Perfect for a driving heavy trade

Receipts scan straight in and the categories are usually right. That said, there is no balance sheet, my accountant still does the year end and you outgrow it the second you register for VAT or incorporate.

Pros

Receipts scan straight in and the categories are usually right.

Cons

There is no balance sheet, my accountant still does the year end.

Does the MTD job on my phone

It detects trips and I just swipe to say business or personal, and quarterly updates went to HMRC with no fuss at all. No free tier, so Sage looks cheaper if you barely drive for work, but we live with it.

Pros

Cons
