I love that I can be anywhere and take care of my expenses any time I want
I use it for uploading expenses at work; it's also great for miles traveled and expenses related to that sort of thing We love it. It makes submitting expense reports painless and easy as 123. So much better than trying to hang on to paper receipts and emailing them. The app is great for being…

It can be more integrated with cab providers such as Uber. Uber is already integrated, but services such as credit cards and other bill payments could be directly integrated. When you do any expense and swipe the card, all the details could automatically populate, and you would only need to provide the reason. This would create the best user experience. Instead of returning to home or the office to fill up all the details and verify, it could fill up all the details automatically from the card detail and only ask for the reason. Even reasons could be standardized. For instance, if it is a restaurant, it is obvious the expense is for food. If it is a mobile bill, it is for the operator bill payment. In these cases, AI could suggest the right reason based on previous payment history. We do not use the GPS mileage tracking feature as it is quite plain and suited for old school people.
