Cloud Sync
Always in Sync, Even Offline
Spentrip syncs your data across all your devices in real time using Firestore. Add an expense on your phone and it appears on your tablet instantly. Lose connectivity and everything keeps working -- the app catches up automatically when you're back online.
Cloud sync is a free feature. Every Spentrip account gets it.
Real-Time Sync
Your Data
Receipts, tags, and settings sync automatically across all devices signed into your account. Changes appear instantly.
Shared Trips
Data in shared trips broadcasts to all members in real time. When a teammate adds an expense, everyone sees it immediately.
Offline Support
No internet? No problem. You can create and edit receipts offline. Spentrip stores everything locally and uploads it when connectivity returns.
Upload Queue
When you create receipts offline, they enter an upload queue. The app automatically retries failed uploads with exponential backoff -- no manual intervention needed in most cases.

Receipt File Storage
When you scan a receipt or attach a file, the image or PDF is uploaded to cloud storage. Thumbnails are generated and cached locally for fast browsing.
Supported File Types

- Automatic backup -- your data is automatically backed up via Firestore. No manual exports or backup steps needed.
