Get in touch

Email fabricledgersupport@gmail.com for app support or privacy questions.

Include your device model, iOS or iPadOS version, app version if available, and the steps that led to the problem. A screenshot can help explain what you see.

Before sending a screenshot or attachment, check which personal details it contains. A complete ledger backup can include all your records, photos and PDFs.

Make a complete backup

  1. Open Menu, then Settings & backup.
  2. Tap Export complete backup and choose a location in Files.
  3. Wait for the saved confirmation, then check the file in Files. A complete backup includes your records, photos and PDFs.

Export a backup regularly and keep a copy somewhere you can access if you replace or lose your device.

Restore a backup or move to another device

  1. On the original device, export a complete backup and copy the file to a location you can open on the receiving device.
  2. On the receiving device, open Menu, then Settings & backup.
  3. Tap Preview backup to restore and select the complete backup file.
  4. Read the restore preview and tap Restore backup when you are ready.

Restoring replaces the ledger on the receiving device. Fabric Ledger saves a recovery snapshot of the previous ledger when a restore succeeds. Keep a separate complete backup before moving your ledger or removing the app.

To recover a previous ledger, open Settings & backup and check Before-restore snapshots.

Record materials and costs

Open a project and tap Record materials & costs. Choose the fabrics or supplies you used and enter their quantities. Saving material use updates the remaining stock and stores the material cost recorded at that time.

You can return to a project to add later material use or other costs. Editing a project's name, notes, tutorial or pattern links keeps its saved material-use history.

Find a project's tutorial and patterns

Open a project and tap Edit details to save a Tutorial link or select sewing patterns. After saving, tap Open tutorial to revisit your instructions, or tap a pattern under Patterns used to open it.

To save a pattern you drafted, tap Add a new pattern in the project details. Add photos or a PDF and save it to link it to that project.

Open a saved pattern to see Projects using this pattern, or tap Start a project with this pattern to use it for another make.
