Quick capture

Quick capture and attachments

Record a purchase in seconds, from anywhere in the app. With Premium, keep the receipt or a screenshot with the record, or capture it now and finish it later.

Quick add, in a few seconds

Press N, or Ctrl or Cmd with K, from any screen and type one line, such as “spar 450” or “uber 86.50”. Homora reads the amount, the name and, if a word matches, the category.

  • The parts show as editable chips: amount, name, category, whose it is, date and who paid.
  • Enter records it and Esc closes. On a phone, a button floats above the tab bar.
  • Every save can be undone for five seconds.

Smart enough to save you typing

A name you have used before is filed the way it was last time. If the text matches a bill due this month, Homora offers to record the payment, and never does it on its own.

  • “Record payment for Electricity (due 25 Oct)” is an offer, one tap away.
  • You can also record a transfer to a member, or money put into a goal or savings box.
  • South African presets cover rent, levies, electricity, medical aid, school fees, vehicle costs and more. Save your own, or hide the ones you do not need.

Receipts and screenshots on the record

Keep the evidence with the record it belongs to: a receipt, an invoice, proof of payment, or a chat with the cleaner. Attachments never change a figure.

  • Add them to purchases, bill payments, a month of a bill, payments between people, savings withdrawals and contributions.
  • JPEG, PNG, WebP and PDF, up to 10 files a record and 10 MB each, and 2 GB per person.
  • Photos are shrunk before upload, and location and camera details are removed.
  • Pick a file, take a photo, drag it in, or paste a screenshot.
  • Evidence often arrives late, so you can attach to a closed month without reopening it.

Capture now, finish later

Drop, paste or photograph a receipt into Quick add, or onto Home. It becomes a capture that waits in Needs your attention until you turn it into a record or discard it.

  • A capture is private to you until it is finished.
  • When Homora is installed as a web app on Android, you can share a receipt to it from WhatsApp or your gallery.

Who sees what, and getting it back

An attachment follows its record. On a personal record, only you see it. On a household record, the household’s members do, including those on Free.

  • Only the person who added a file can remove it. A removed file is kept for 30 days, and they can restore it themselves.
  • Former members see only files added while they belonged.
  • The first time you attach a file, Homora reminds you to attach only what you are allowed to share with your household.
Premium

Adding attachments and keeping a capture to finish later are Premium; Quick add and presets are free, and everyone who can see a record can view its files.

Questions people ask

Can Homora read the amount off a receipt?

No. Attachments are evidence: they never change a figure, and Homora does not read amounts from receipts. You enter the amount yourself.

What if I remove a file by mistake?

A removed file is kept for 30 days, and you can restore it yourself from the record or from your settings.

Does a photo share my location?

No. Homora removes location and camera details from JPEG, PNG and WebP files before storing them.

Do I need Premium to see a receipt my partner added?

No. Everyone who can see a record can view its files, on any plan. Adding new ones is the Premium part.
