How do I add a receipt to an expense?
Last updated
In the expense, tap Receipt, then Take a photo, Choose a photo, or Choose a file for a PDF. The receipt is uploaded to the group and shows on the expense for everyone in it. With no connection you can still save the expense: the receipt waits on your phone and is attached once you are back online, as Saving a receipt offline says.
You can also start from the receipt: in Photos, Files or Mail, share a photo, screenshot or PDF to Evensies, and a new expense opens with it attached, in the group you last saved an expense in. You can change the group at the top of the form, and when Evensies can't tell which group, it asks first.
On an iPhone with Apple Intelligence on, running iOS 27 or later, the row reads Scan a receipt, and the phone itself reads the receipt you add and fills in the shop, the total and the lines for you to check: what the phone reads is sent nowhere to be read, and it works with no connection. An iPad with Apple Intelligence on, running iPadOS 27 or later, does the same, as Reading a receipt explains.
On other phones and iPads, when receipt scanning is on, the row reads Scan a receipt, and Evensies reads the receipt you add and fills in the shop, the total and the lines for you to check, up to 40 receipts a day. When receipt scanning is off there, the receipt is attached as it is, and you type the expense yourself.
Tap a receipt on an expense to open it full screen, to zoom in or share it. An expense has one receipt; choosing another replaces it. Only the group's members can open it, and receipts are never used to train anything. A receipt you chose but never saved with an expense is deleted from our server after about a day. A demo group stays on your phone, so its receipts are not kept.
