Fresh Xpense is free, very simple to use, and supports offline data entry – you can record your expenses even if you don’t have internet access, and they will be sync’d to xpenser.com the next time you are connected.

By user request, here’s a quick video of how to use your camera phone to record expenses and receipts. The video shows an iPhone, but the same technique can be used with any camera phone with email capabilities:

  • First, take a picture of your receipt
  • Then, email that picture to r@xpenser.com
  • Use the subject of the email to describe the expense – for example, “Parking $8″

Thanks to the wonderful folks at Zia Consulting, we have our first Xpenser iPhone application, called Fresh Xpense.

Fresh Xpense has been built using our brand spanking new Xpenser Platform APIs, also available now. More apps for more platforms are coming soon, and feel free to jump in and build you own.

Fresh Xpense is wonderfully easy to use and supports offline mode – you can enter expenses even when you’re not connected to the web and they will be synchronized the next time you get online.

Give it a try, and don’t forget to rate it. And as always, feedback is very much appreciated and welcome: iphone@xpenser.com .

iPhone App Testers Wanted!

14

The iPhone app is ready for testing, so if you’re ready to test and give us feedback, we want you!

[Update] Thanks everyone for your responses, we’ve filled up all the spots for now. Feel free to add yourself to the list using the instructions below, but unfortunately we won’t be able to get you into this round of testing. We’ll get you on the list for future rounds, however.

Here are the requirements:

  • You must have an iPhone :-)
  • You must be willing going to use the app and provide feedback. The iPhone testing setup limits the number of testers we can allow, so if you’re not likely to provide feedback please wait till the app is in the app store.
  • You’re familiar with or are willing to learn how to install the app using iTunes. This is fairly straight forward and we can help you, but it’s not as easy is just downloading the app from the app store.

If that sounds like you, please do the following:

  • From your iPhone, go to the App Store and search for the free app “UDID Helper”. Install it.
  • Start the UDID Helper app. Push the “Email to developer” button and enter the address iphone@xpenser.com .

The number of spots are limited so get your emails in. As always, we’re looking forward to your feedback.

And of course we always love to hear from you about Xpenser in general: feedback@xpenser.com .

The Xpenser iPhone interface is now live, available by visiting http://xpenser.com/ via your iPhone.

We wanted to express our sincere thanks to all of the testers; the quality of your feedback was unbelievable. We’ve incorporated the first round of feedback into the interface and will be rolling out the rest over the next few weeks and months. We still want to hear from you, so leave comments here or email us at feedback@xpenser.com . Don’t be shy about direct and honest feedback; we’re just as happy to hear about what could be improved as “it looks great”.

To make it easier to get to Xpenser, once you visit http://xpenser.com/ with your iPhone hit the “+” icon at the bottom of the screen and select “Add to Home Screen”. This will put the Xpenser icon on your iPhone home screen and allow you to enter your expenses with a single click.
