6. Troubleshooting

Can't Login

  • Email and password: Make sure you're using the exact email you registered with. Passwords are case-sensitive.
  • Internet connection: Ensure your phone has active WiFi or mobile data.
  • Account not verified: Check your email for the verification code and complete verification.
  • Account issues: Contact your consultant to check your account status.

OTP Code Not Received

  1. Wait 2 minutes — email delivery can take a moment
  2. Check spam/junk folder — look for email from "FirmUp" or "noreply@firmup.app"
  3. Check the email address — make sure you're checking the right inbox
  4. Code expired — OTP codes expire after 10 minutes, start the process again

App is Slow or Not Loading Data

  • Check your internet connection — try switching between WiFi and mobile data
  • Pull down to refresh on any list screen
  • Close the app completely and reopen it
  • Clear app cache: Settings → Apps → FirmUp Accounting Client → Storage → Clear Cache
Note: Clearing cache does NOT delete your account or data.

App Crashes or Freezes

  • Update the app from Google Play Store
  • Restart your phone
  • Reinstall the app (your data is stored on the server, not your phone)

Files Won't Upload

  • File size: Maximum is 10 MB — compress or split larger files
  • File type: Only PDF, DOC, DOCX, ZIP, RAR, JPG, PNG are supported
  • Internet: Use WiFi for large files

Can't See Projects or Accounting Data

This usually means your consultant hasn't set things up yet. Contact them and ask to:

  • Create a project for you (for Projects section)
  • Set up your accounting entity (for Accounting section)
  • Assign the correct permissions to your account

Forgot Password

Currently, password reset must be done through your consultant. Contact them to reset your password.

Coming in a future update: Self-service password reset via email.
