Add entries in your own words
Text, voice, receipts and PDFs. What to check before moving on.
Last updated September 30, 2026
Say what happened
“Groceries €62 yesterday”, “dinner 45 on Friday” or “taxi €18”. Include what it was and how much it cost, adding the date or currency when needed. Without a date, Papirer uses today. You can also name a category or list.
One message can contain up to five entries. Keep each description and amount distinct and check the whole result. Attachments are for receipts and invoices, not a full bank-statement import.
Speak or attach
- Voice: with the bar empty, tap the microphone, speak and send. A recording can last up to 20 seconds.
- Photo: open + and choose the camera or photo library. Keep the total and date visible and in focus.
- PDF: open + and select your digital receipt or invoice.
- Share: use the iOS share sheet in another app and choose Papirer to send supported content.
Processing needs an internet connection. Camera and microphone permissions are only needed for those features.
Saved, ready for review or waiting for an answer
Clear entries may be saved automatically. When a proposal appears, check the details and confirm, adjust it in your own words or dismiss it. If Papirer asks a question, answer in the same conversation.
You can say “It was 28, not 18” or open the entry and edit it. Use the conversation's retry option if something fails. If the outcome is unconfirmed, check your diary and activity before sending the same expense again.
Income and repeating payments
Enable income tracking in Settings before adding “salary €2000”. Say “internet €30 every month on the 5th” to propose a recurring entry. Check its frequency and start date: a brand name alone does not guarantee that a payment repeats.
