Photograph a receipt and it pulls out the date, the shop and the amount
and stacks them in a table. It totals each month for you. For Android phones.
The photo never leaves the phone
Reading the text happens on the phone, start to finish. The photo is sent nowhere.
No account, no photo server, no ads.
The table stays on your phone. When you need it, export it as a spreadsheet (csv)
and hand it straight to your accounting software.
Getting ready…
Open this page on the phone and press the button.
If you download it on a computer you will have to move the file across.
Said plainly first — this is the first build
It passes all 60 of our own checks, but it has not yet been tried
widely on real paper receipts. Every shop prints a different shape, so there will be
receipts it reads badly.
What it will not do is invent a number. If a photo is too
blurred to read, it writes “missing” rather than 0, and marks the row orange with
“please check”. The total adds up only what it actually read, and says underneath
how many receipts it left out.
If you find a receipt it reads badly, send us the
photo and we will add a rule for that shape.
One thing to say in advance
When you install it, the permission list Android shows you
includes “internet”. That is put there by default by the toolkit the app is built
with, and we do not use it — no photo and no text is sent anywhere. In case that
does not sit well with you, the next build will have that permission removed altogether.
Once you have it
Tap the downloaded file (Valuestools Receipt Wallet.apk).
If it asks about "apps from unknown sources", choose allow.
— that is because it is not on the Play Store yet.
Press Photograph a receipt. You can also pick several at once from the gallery.
A row appears in the table. Anything it could not read is orange — tap that row and
type it in. The total updates the moment you do.
The table button at the top right gives you the spreadsheet to export.
Anything it reads badly, you can correct by hand on
the row itself — and if you send us the photo we will add a rule for that shape.
What this app promises
It does not invent what it could not read. From a blurred photo it makes up no
value at all, and it does not mistake a business-registration number for an amount.
The total never goes quietly wrong. It adds only what was read, and counts the
unread and the "please check" ones separately underneath.
Corrections count immediately. An amount you type by hand goes into the total at
once and the orange mark disappears.
0.0001 seconds to pull one receipt apart; 0.16 seconds to stack 1,000 and produce the
totals, the monthly figures and the table. Measured, not claimed.
When people use it
Receipts collected in an envelope and sorted out at the end of the month.
Travel or event expenses that must be handed in receipt by receipt — export the table
and attach it as it is.
A small shop wanting to see one month of spending at a glance.
Korean and English, both
It follows the language your phone is set to.

says “cannot install”, tell us and we will make a build for it.
