## What is Receipt Roost?

Receipt Roost is a small, private receipt and warranty vault for people who want paperwork to become useful before it is too late. Add a purchase, tag it, track the return window, keep warranty notes, and export a clean summary when tax time or a claim arrives.

Receipt Roost is intentionally local-first: no sign in, no ads, no bank connection, and no backend account. The app ships with sample records so App Review can test the whole flow immediately.


## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-06-23

Deadline reminders are here. Turn them on and Receipt Roost schedules a local notification the morning before each return window or warranty closes, so you stop missing them. Choose how many days of warning you want and what time of day to be reminded. Everything stays on your device — nothing is sent anywhere.

The new Insights tab turns your receipts into a clear picture of your spending: a month-by-month bar chart, your total and average receipt, your largest purchase, and a per-category breakdown — all from the amounts you already type in.

You can now back up everything to a single file. Export all your records as one JSON file to keep in Files, email to yourself, or move to a new phone, then restore it later by merging it with what you have or replacing everything. As always, Receipt Roost is fully offline with no account, no ads, and no tracking, and records saved in earlier versions keep working.

### 1.2 — 2026-06-19

What's New in Receipt Roost 1.2

Version 1.2 turns Receipt Roost from a record list into a real deadline and money tracker - still 100% offline, no account, no ads, no tracking, no in-app purchases.

Automatic return & warranty deadlines
Add the purchase date and Receipt Roost now calculates both the return-window close date and the warranty-expiry date for you - two separate deadlines on one purchase. Pick a store to auto-fill its standard return window, or set your own days and warranty months. Records show a clear countdown ("Closes in 5 days", "Warranty expires in 30 days"), and the new "Closing soon" panel surfaces anything closing within a week.

Money totals that add up
Amounts you type are now totaled automatically. The dashboard and Toolkit show your total tracked spend, your running tax-categorized total, and per-category subtotals - no spreadsheet needed.

A real PDF packet
A new paginated PDF "Accountant packet" export joins the existing CSV and plain-text exports. It includes a spending summary, per-category subtotals, your open deadlines, and every record with its return and warranty dates.

Bundled offline reference
A new Reference screen ships standard return windows for common US retailers, typical manufacturer-warranty lengths by product category, and the IRS record-retention periods (how long to keep receipts). General reference only - Receipt Roost organizes records and does not provide tax, accounting, warranty, or legal advice.

Other improvements
- Smart brief now leads with your most urgent deadline.
- CSV export adds Amount, Retailer, Purchase Date, Return Closes, and Warranty Expires columns.
- Records saved in earlier versions upgrade automatically - nothing is lost.
