Frequently Asked Questions
Is Larpy a real bank?
No. Larpy is a fiction and entertainment app for live-action role-play, films, theatre, and creative work. It simulates the interface of a finance app using entirely invented data. It does not connect to bank accounts, process transactions, or provide any banking service. Every balance and transaction in the app is invented by the person using it.
Why don't my balances match my real bank?
Because nothing in Larpy is real. Larpy never connects to your bank — it has no ability to — so the balances you see are the fictional numbers you (or the app's defaults) made up. If you need your real balance, check your real banking app.
Are the stock and crypto prices real?
Yes — market prices are the only real information in the app. Larpy fetches publicly available prices from CoinGecko, Finnhub, and Yahoo Finance so that a story set today moves with today's market. Any "portfolio" or "holdings" shown are invented, hold no value, and do not represent actual investments.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Everything you enter is stored locally on your device and is never sent to us — we have no servers, no analytics, and no account system. The app's only network activity is fetching public market prices from CoinGecko, Finnhub, and Yahoo Finance; those requests contain no personal data. Deleting the app permanently removes all of your data. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Can I use Larpy to make someone believe I have money?
No. Larpy is for fiction and performance, and everyone who sees its contents must know they are invented. Using Larpy — or any screenshot, recording, or account detail taken from it — to make another person believe the money is real is prohibited by our Terms of Service, and in most countries it is fraud. This includes lenders, landlords, employers, merchants, dates, and business partners. We will not support that use.
How do I change my balance?
Open the sidebar (hamburger menu), go to Settings, and tap on the account you'd like to edit (Checking or Platinum Card). You can set any fictional balance up to $15,000 on the free plan.
How do I change the currency?
Go to Settings and tap "Currency Symbol." You can choose from several options including $, €, £, ¥, and more.
Can I reset the app?
Yes. Go to Settings and tap "Replay Onboarding." This will reset the app to its initial state, allowing you to set up a new profile with fresh fictional balances.
What is Larpy Pro?
Larpy Pro is an optional upgrade that unlocks unlimited fictional account balances (above the $15,000 free plan cap), the crypto portfolio prop, and additional customization features. It's purchased through Apple's App Store.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Larpy Pro subscriptions are managed through the App Store. Open Settings on your iPhone → tap your name → Subscriptions → Larpy → Cancel Subscription.
I found a bug. How do I report it?
Please send an email to support@larpy.app with a description of the issue and, if possible, a screenshot. We'll investigate and fix it as soon as possible.
