WHAT DO THE USERS SAY?

"Really works great to keep on top of expenses. Saves you from having to scan a bunch of receipts at the end of a trip. Love the Dropbox integration."

"Fantastic for a quick snap of the document, name it and its instantly backed up online. Both Dropbox and Drive work well. No more full files of receipts and no more worries if you cant find a guarantee! Love it!"

"Wonderfully useful and amazingly easy to operate. I use it for copies of all current household documents as well as receipts. Absolutely invaluable. I would miss this more than any app on my iPad."

"This app is fast, it finds your receipt and crops out the background, uploads it to DropBox, and to repeat, its so blazingly fast I take a picture of my receipt before I leave the Starbucks register then I hand the barista my receipt back. This app is what Lemon used to be before they turned that app into bloatware you dont need. Side note: Ive had an iPhone since Day 1, and this is the first review Ive ever written. That is how much Im man crushing on the dedicated simplicity of this app."

Pros and cons of Piikki: Receipt Scanner app for iPhone and iPad

Piikki: Receipt Scanner app good for

As Someone who is inherently disorganized I find this app incredibly valuable in keeping track of my expenses.

update 2016.09.27: Im back to update my review, 2 years after my last review, to thank the developers for keeping it alive! I see here some frustrated reviews for lack of support and features, which I can understand. But for me, as a veteran user of Piikki for many years, and even at some point looked for an alternative because Piikki development was stopped (but thankfully revived!) I have yet to find a better replacement, and the app still serves me well! (and NO, I am not related or paid to write this review, this is my honest opinion, and I did try plenty alternatives). If you really care why, I will gladly explain: it scans the receipt and has options to crop and fine tune sharpness, it has custom options to setup the file size and file type (.jpg or .PDF), it allows adjusting the files date! (very convenient if you have to search for a receipt amongst hundreds!) it has multiple file naming template options! - so you dont have to retype a filename, everytime you scan a receipt (a huge time saver for organised people, who uses specific filenames for receipts!) it has custom categories (another huge time saver, if you like to sort your receipts by category, which later can be used in graph reports!) And what if you need to separate receipts by business and personal or separate by credit card, debit,cash etc...?! - Pikkii got you covered with custom tags!!! Still not convinced? You got full control of which metadata is attached to the receipt, including personal notes! Concerned about privacy? Use a pass code. Need reports? It has granular ones! Custom backup? You got it - 1,2 weeks or 1,6 months with options to restore,delete and backup now, including cloud services: Evernote, Dropbox, Google and backup to any email address with granular customized options! (only while the app is open). Navigate through your receipts by New, expensed and archived receipts with sorting options by time, category, A to Z or location based. And most sorting and tagging options can be used to show on the graphical reports to almost any option you can think of! Do you know any other app that can do all of the above?! I have not tested all apps in the app store, but I own some of the top rated ones and tried plenty, some of them do better than Piikki, in one way or another, but non cover all of the above features. Thanks again to the developers for keeping Piikki alive!!! I was just mourning it in a review a day before the upgrade, on another apps review page, saying I couldnt find a match yet, and its back! To the developers: I know its not your interest, but if for some reason, you decide not to continue the development of Piikki (based on the months taken to see an update since the last one), please consider us, your loyal users, and help us retrieve and have access to our database, even though its not your responsibility, it will be very thoughful at least a heads-up warning - recently I upgraded my phone that came with the new iOS 8, and found myself locked out of it, since it crashed every time I tried opening it.

Ive tried a few and this was the most user friendly and had the best methods of saving the data. I love the auto features

All I wanted in an expense ap Good pictures Remote storage Custom naming and details No monthly fees

the application works as expected. the autosnap feature is handy. it would be usefull to set a date different from today for a series of shots, in order to have yesterdays receipt all with the right date. also, i would prefer a prefix filename related to the category, instead of document created. still, a useful app.

Some bad moments

I had thought it was an awesome app until I needed to restore my files after phone crash. The app would diligently inform me it was backin up my files every 2 weeks... but to where? I have no idea and I cant restore my years worth of receipts gone! Tech support has not emailed me back after weeks of trying and their website is useless. A waste of money and time and now Ive got to recreate a years worth of tax receipts (if I can!)

This has been my favorite scanner app for several years until it stopped working a little over a week ago. Ive contacted support three times and havent heard back. Im able to scan the picture but it wont upload. Please update the app and Ill update my review. Im switching to TurboScan since they never updated Pikki. Update: Im changing my review to five stars since the update fixed the issue. Thanks! Once again the app isnt uploading scans.

Pray that you never need help or support. YOU WONT GET IT!!!!!

I only bought the app because it was written in the news of the last update that OCR (Optical Character Reader) had been fixed. I assumed there actually was a OCR system. Turns out there is none. It is just a scanner. Waste of money and time. Any other free app is better.

Dont know if theres an app that does what I want but this for sure isnt it. Poor quality scan, especially as the receipt gets longer. I was hoping it would do some of the data entry for me, but it uses the scan date and time and requires manually inputting amount and everything else.

IPhone 4S, 按扫描按钮拍照后，程序自动关闭。希望直升级，修正。
