1. Open the Synced App

Start by opening the Synced app on your mobile device. Once the app is open, locate the + button in the bottom navigation bar and tap it to begin.

2. Capture a Photo of Your Receipt

Use your phone’s camera and Synced’s auto receipt recognizer to take a clear photo of your expense receipt. Ensure the receipt is well-lit and fully visible in the frame for the best results.

3. Add Expense Details (Optional)

After capturing the receipt, you’ll be taken to the next screen, where you can manually add or confirm details about the expense, such as:

  • Expense category

  • Merchant name

  • Notes about the purchase

4. Wait for Automatic Extraction

Allow up to 30 seconds for Synced to extract the expense details automatically. During this time, the app will process the receipt and populate fields such as Date, Amount & Merchant.

5. Review and Edit

Once the expense has been processed, you can tap on the record to review the extracted details. If necessary, make any edits to ensure accuracy.

Tips for Best Results

  • Ensure your receipt is flat and not crumpled for the clearest photo.

  • Use the app in a well-lit area to enhance the auto-recognition feature.

  • Double-check extracted details before submitting to avoid errors.

By following these steps, you can effortlessly submit and manage your expenses using the Synced mobile app. If you have further questions, feel free to contact our support team.
