### 1/5 — Not Sure if its Worth it

*2013-10-25*

Downloaded app has been installing for 2-3 days. Will remove maybe I will reinstall. Not a good sign of a great ap.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2011-07-14*

I used this for business purposes to have the ability to just take a picture of a receipt, categorize the expense, and email it to the accountant. It works great for this.  I also used it for travel with friends and it was easy to keep track of how much each of us spent.

### 2/5 — Useful app, but can only convert into $, so limited use to non US.
