Ratings and reviews

Marking items even if the receipt contains just one item? This new rule does not make any sense. Especially if the app provides no tools for that.

The app has potential but it's quite mediocre / more time consuming than similars in the market. Lacks basic and useful tools like editing submissions (if anything is wrong, you have to resubmit from scratch) or translation tools (like "lenses"), no foreign currency/conversion options, OCR is not reliable; for the human part, you can expect slow processing times (a week in average), inconsistency regarding the interpretation and application of their own policies and lack of accountability.

This app, if well used, simplifies the cost tracking process. It boils it down to the essential and lowers the pain of filling in endless input fields thanks to its integrated receipt scanner with a decent auto-fill function. Recommend its use.
