Managing paper expense receipts during a business trip can be a hassle and can slow down expense report creation and submission. Chrome River now offers Chrome River SNAP - an optional app for business travellers to eliminate the need to keep a stack of paper receipts and decrease the amount of time necessary to create an expense report later.
With Chrome River SNAP, you can:
• Capture and upload receipt images as expenses occur. Images will be uploaded to the Chrome River EXPENSE Receipt Gallery
• Share existing receipt images from your smartphone's photo gallery app or third-party photo apps
• Separate your business from your personal life. Images taken with Chrome River SNAP are uploaded to the EXPENSE Receipt Gallery and are not saved to your personal photo library.
Here's how Chrome River SNAP works:
• Simply take a photo of a receipt using the Chrome River SNAP app and upload!
• Share an existing receipt image, open the image in any photo gallery app and tap the "share" icon and look for the CR SNAP icon to upload your image to the EXPENSE Receipt Gallery.
• Go to the Upload Gallery to review all the pending and successfully uploaded receipts sent from your device.
Notes:
This is a standalone utility app for capturing and uploading receipt images. To create and submit expense reports using the receipt images captured and uploaded automatically by this utility app, users should log into the Chrome River web app.
CAN I USE THIS APP WITHOUT AN INTERNET CONNECTION?
Yes! Whether you have an internet connection or not, you will be able to use Chrome River SNAP. There may be times when an internet connection is temporarily unavailable and in this case, the image will remain in Chrome River SNAP until you are in a location with a stronger connection and it is then uploaded. We encourage you to not close the app until a green tick has been designated to a photo, indicating that the photo has been uploaded successfully to Chrome River EXPENSE.

You must be an existing Chrome River EXPENSE user to use Chrome River SNAP.
System requirements: Chrome River's mobile apps support the most current generation and the 1 prior generation of iOS devices.

Chrome River SNAP FAQ
Is Chrome River SNAP free?
Yes, Chrome River SNAP is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is Chrome River SNAP legit?
🤔 The Chrome River SNAP app's quality is mixed. Some users are satisfied, while others report issues. Consider reading individual reviews for more context.
This app is atrocious.
Doesn't retain receipts half the time, and forces you to download and re-upload.
The app won't record what card the charge went to, so stores it as a personal expense to get reimbursed when it was charged to my company card.
Doesn't accurately record the amount on a receipt so it doesn't matchup when doing expenses.
One of the worst apps I have ever used, as it creates many more headaches than it solves.
Unusable on iOS
This app was so good on my Samsung phone. I recently switched to iOS and getting the receipts to upload is a real chore. The upload frequently fails. Often if they do upload, they will be in my expense portal but show as failed to upload in the snap app, leading to wasted time as I try to reconcile what happened. I’m probably better off not using the app at this point.
Horrible!!
I wish I could rate this differently. However, I am unable to use it because the app will not send a verification message to my registered email. You can’t use the app until this step is completed. There is also no resource available to reach out to for assistance. Horrible app!
Quit working
Was a nice app, but it started failing uploads and keeps repeating uploads, so I have multiple copies now. Feedback button doesnt work, wants to open a mail app I dont use.
it quit working there is a bug!
cannot get past send axcess code. i get the code but the app gets stuck and the buttons disappear and unreadable text trails off the screen. using iphone 13 and ipad.
Unusable
Opening the app prompts you to verify email address, but when you continue to enter it, the whole screen whites out and does not let you proceed to actually use the app. Would give zero stars if possible.
Easy no more
App will not send verification email to allow access. Use to work well, but mot presently.
Works about 1/3 of the time
When this works, it works great but that’s about 2/3 of the time. Often, when I snap a pic of a receipt it never shows up or it is only a portion of the pic. Literally every time I try to complete a ER I have to go back to my receipt envelope, take another pic of the receipt in question, wait for it to upload and then do it all again. Maddening.
Forever wait
It takes FOREVER for this app to upload receipts to Chrome River and many times it doesn’t upload the entire receipt, which means I have a second forever wait to upload again.
Disappointing
This app literally just takes a photo and uploads it.
No edge detection, no straightening, no color / brightness enhancement, nada. WTH?
Apple’s Notes app does a better job of “scanning” receipts. It even allows cut and paste of text from the pictures.
