Support for the current browser build: local storage, exports, imports, journal posting, periods, reports, and privacy posture.

Common questions
Where is my Ledvo book stored?
In your browser profile’s local private filesystem for the Ledvo origin. https://www.ledvo.app and https://ledvo.app are separate browser origins, so use the canonical www.ledvo.app address consistently. Your book is not stored in a Ledvo cloud account because there is no Ledvo cloud account.
Does Ledvo download the accounting engine into OPFS?
No. The app loads the Heft WebAssembly engine as a normal web asset when you create, import, or open a local book. OPFS stores the ledger file for that browser profile; it does not store the engine.
What happens if I say no to persistent storage?
The app can still run, but your browser may be more willing to clear local storage under storage pressure. You can usually ask again from Ledvo Settings, or change the site’s storage permission in your browser settings.
Export your book before clearing browser data, switching browser profiles, switching browsers, wiping a device, or relying on Ledvo for anything important.
Which browsers work best?
Ledvo needs modern browser storage APIs. Recent Chromium-based browsers are the safest path today. Safari and Firefox support varies by version and platform.
If the app says your browser is unsupported, open it in a regular browser window instead of an in-app browser.
Is Ledvo free?
Yes. Ledvo has no paid tier today. The bundled Heft ledger engine is AGPL-3.0-or-later, and the Ledvo app repository remains private while the product is pre-release.
Does Ledvo give accounting advice?
No. Ledvo is software. It is not accounting, tax, legal, audit, or financial advice.
Can I use Ledvo for a real business?
Use judgment. Ledvo is built around real double-entry mechanics, but the current product is not a certified compliance system and has no hosted multi-user controls. For serious business use, involve a qualified accountant, keep exports, and validate your jurisdiction’s requirements.
Why can’t I post into a closed period?
That is intentional. Once a period is soft-closed, closed, or locked, Ledvo blocks postings into it. If you need to correct a closed period, use the period workflow and reversing/correction entries instead of editing posted history.
Can I edit a posted journal entry?
Posted entries should not be edited directly. Ledvo uses voids and reversals so the audit trail remains understandable.
How do I move my book to another browser or device?
Use the export/import flow:
- Open Settings.
- Export your book as JSON.
- Move that JSON file to the other device yourself.
- Open Ledvo in the other browser profile at
https://www.ledvo.app. - Import the JSON snapshot before setting up a new book there.
I cleared browser data. Can you recover my book?
No. Ledvo does not have a backend copy. If you cleared the local book and do not have an export, there is nothing for us to restore.
