Importing items via receipt scan (OCR)
Photograph a receipt to auto-populate item fields using on-device text recognition.
Minvy can read a receipt photo using on-device OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and use the results to pre-fill item details. This happens entirely on your iPhone — no data is sent to a server for basic OCR.
How to scan a receipt
- Tap + to add a new item.
- Tap Scan Receipt.
- Point your camera at the receipt and capture it.
- Minvy extracts item names and prices where possible and pre-fills the item fields.
- Review the suggestions, edit as needed, and tap Save.
Tip: For complex multi-item receipts, consider using AI-powered receipt OCR (Premium, uses AI credits) for more accurate extraction.
