What is Spentrip?

Spentrip is a mobile travel expense tracker for iOS and Android. It gives you three ways to log spending — scan a receipt, type it in, or say it out loud — and organizes everything with categories, tags, and trips so you can see where your money goes while traveling.

Whether you're tracking personal travel spending, managing group trip expenses, or splitting costs on a shared trip, Spentrip handles it. This guide walks you through the basics so you can start logging expenses right away.

Navigating the App

The app is organized around three main tabs, accessible from the bottom navigation bar:

Home

Your recent expenses at a glance. This is where you land every time you open the app.

Expenses

Reports

Charts and analytics showing your spending by category, time period, and trip.
