?Anonymous posted 20 Sept 2025

Automatic reading of SMS to record transactions automatically. This will avoid entering each and every transaction manually. This will also ensure we don't miss out any spend

Yes. Please add this feature to the app

AAnonymous17 Nov 2025, 10:31

Yes, we shouldn't be entering each and every transaction, as most of our transactions are digital. So please include automatic sync sms and add transaction

This feature is great but also should be added with a activate/deactivate option. Not everyone wants their messages to be read by an app. Also if the app makes mistakes in accurately reading the message, the deactivate option can be used by the user.

Yes this feature should be added to make this app more user friendly

AAnonymous17 Nov 2025, 10:32

Kindly arrange

AAnonymous17 Nov 2025, 10:32

Yes this feature makes this app more user friendly and helps to keep a track of budget, we can reduce manual entries.

Giving sms access to any app is not safe at all, even if it's trusted app

I'm a premium user & I have paid for it because this app is unlike others where it invades your privacy by reading your messages. I have tried a lot of those and they do a poor job at that because there are a lot of nuances to that automatic fetching. Plus, the idea of writing an expense after I have spent the money makes me think twice before spending. You might do an impulse spend but once you will write it down, you will be careful next time.

If you have to add this, please add a feature flag so that the app runs as usual without SMS permissions.

@amit_mohan please don't let this app to access sms, if this feature comes please provide option to disable this feature, this feature will kill the sole purpose of this app, because many people prefer privacy more than functionality.

This is a most valuable feature that we want to add because many times i forget to add spends in app and that happen my app and bank accout balance mismatched

I’m surprised this isn’t already offered as a feature on Premium. It would reduce so much manual effort! Please add.

Let the app read transaction sms to fetch the details, otherwise it's useless app if required manual entry

AAnonymous04 Jun 2026, 01:21

After subscription realised that no automatic sms reading

AAnonymous18 Jun 2026, 00:58

Must needed feature at the earliest & an AI insights plus chat/analysis model

But it's not safe, they can read our OTP and secure sms also.
