MoneyCoach is all about choice and unlike other apps, we do not force you into having the same options across your devices. All your data like accounts, transactions, goals, budgets ect. will be synced across your iPhone, iPad and Mac, but you can have each one of those apps display different periods and accounts in the Overview cards. For example, the iPhone app can show you your Personal Accounts with a monthly period, the iPad can show you your Savings Accounts with a weekly period while the Mac can show you your Business Accounts with another period.
If you want all your devices to have the same data displayed in the Overview cards, take a look at how to customize your payday and how to show or hide your accounts.
When you reinstall the app, but already have data stored on your iCloud and you want to restore from it, it is important that you skip the onboarding process by tapping the "Already Completed?" button you will see in the screen. Then you can go into Settings / Data & Sync and select the "Individual" option for syncing. Wait and all your data will be restored back.
