What is OWEVIA?
OWEVIA is an AI-powered app that helps you identify potential money-recovery opportunities — such as refunds, price drops, duplicate charges, unused credits, and subscription issues — based on information you authorize OWEVIA to access.
How does OWEVIA find potential recovery opportunities?
When you connect Gmail and run Find My Money, OWEVIA scans authorized purchase-related messages on the server, extracts relevant purchase details, and analyzes them for supported recovery patterns. Results appear as opportunities you can review in the app.
Why does OWEVIA need Gmail?
Many receipts, order confirmations, refund notices, subscription renewals, and warranty emails arrive in Gmail. Read-only Gmail access lets OWEVIA analyze those messages to identify potential recovery opportunities you might otherwise miss.
Does OWEVIA need my Gmail password?
No. OWEVIA never asks for your Gmail password. Gmail is connected through Google OAuth with read-only access (gmail.readonly).
What can OWEVIA access?
With your authorization, OWEVIA can read relevant Gmail messages for scanning. OWEVIA stores message metadata, subject, snippet, and up to about 4,000 characters of body text per relevant message, plus parsed purchase and recovery data derived from those messages. OWEVIA cannot send, delete, or modify your email.
Can OWEVIA automatically request a refund?
No. OWEVIA does not automatically submit recovery requests, disputes, or cancellations on your behalf. OWEVIA may help you understand an opportunity, organize documentation, and draft suggested communications for you to review and send.
Does OWEVIA guarantee that I will get money back?
No. OWEVIA identifies potential opportunities and estimated amounts. Merchants, banks, and other third parties make the final decision. Amounts shown as "Money Found" or similar are potential values, not guaranteed recoveries.
What happens if OWEVIA finds nothing?
An empty Home screen means OWEVIA did not identify an evidenced opportunity from the mail scanned — not necessarily that your scan failed. You can connect Gmail, run another scan when your plan allows, and review Activity for scan status.
How does Ask OWEVIA work?
Ask OWEVIA answers questions about your stored OWEVIA recovery records. When AI processing is enabled on the server, your question and a summary of your stored opportunities may be sent to OpenAI. If AI is unavailable, OWEVIA answers from your stored records only.
Does Ask OWEVIA see my entire mailbox?
No. Ask OWEVIA uses your stored recovery opportunities and Gmail connection metadata — not your full mailbox. It cannot answer questions about emails OWEVIA has not imported and analyzed.
How do I disconnect Gmail?
Go to Settings → Privacy & security → Disconnect Gmail, or manage your connection from Connected accounts. Disconnecting revokes OAuth access and stops future scans. Previously imported data remains until you delete imported data or delete your account.
How do I delete imported data?
Go to Legal & Support → Delete My Data. This permanently removes stored messages, purchases, recovery opportunities, scan history, activity events, and Ask OWEVIA chat history from OWEVIA servers. Your account and Gmail connection stay unless you remove those separately.
How do I delete my OWEVIA account?
Go to Legal & Support → Delete My Account. This permanently deletes your OWEVIA account and associated server-side data, including Gmail tokens, imported data, recoveries, activity, and chat history. This cannot be undone.
How do subscriptions work?
OWEVIA offers Free, Plus, and Pro plans. Paid plans unlock additional features such as more frequent scans and higher Ask OWEVIA limits. When in-app purchases are live, billing is handled by Apple or Google according to the plan you select.
What happens when my subscription expires?
When a paid subscription expires, your account returns to the limits of your current plan (typically Free). Your stored data remains unless you delete it. You can resubscribe through the app when billing is available.
How can I contact support?
Email OWEVIA Support at OWEVIAadmin@gmail.com. Include your account email and a description of the issue.
