Your Invoice History, Stored Privately in Your Browser

What Is the Invoice History Feature?

InvoiNova now automatically saves a copy of every invoice you download as a PDF. These copies are stored locally in your browser so you can reload any previous invoice, make changes, and download a new version — without starting from scratch.

Up to 20 invoices are kept. When you exceed that limit, the oldest entry is removed automatically.

How It Works

After every successful PDF download, InvoiNova saves two things to your browser's localStorage:

• inv_history_index — a lightweight index with metadata (client name, invoice number, date, total amount).
• inv_{timestamp} — the full invoice data so it can be reloaded into the form exactly as you left it.

Nothing is ever sent to a server. There is no account, no sync, and no cloud backup — everything lives in your browser.

Loading a Previous Invoice

Click the clock icon in the navigation bar to open the Invoice History panel. You'll see a list of your saved invoices sorted by most recent. Click Load on any entry to populate the form with that invoice's data. The drawer closes automatically and you can edit and re-download as needed.

Deleting History

You have full control over your stored data:

• Delete a single invoice — click the Delete button next to any entry.
• Clear all history — click Clear history at the bottom of the panel. A second click is required to confirm.
• Via browser tools — open DevTools → Application → Local Storage and delete any keys starting with inv_.

Note that clearing your browser's site data or using private/incognito mode will also erase your invoice history.

Privacy by Design

Because all data is stored locally, InvoiNova cannot access your invoice history. There is no login, no account to breach, and no data to leak from a server. Your client names, amounts, and company details never leave your device.

This is the same approach InvoiNova has always taken with your company details — they are saved in your browser for convenience, not sent anywhere.

Limitations

• History is browser-specific — it won't appear on a different device or browser.
• Clearing browser data (cookies, site data) will delete your invoice history.
• Company logos are not saved in history to keep storage usage low.
