Introducing Receipts! – Your New Digital Shoebox for Project Expenses!
We're thrilled to announce the launch of our brand-new Receipts feature, designed to revolutionize how you manage project expenses on both the web and mobile app! We know you're constantly on the go, juggling purchases and receipts, so we built this with efficiency and convenience in mind.
Gone are the days of paper shoeboxes and lost receipts! We're making it easier than ever to capture, organize, and link your project expenses, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.
Capture Receipts On-the-Go with the Mobile App
When you make a purchase in the field at the Home Improvements Store or lumberyard, you can immediately open the FlipperForce mobile app and snap a picture of that receipt.
- Snap & Upload:Immediately after a purchase, simply take a picture of your receipt or upload existing photos/files directly from your phone.
- Ditch the Paper:As soon as you hit upload, that physical receipt is safely stored in your digital shoebox, and you can get rid of the paper without worrying about losing it.
Manage and Link Receipts from the Web App
Once you’ve snapped a pic on your phone, that receipt is immediately accessible online in the web application, making the process of linking it to a transaction seamless.
The Central Hub for Receipts
You’ll find a dedicated Receipts section conveniently located in the Accounting area of your FlipperForce project sidebar. This is your new Receipt hub, giving you a clear, centralized table view of every receipt associated with that specific project.
- Bulk Uploads:Easily upload multiple receipts at once, saving you valuable time.
- Centralized Table View:See every receipt for your project in one organized table, complete with essential details.
Link Receipts to Expense Tracker
The real magic happens when you head over to the Expense Tracker.
- Select a Receipt:From the Create New Transaction window, you'll now see an option to select a receipt directly from your Receipt Inbox.
- Side-by-Side View:When you select a Receipt, our revamped Transaction modal gives you a full, side-by-side view. Your receipt is clearly displayed on the left, and the expense transaction data entry fields are conveniently on the right.
What's Next? AI-Powered Expense Tracking!
This new Receipts feature is just the beginning! We're already hard at work on our next major enhancement: AI Receipt Scanning. Imagine automatically converting your receipt images into fully populated transactions with just a click—that's the power we're bringing to FlipperForce soon!
We're confident this new Receipts feature will significantly improve your project management and accounting workflow. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

Easy Wins
New Thumbnails for Uploaded PDF Documents & Receipts
Flipping houses involves managing lots of PDF documents—from contracts and permits to receipts.
Previously, uploaded PDFs were displayed as generic gray icons, which made visually searching for a specific file slow and difficult.
We've fixed that!
We’ve replaced those generic icons with automatic visual thumbnail images in both your Document Manager
and Receipts
area. This upgrade lets you quickly see and identify contracts, receipts, and other critical project documents at a glance, eliminating the guesswork and saving you time.
A Massive Upgrade Behind the Scenes
To ensure every user benefits immediately, our team successfully processed and generated thumbnail images for over 50,000 previously uploaded PDFs. Whether the document was uploaded today or last year, you now have a crystal-clear, visual log of your important paperwork.

FlipperForce Field Mobile App
Mobile Updates: Get Directions & Open in Web Browser
We've added new project shortcuts to the FlipperForce mobile app to help you get things done with just one tap.
Open in Web Browser
Need to access a feature that's only available on our full web platform? We've added a shortcut that allows you to seamlessly open your current project in your phone's web browser with just one tap. This gives you instant access to all of FlipperForce's powerful web-based features.

Getting to your properties is now faster than ever. The new "Get Directions" shortcut automatically opens the property's location in your native map app, like Google Maps or Apple Maps, and provides you with driving directions instantly.

Photo Log
Photo Upload Ordering Improvements
Based on your feedback, we've improved the photo upload feature in both the web app and the mobile app to ensure your photos are always uploaded in the correct order to the second.
Previously, photos were uploaded and sorted by the day they were taken, but this sometimes caused the photos to be out of order to exact timestamp the minute and second the photo was taken.
We've now fixed this by ensuring that all uploaded photos are organized by the exact timestamp, down to the second.
This change guarantees that as you walk through a property and take photos, the photos will be saved in the exact same sequence. When you view your photo log in the web app or mobile app's photo carousel, you can now virtually walk back through the property in the precise order you originally did.

Increased File & Photo Upload Limits
We've made some great improvements to how you manage your project documents and photos in FlipperForce!
We've increased the file size limit for all document and photo uploads from 25 MB to 30 MB per file. This gives you more flexibility to upload high-quality photos and larger documents like blueprints or surveys.
We also removed the 1 GB storage limit on projects. This means you now have unlimited storage for all your project files and photos, so you can upload as much as you need without worrying about hitting a cap.
These changes are designed to help you manage and store all your critical project assets more efficiently and without restrictions.
