It’s been a couple months since our last update, but we’re very proud to announce something we’ve all been waiting for: the Expensify iPhone application! I know you thought we were making it up all along (and at times it felt like a dream), but the vapor has finally taken shape and you can download it today!
Install the Expensify iPhone Application
As you might know, you’ve always been able to take pictures of receipts and email them to receipts@expensify.com for inclusion with expense reports. This application streamlines it even further for iPhone users such that you can take pictures and upload straight to your account, over wifi or 3G, skipping email entirely. So download it today and give it a shot!
We’ve been so busy we haven’t spent a lot of time communicating with you (sorry about that!) but here’s a quick update:
We’ve also released a ton of minor fixes under the hood, and are laying the foundation for some even more significant changes down the road. So we might have been quiet, but we sure have been busy!
That’s right, we just doubled the company. Granted, that’s not terribly hard when you only have two people to start, but think of it this way: if we can do all this with just two guys, just think what we’ll be able to do with two more!
So there’s a lot going on over here at Expensify world headquarters, and I’ll try to do a better job in the future of keeping you informed. In the meantime, just keep filing expense reports and we’ll keep getting you reimbursed, faster and easier every day!
