I uploaded all my receipts from the month and then went to generate a report, but you have to create a report FIRST and then put in your receipts that you want on the report. Seems completely counterintuitive. It is NOT user friendly - you have to click around all over the place even to get back to your receipts if you’ve not put them into a specific report. Developers seem to be inexperienced. I’m on the hunt for an app that actually works for professionals.","authorHash":"cc22a47899e8b4062415873c94ed797e","rating":1,"offTopic":false},{"id":"cf24cebd-143e-429b-b61f-7292c37756ce","excerpt":"Smart Receipts: Expenses & Tax — Hopefully they get there — I found this not intuitive to use.

First of all I opened the app, hit the plus button & scanned my 30 receipts, THEN found no way to add them to a report. So then I tried making the report first and adding the receipts by **rescanning**(!) them. Unfortunately I accidentally hit something on about receipt 18 that pushed me out of the adding receipts process and so all those second scans seemed to be lost as well. Also, the pro version should use the daily exchange rate as a default, not make me hit “pro” on every receipt. The scan & read receipt option seems to struggle finding the white border of the receipt. I ended up adjusting for most scans unless they were tiny. I’m giving up because this is too annoying.","authorHash":"ba573ef1e4a3b21507b822af07ed47b3","rating":2,"offTopic":false},{"id":"7519a83c-fd3b-4fda-8a7e-64d591a6314a","excerpt":"Smart Receipts: Expenses & Tax — Was great once but not anymore — Tax time was easy at one point with this app. Everything is organized and it would take 30-60 minutes to get everything together rather than 3-6 hours.

I had a situation 2 years ago where I lost 4-5 months of receipts but gave them the benefit of the doubt because their support team responded so quickly. But this app has been more nightmare than blessing for the last year. Between every receipt I’ve scanned in the last 5 years being removed then uploaded again, missing receipts that get stuck in the unattached file spinning for weeks/months and now scanning receipts that say they’ve been scanned and are done but are not there. This has been 2 year’s of tax time nightmares. I’ve downloaded several similar apps since and honestly this is the best of all of them. But that’s only when it is working correctly. I’ve lost dozens of receipts that I can’t recover and have gotten rid or and dozens of hours trying to find and rescan receipts into other apps. I have given too much time and have lost too much information to continue on.","authorHash":"32b9352386996b8753e3f7b520dba6c2","rating":2,"offTopic":true},{"id":"83a2c548-2c4c-4b95-b6d8-9e57942d995d","excerpt":"Smart Receipts: Expenses & Tax — Scan is paid only — Was exciting to try this out.
