifi on the new phone and sign in with the same Quicken ID. Budgets, accounts, and watchlists download from your account. Bank links refresh server side. Check the spending plan looks complete before wiping the old phone.
How do I export Simplifi transactions?
Use the web app reports to export transactions for archiving. The phone cache holds no master ledger. Recurring bills and savings goals sync through the account, so exports are snapshots for spreadsheets rather than restorable backups.
