Frequently Asked Questions
Does the app require an account?
No. Generator Power Advisor does not require an account, sign-in, or personal profile. Everything works without one.
Where is my information stored?
Your generators, appliance selections, preferences, and records are stored locally on your own device using standard browser or application storage. There is no server that collects this information.
Does the app work offline?
Yes. The core calculator, generator database, and guidance work offline. Optional features that fetch live data — elevation, weather, and ZIP-code lookup — need an internet connection, but you can enter those values manually instead.
Why does the app request location?
Only when you tap a location feature — for example, to estimate your elevation (which affects a generator's output) or to retrieve tonight's forecast low temperature. Location is used only to complete that request and is not tracked in the background.
Can I use the app without sharing my location?
Yes. If you decline location, the app keeps working — you can type an elevation in feet or enter a ZIP code for the forecast. No feature is locked behind location access except the automatic lookups themselves.
How do I remove locally stored information?
Within the app you can delete individual custom generators, delete real-world test entries, and reset the Fuel Tracker. To remove all locally stored data, clear the app's or browser's site/application storage, or uninstall the app.
Are the load calculations a guarantee that a generator or appliance combination is safe?
No. Generator Power Advisor provides estimates and planning guidance, not a guarantee and not a substitute for your generator's manual, appliance documentation, a licensed electrician, the manufacturer's specifications, or applicable electrical and safety requirements. Real-world output varies with temperature, elevation, fuel, condition, and load. Always follow your equipment documentation and local safety requirements, and never operate a generator in an enclosed or unsafe space — carbon monoxide is odorless and deadly.
