Reviews for Smart Receipts: Expenses Scan

← Back to Smart Receipts: Expenses Scan

Very easy to use and understand. Met all my needs for an easy to use, expense report generator. I wish there were basic tools to use in the camera function (crop, brighten, etc.). Other than that, it is a great program. Been using it for over a year now. UPDATE: Capturing Receipts made much more user friendly. Use of native camera app and the addition of a simple crop tool took my rating to 5-stars. Love it!

been using for years, barely subbed for PLUS experience, thought I'd say a few words. I don't keep track of anything for a business or taxes, just a regular guy needing something more than a notepad to keep track of what I spend out of a wad of cash in my wallet. this helps my wife who keeps our family on track with our budget. I can make a report titled "300 bucks" and note when and where I pulled the cash, how much I spent where and log receipts. super easy and Intuitive. 5 stars!

Good app. Just don't loose your password or have to change phones or can't remember how you subscribed. They can't seem to help me reset a password or figure out how I initially got the subscription but they can automatically keep charging me every year and send a receipt to my email address. Support comes via a lot of emails with if ands and buts, however no real solutions. No phone support. As a senior it's a bit much. Can't upload, log in, download reports, just keep asking for another subscription. I've been communicating with a Steven Haus, I have sent him my receipts. Who resets the passwords? You or Google? I can't seem to get that done either. When I try to configure automatic backups it's asking me to subscribe again.

One way to organize receipts. I purchased the pro version and need to warn others. It is extremely easy to lose all your input data. This program overwrites it completely. And there is no way to make a report from a smr file if downloaded to a PC. Yes, there is a way to back up but that has to be done manually. UPDATE - After watching more tutorials, I am revising my rating upwards from before. There is a learning curve with this app.

I tried to find the ad free app to pay the download charge to avoid ads, but I could not find it. I went with the free version with the ads and found the ads were at the bottom of the application and not distracting or in the way. This app is great for keeping track of receipts. I do not mind writing in the amounts or choosing from the drop-down menu once the initial store or Merchant is entered in. I prefer the photo option to make copies of receipts over the inferior scanning methods.

Love this app. I'm self employed so I have a ton of cost to keep up with. I haven't really tried anything else to track cost and receipts but I guess that bc I got the right one to start with. Really easy, just snap a pic of your receipt, it automatically take that info into a form with company, date, cost etc. I always look over it take make sure it picked up the right info but it's rarely wrong. And it's only a couple $ a year. No complaints from me

I travel extensively for my job. I often do not have internet. This program is one of the few I can make entries without an internet connection. It is highly customisable. I used to use Neat Receipts but am dropping that in favour of Smart Receipts. My only complaint is I wish it had a desktop version. Otherwise it is close to perfect. I would like to see a search function. It would be a perfect app if I could search by category, payment method, or vendor.

A very good app for recording, categorizing and reporting expenses. The Usage Guide is well-written and helpful for the majority of the app. The expense portion of the report is somewhat customizable. It would be even better if the mileage expense table was also customizable. Unfortunately, as it is, I cannot eliminate the Currency column. The currency is defined in the settings and seems redundant to show it in the mileage expense table. I look forward to future improvements.

I used to love this program. My company has used it for years. recently, huge changes were made and it feels like a completely different application. it is much more difficult to use, with ridiculous receipt scanning automation that almost never works right and causes images to be skewed. Also, constant reminders to purchase additional features that I don't want. My company will be switching to a different app as soon as I find something reminiscent of the way smart receipts used to work.

Not an app for the common person, and not what I was looking for. The feature for physical scan to digital data is paid, per receipt scanned. Free accounts can save a receipt photo, manually input the total amount, and place the expense in a category. It is maybe 5% better than just starting a spreadsheet (because it looks a little nicer). If you essentially just need to be able to attach photos to your spreadsheet, this free app will be what you're looking for.

I really like this app. I use it everyday for my expenses. I've tried a lot of receipt apps. This one works better than the others. I would like to see a break down of amount spent in each category without generating a report. It would be great to click on "other" in pie chart to see it's breakdown. I've talked to support before and they made it sound like they would implement this ability to click other. Farming has a lot of important categories that I would like to review quickly.

Update: With help from the developer I figured out how to add categories!!! 5 STARS!! Does exactly what I want. I like this, it is simple to use. The only thing I wish it had was more categories. I am not using this for business, just a Mom trying to reduce paperword and track expenses and taxes. Outside of the "meals" and "gasoline" I wish there were things like groceries and items. Or give us the option to name our own categories. Otherwise it is a pretty decent app.

Update -pro version is better than the Free version but still needs some work. Please put the date back with the name where the actual photo is. The old version used to have the name that I would input along with the date of the receipt. The new version only has the name. PLEASE FIX ALL THE COMPLAINTS AND BECOME A GOOD APP LIKE YOU USED TO BE. Asked for help from them and got the run around. Could not explain to me why the major cost increase. Could not locate my account of over 10 years.

This new update is terrible! The user interface had been ruined and is no longer intuitive. The organizing of all entries from oldest to newest instead of newest to oldest makes no sense. They also removed the breakdown of how much was spent by each payment method in the category expense breakdown. I actually referred getting the update. Is it possible to go back to the last version. It all worked so well

Was a great app... Since the last major update, there's a major glitch. If you accidentally enter a duplicate receipt, when you go in to edit and delete the duplication it deletes it from the app, however, it does not delete it from the PDF report which is very troublesome and now you have to audit every report and make corrections to the totals. It's very labor intensive. It's not a good thing since the subscription was raised to the yearly price. Need an update to fix the glitch, please!!!

Update 10/2025: Absolutely zero reason to not allow offline backup of receipts for transfer to new phone...terrible under this new owner Have used this app for many years and loved it. With the last update however, I have lost the ability to manually backup my file to OneDrive. This was a huge benefit for me since I didn't have to login to another account and could control where I was saving my financial data backup. Might have to start looking for an alternative...

7/12/25 0 stars I opened the app today to add receipts and everything I've ever entered is gone from the app. Everything. Fortunately I have the back ups. But I have to start over from scratch, if I want to add receipts now. I also have to pay over a hundred dollars a year. This is a major blow and I will not be rewarding Smart Receipts by purchasing a subscription. 1/8/21 5 stars I'm still using this app years later and I am so happy with it! I highly recommend Smart Receipts.

The first app in history to actually get severely crappier, while imposing a new fee structure.. Why did they ruin a beautiful thing. new update, every photograph, you now have to wait patiently for it to scan, and then it makes a mess of the scan, then you have to go into the picture and uncrop it. such a waste of time. I would gladly give you your subscription fee if you would roll it back to the old version which was perfect then you can have your $12 a month gladly

This used to be a good app... I could spend a few bucks buying automatic scans; it worked well for me because I travel 8 to 12 times per year. That option went away and was replaced with a pro option. To get the same convenience as the previous version, I have to spend $11/month. Additionally, now, in the free version, you're subjected to ads before you can share your expense reports. 2-Stars may be too high. I am currently looking for a new expense app.

Free plan only allows manual entries. AI scans cost $11 per month or $95 per year after a 3 day free trial. I can't even trial the scanner to see if they auto itemized purchases. I would've watched ads to access a few free scans at a time, but I'm not managing a corporation's budget to manage finances. I think I'll stick to Saldo Apps for my personal finances for now, with 10 free scans at a time. Thanks anyway.
