October release drop: here's what's new

Hey trailblazers! πŸŒ…

Testing phase? Crushed it! (virtual high-five to our testing heroes). But hold onto your horses -or ponies if you're TrishA_WA - because we're just getting started. If you tested things out by sending an invoice and logging an expense, then you've scored six months of VIP access to everything new. Totally free. Because you're just that awesome.

Death to receipt mountain! πŸ“Έ

Nobody got into business to manage receipts. So we fixed it. Snap, tap, done. Get back to the stuff that actually matters. Watch the receipt magic happen.

One snap and our tech does the heavy lifting:

  • Automatically grabs all the boring bits (totals, GST, invoice numbers - you know the drill)
  • Creates your expense record faster than you can say "where's my coffee?"
  • Keeps everything organised (farewell, shoebox filing system!)

Accept in-person payments with your iPhone πŸ“±

Take payments straight from your iPhone with Tap to Pay. No extra hardware needed - just you, your iPhone, and infinite possibilities.

Getting started is easier than ordering takeout:

  • Lightning-fast setup right in the app
  • Link your Apple ID (we'll hold your hand through it)
  • 24-hour wait*
  • Take payments wherever your phone works
  • Works with contactless cards, Apple Pay and other digital wallets

*Standard approval stuff applies (boring but necessary - we don't make the rules... well, actually we do, but you know what we mean)

Invoices that make you look like a boss 🎨

Because life's too short for ugly invoices you can now customise yours to your heart's content:

We'll chase the money (so you don't have to) πŸ‘‹

Let our robots handle those awkward "hey, about that payment..." emails. You've got better things to do with your life.

Smart reminders that actually get results (when you send invoices through the app):

  • Set and forget (for you, not your customers)
  • You're the boss of if they go out and to who
  • Track who's been gently nudged

Heads up: Reminders only work for invoices sent directly through the app. Sharing invoices another way? Let us know if you'd like to see reminders happen everywhere- we're all ears! πŸ‘‚

Numbers that make sense πŸ“Š

Categories your way (because you know your business best) πŸ’β€β™€οΈ

Create categories that actually match your business (food truck supplies? yarn for your knitting empire?) and ditch the ones you don't need. No more squeezing your transactions into categories that don't fit.

Take control with custom categories:

Pro tip: You can't delete those tax-related categories though - future you will thank us come tax time! πŸ˜‰

Coming Soon: Smart Bank Connections πŸ’³

Here's what's landing early next year:

  • Direct connections to major banks
  • Transactions appear automatically each day
  • Smart matching with your invoices and expenses

And guess who gets first dibs? That's right - you do, you beautiful early adopter, you. 🎯


High fives to our community heroes πŸ™Œ

First up, a big shout out to TrishA_WA  and Kash7918 for suggesting the ability to edit, delete, or link categories. Your wish is our command!

And let's not forget HBird Danny11 , TrishA_WA, Kash7918 , and Sroberts1 who all wanted to customise invoices to fit their brand.

 

Thanks for all your fantastic suggestions and keep them coming! We’re here to make your MYOB experience as smooth as possible.
