We have provided smartphone apps for “Bakuraku Application” and “Bakuraku Expense Settlement” to create an environment that can be used even in situations where a PC is not available.
However, conventional apps display mobile websites within the app, and have not been able to fully provide the usability that can be achieved with smartphone apps. To resolve these issues and make your experience more comfortable, we have released a new app for iPhone and Android. Release summary
The new smartphone app features a redesigned design and features that have been requested in the past.
* -Main features-*
* 1. Renovated design optimized for smartphones *
The design has been optimized for smartphones by reviewing the ease of viewing, selection, and input from the beginning.
* 2. Push notification function *
You can also receive notifications received via email or Slack in the app. You will receive a notification if you forget to apply or the approval deadline is near, so you can avoid forgetting to apply or approve.
* 3. Continuous shooting function *
You can take a photo of multiple receipts and receipts at once and upload them all at once. AI-OCR reads the contents of uploaded receipts and receipts, and the application items are automatically entered.
With these updates, you can more comfortably handle tasks such as expense settlement and approval/application from your smartphone, even in work environments where you cannot use a PC.
