Locally deleting and restoring a project

Locally deleting a project allows you to free up space on your device and to keep only projects that you are currently working on. Information on your project is saved on our server, which allows you to restore the project at any time. 

Please note

that locally deleting a project permanently removes it from your device. Also, if you later wish to restore it, make sure all of the information is synchronized before deleting the project.

Locally deleting a project

1. Please show the main menu where all projects are shown. Tap on the < ... > icon of the project you want to delete.
2. Select < Delete locally >.
3. Confirm you want to delete. Tap on either < Delete locally > (Android) or < Delete > (iOS). Wait for the deletion to complete before closing Finalcad.
4. If you do not want to delete the project, you can cancel. Tap on < Cancel > (Android) or < Discard > (iOS).
