Frequently Asked Questions

RCT is an iOS app that scans your receipts and automatically sorts each individual item into one of 49 spending categories, so you can see exactly what you're spending on, not just how much.

Most budgeting apps record a purchase as a single sum per transaction. RCT reads the receipt line by line, so one shopping trip can be split automatically into categories like groceries, snacks, and household goods instead of one undifferentiated total.

RCT sorts scanned items into 49 categories, covering everything from snacks and dining to transport and pet supplies. Those categories sit inside 9 broader groups (groceries, going out, home, transport, shopping, fun, personal care, health, and money & obligations), which is the level the charts start at before you drill in.

Yes. Every category belongs to one group by default, and you can move any category into a different group, moving coffee out of groceries and into going out, for example. You can also create up to two groups of your own, name them, and pick their icon and color. Reassigning a category regroups your existing spending too, not just what you scan afterwards.

No. Scan a receipt with your camera and RCT extracts and categorizes each item automatically.

Yes. You can enter an amount by hand, or describe what you bought in plain text, such as "two coffees, a croissant and a sandwich" with the total you paid, and RCT turns that into an itemized, categorized receipt the same way a scan would.
