I would really like to use this app. But a mileage log is an absolute requirement. The ability to set a reimbursement rate would be nice, but I can do that in a spreadsheet just as easily.

Simply allow me to input a number of miles and a reason for the trip (or destination).

I think the following enhancements would be helpful:

1. photo capture of receipts, etc.
2. mileage calculations
3. a notes section which would allow for comments, etc.
4. better expense report rather than just a CSV version

I find that the arrow > is not responsive. It is very difficult to tap it and go to the next screen.

please include the option to arrange the categories in an expense log like the way most applications allow. For eg tap EDIT and you get "=" on the right side of the row. Tap the "=" and move the row (arrange) according to how you will like it.
please include a "transfer" from one expense log to another. This is useful if I specified a "budget" for an expense log and I want to transfer that additional amount to another expense log. For this, it will be great to handle the exchange rate during the transfer.
Is there a better category view like what you have in the expense log view? What I mean is an "outline" view for consistency with the expense view.
Also for such views, please allow the specification of the start and end date so that the view can be more specific and easier to view.
thanks

what would make this gold would be the ability to sync with Quickbooks. Any plans?

I've had a little bit of time to play around with your app, and taken it on one business trip. Here are my observations:

1. I use a corporate card where possible. My company reimburses expenses to that card directly. However, there are times when I must use a personal card or cash, which I must declare as a personal remittance. For full functionality in my role, I would greatly appreciate a "remittance" field on item data, which is then reported as a column on the csv data. A boolean flag would be enough for my purposes, but others would probably benefit from a customizable card list.

2. Please allow me to import a configuration file for category data (providing that Apple allows it). My company has a very long list of expense categories, which leads to a lot of manual entry of data. I'm sure that some of my associates would appreciate the work that you've put into your application. I'd like to be able to provide them with a configuration file, which will customize the application to our line of business.

3. Related to #2. Will you please disable display of categories on the expense summary until used? While we have a large list of categories, some are rarely, if ever, used.

.

Let me second that. I go to the airport in $$ and spend ££ (or another currency) on arrival. Hitting > 1 country on a trip is not unusual.

It would be great if I could enter an exchange rate and convert all my expenses to my home country.

I just bough iSpend 2 and think its a brilliant app compared to whats out there. I hope it is able to stay with the fast changing market though... I have a few requests of my own:

1. Sometimes someone pays something for you, but you don't enter it, cause you haven't really spent that money. In fact you have an 'I owe you'. Is there any way you guys could try implement something to keep track of what you owe somebody else or what they owe you?

2. Also, I like to know how much I have in my accounts. Is there anyway you can provide a function to allow me to enter my balances of my bank accounts in say the beginning of each month and then the total expenses can just be subtracted to give me an idea on how I'm doing?

Thanks for the great program! Keep it up...

Hi,

Thanks for the app, simple, I like it. A few feature requests from the business traveler that I am

- provide feedback means that do not require registering to a web site. What's wrong with email ?
- already mentionned on the forum : be able to change the currency per item (and why not get the conversion rate from the net ?, must be changeable afterwards)
- already mentionned on the forum : the current picture functionality is nice but in real life, you need to submit the real tickets, so I personally don't see the point.

New feature request : be able to add an ID to each expense. Once I have exported in excel my expenses, I need to cut and paste it to the official excel my company uses and for each item, reference the real ticket. It is simply done by assigning a number to each item and reporting that number on the ticket. If your app could add me an ID box (automatically generated as an option), that would be even more efficient.

Thanks !
