Never miss a return window again

Bought something you might take back? Backsies is a receipt scanner and returns reminder app for Android. Snap the receipt, and Backsies reads the store, date and total for you. Pick the return window and warranty, and it works out the deadlines and reminds you before they pass. Everything stays on your phone.

1. Snap the receipt

Scan a paper receipt with the built-in document scanner, or pick a photo from your gallery. Backsies reads the store, date and total, and you can edit them.

2. Pick the return window

Quick picks for 14, 30, 60 or 90-day returns and 1 or 2-year warranties, or set your own. Backsies works out the deadlines.

3. Get reminded in time

A reminder 3 days before the last day to return, another on the last day, and one 30 days before a warranty ends.

Features

Scan receipts in seconds

Use the built-in document scanner or a photo from your gallery. The store name, purchase date and total are read automatically.

See what’s due at a glance

The Next up card shows your most urgent return with a countdown. Colour-coded badges show the rest: red when it’s urgent, amber for this week, green when there’s time.

Keep the receipt handy

Every purchase keeps its receipt photo, ready to show at the till. Pinch to zoom in on the small print, and search by item or store.

Private by design

No account, no adverts, no analytics and no tracking. Receipts are read on your phone, and Backsies doesn’t even have internet permission.

Made to be simple

Mark an item as returned and its reminders stop. Choose what time of day you’d like reminders.

Light and dark mode

Backsies follows your phone’s theme, so it’s easy on the eyes day or night.

No. Receipts are read on your phone and never uploaded. Backsies doesn’t have internet permission, so your information can’t leave your phone. See our Backsies Privacy Policy.

3 days before the last day to return an item, on the last day itself, and 30 days before a warranty ends. You can choose the time of day in Settings.

Because everything stays on your phone, Backsies’ data isn’t included in Android backups or copied to a new phone. Keep your old phone handy for any returns still due, or add those receipts again on the new one.
