## What is Papero?

Papero – Receipts & Documents: private, intelligent, local.

Papero is the receipt and document app for freelancers, self-employed professionals, and small business owners. Photograph, import, or scan your invoices and receipts – Papero automatically recognizes issuer, amount, date, and category, and files everything in a tax-compliant (GoBD) way.

The difference: all AI processing runs directly on your iPhone or iPad via Apple Intelligence. There are no Papero servers, no cloud analysis, and no data collection. Your receipts never leave your device.

YOUR RECEIPTS, CAPTURED AUTOMATICALLY
Capture receipts via camera, photo library, or file import
Multi-page scans are combined into a single searchable PDF
Issuer, amount, date, VAT, and category are recognized automatically
Papero learns from your corrections and gets more accurate over time
Sellers on marketplace invoices (e.g. Amazon) are correctly assigned as the issuer

ALWAYS ORGANIZED, ALWAYS COMPLIANT
Automatic, consistent file naming and storage
Full control when re-scanning a receipt you've already captured: create a duplicate or replace the original
Manage and customize categories and issuers freely

EXPORT FOR YOUR ACCOUNTANT OR BOOKKEEPING
Export as DATEV, CSV, PDF, or JSON
Structured, GoBD-compliant preparation of your data

PRIVACY-FIRST DOWN TO THE LAST DETAIL
All AI features run on-device via Apple Intelligence / Foundation Models
No Papero servers involved, no ad trackers, no data sharing
Your receipts stay exclusively on your device

ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYONE
Thoughtful accessibility support: Dynamic Type, contrast, reduced motion, and more
Native iOS experience, no detours
Papero is free to use with limited functionality. With Papero Pro (a one-time purchase), you unlock every feature permanently – no subscription required.

Private. Intelligent. Local. – Papero.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 4.0.0 — 2026-08-29

**New: Profiles**

- **Multiple profiles:** Keep your receipts cleanly separated by context – for
  example "Business" and "Personal". Each profile has its own receipts,
  categories and companies.
- **Fast profile switching:** Switch with a single tap from the profile chip in
  the navigation – on iPhone and Mac.
- **Tax profile:** Store VAT mode, tax number, VAT ID and fiscal year per
  profile. These details flow automatically into cover sheets and export headers.
- **Home office:** For personal profiles, Papero calculates the deductible work
  share of your receipts – by area or flat rate, for the categories you choose.
- **Profile-aware exports:** CSV, DATEV, PDF, JSON and XML export only the active
  profile's receipts; the PDF export includes a dedicated home-office summary
  when that feature is enabled.

More than one profile requires Papero Pro. Everything still runs fully
on-device – private, intelligent, local.

### 3.0.0 — 2026-08-17

• Better search: new faceted filters (category, issuer, payment, currency, year, AI analysis) – find receipts in seconds.
• iCloud sync with your Mac: capture on the go, continue on the Mac.
• Clearer facet chips with a dedicated color per filter, now wrapping to two lines.
• Smaller improvements and polish.

Everything stays private: all AI analysis runs on-device.

### 2.11.0 — 2026-07-07

What's new in Papero:

Scan multi-page receipts in one go – Papero automatically combines every page into a single, searchable PDF.
Receipts are now searchable thanks to on-device text recognition, and re-analyzing documents is noticeably faster.
New choice when re-scanning a receipt you've already captured: create a duplicate or replace the original – whichever you prefer.
Sellers on marketplace invoices (e.g. Amazon) are now correctly recognized as the issuer instead of just the platform.
Minor stability improvements, including PDF preview reliability.

### 2.10.0 — 2026-07-02

New: Import multiple files at once – select up to 15 PDFs or images, Apple Intelligence analyzes them one by one, and you review all results in a single batch screen.

Document preview: Tap once on the preview image to open the original document in iOS QuickLook.

Improved receipt analysis: Faster AI recognition for DACH-region documents with more accurate issuer and category suggestions.

### 2.9.0 — 2026-06-17

What's new in version 2.9.0

AI analysis much more precise
Document analysis now uses a multi-level AI chain: exhibitors, positions, amounts, invoice number and payment information are extracted one after the other in a coherent context - this reduces errors and noticeably improves accuracy.

Real-time preview during analysis
Detected fields appear directly during scanning - the issuer, amount, VAT, invoice number and date are displayed step by step, even before the analysis is complete.

Learning profiles more reliable
The app-internal learning behavior - who prefers which categories, typical payment methods per exhibitor, known invoice formats - is now guaranteed to be loaded before the first analysis starts. Until now, proposals could remain empty, although data were available.

Data backup optimized
Learning profiles (exisors, categories, payment behavior) are correctly included in iCloud backups. Temporary analysis caches are explicitly excluded – saves backup memory without data loss.
