1. Start here

Receipt Tracker: Expenses stores receipts inside reports and supports manual entry, receipt images, PDF and CSV output, per-report ZIP backup, and optional vehicle records.

4. Attach or photograph the receipt.
5. Verify the saved amount, taxes, date, category, currency, and image.
6. Create a Backup ZIP after entering important data.

2. Reports

Every receipt belongs to one report. A report can represent a tax year, business, client, vehicle, trip, household, reimbursement period, or project.

1. Select Create Report or the add control.
2. Enter a report name.

• Duplicate: create a separate report copy.
• PDF or CSV: create readable or tabular output.
• Backup ZIP: create a portable restorable copy with receipt data and images.

3. Receipts

Add or edit a receipt

1. Open the destination report and select Add Receipt.
2. Enter the merchant, price, and currency.

7. Attach an image and verify every field before saving.

Receipt images

• Take Photo opens the camera for a new image.
• Upload Existing Image selects an image from the device.
• The image editor can crop, reposition, resize, rotate, reset, and save edits.
• Full-Page Image requests full-page treatment in supported report output.

4. Find and organize

• Search by merchant, comments, category, amount, or date.
• Filter by date range, category, reimbursement status, and minimum or maximum price.
• Edit, duplicate, move, or delete an individual receipt.
• Use bulk actions to update reimbursement status, assign a category, or delete selected receipts.
• Use Other when a custom category is needed.

5. PDF, CSV, and Backup ZIP

Export or share

1. Open the report or its report-card actions.
2. Choose the desired PDF, CSV, or Backup ZIP action.
3. Keep the app open while generation is in progress.
4. Choose a destination from Android's save or share interface.

Restore from ZIP

1. Open Settings and choose Restore From ZIP.
2. Select a Backup ZIP created by Receipt Tracker.
3. Wait for validation and import to finish.
4. Review the imported report, receipt fields, and images.

6. Recovery and deletion

Receipt Tracker: Expenses does not include Recently Deleted. Deleting a receipt removes it from local storage, and deleting a report removes its receipts. Recovery requires a suitable Backup ZIP exported before deletion.

Receipt Tracker: Expenses allows up to 25 saved receipts across all reports. A ZIP restore must fit within the remaining capacity.

7. Settings

• Language, theme, default currency, and export image quality.
• Report columns, including category, reimbursement status, and comments where available.
• Vehicle maintenance fields.
• Privacy, data storage, camera and photos, terms, support, website, and app information.
• Restore From ZIP.

8. Privacy and data handling

Receipt records remain local unless the user exports, shares, restores, or voluntarily sends information to support. Receipt Tracker: Expenses does not serve advertising.

9. Troubleshooting
