## What is Reci?

Reci is a receipt log for sole proprietors, freelancers and people with side income who file a Japanese income tax return (kakutei shinkoku). Snap a receipt, check the amount, and export everything when tax season comes.

Please note: Reci is built for the Japanese tax system (yen, Japanese consumption tax rates, Japanese expense categories), and the app's interface is in Japanese only.

SNAP AND CHECK
- Scan paper receipts with the document scanner
- On-device text recognition reads the date, store, total, tax rate (8% / 10%) and the qualified invoice registration number
- Recognition is a starting point, not magic: the amount field is focused as soon as the screen opens, so you can confirm or retype it in a second
- No receipt? Enter train and bus fares by hand, with a note

SORT
- Suggests a Japanese expense category (勘定科目) from the store name
- Tags, search, and separate businesses or projects

EXPORT BY MONTH OR BY YEAR
- Export one month, or a whole year (January to December) at once
- The yearly summary follows the order of the expense section of the blue return statement or the income and expenditure statement, so you can copy it straight onto the form
- Generic CSV is free
- Journal CSV in the import formats of freee, Money Forward and Yayoi (Pro, beta)
- One PDF containing the summary and every receipt (Pro)
- UTF-8 or Shift-JIS

EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE
- Receipt images, amounts and text are processed and stored on your iPhone
- The developer runs no server, and there is no account to create
- Anonymous usage statistics and crash reports are collected; they never include receipt contents
- Back up to a file whenever you like

FREE, WITH A ONE-TIME UPGRADE
- Free: up to 20 records per month, generic CSV export
- Reci Pro (one-time purchase): unlimited records, accounting-software formats, multiple businesses, PDF export
- Not a subscription

Reci records and exports your expenses. It does not prepare or file your tax return, and it is not a substitute for advice from a tax professional. The accounting-software formats are in beta: category and tax-code names may need to be mapped when importing, so please try a few entries first.

## Key features

- Digitize receipts with automatic data reading
- Automatic expense category suggestions
- On-device data processing for privacy
- Monthly expense summaries and graphs
- Export data in CSV, freee, or Money Forward formats
- No account registration required

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-10-12

An update for tax season.

- Export a whole year (January to December) at once. CSV, accounting-software formats and the receipt PDF bundle can all be exported by year as well as by month.
- The yearly summary is listed in the same order as the expense section of the Japanese blue return statement (Aoiro Shinkoku Kessansho) or the income and expenditure statement (Shushi Uchiwakesho), so you can copy it line by line. You can also export just the per-category totals as CSV.
- Record payments that have no receipt, such as train and bus fares, without taking a photo. Tap "レシートなしで入力" on the capture screen.
- Fixed: the "カテゴリ" column of the generic CSV was missing the expense category, which shifted the columns after it one place to the left.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-10-09

・レシートを多数ためた状態で一覧を開くと、アプリが応答しなくなることがある不具合を直しました。画像の扱いを見直し、100 枚以上でも軽く開けます
・すでに保存済みのレシートにも、数回の起動にわけて自動で縮小版を作ります（操作は不要です）
・撮影時に保存する画像の大きさに上限を付けました。読み取りの精度は変わりません

### 1.1.0 — 2026-07-29

・設定に「業務スイート」を追加しました。
・軽微な改善と安定性の向上を行いました。
