Troubleshooting
My entries disappeared. What happened?
If your entries are missing:
- Ensure you didn’t accidentally delete them
- Check if you restored your device from a backup that didn’t include Moïchi data
- Verify you’re using the same device where you created the entries (data is stored locally)
Unfortunately, if data is lost and you don’t have a backup, we cannot recover it because all data is stored locally on your device.
The app crashes or freezes. What should I do?
- Force Quit: Swipe up from the bottom (or double-tap Home button) and swipe Moïchi away

My Premium purchase didn’t unlock. What should I do?
