Reads photos and receipts

GPS decides which photos are travel and groups them into trips. Optional OCR reads receipts for amounts, merchants, and GST — Australian 1/11 fallback included. Dedupes bursts, drops photos from other people that snuck in via shared iCloud libraries.

Real exports

Spreadsheet CSV, HTML travel journal with photos and maps, per-visit relocation log, interactive map. Not just a screen — files you can send.

How it works

Point Docket Pocket at a Photos album or a range of dates. For each photo it reads GPS and date, then decides whether you were travelling based on how far you went from home. Tick Scan photos for receipt data if you want the receipts OCR'd too — amounts, merchants, and GST are extracted on the spot. You review the result in a table, correct anything the algorithm got wrong, and export what your accountant needs.

Setup screen: 5,628 photos ready to process with an optional 'Scan photos for receipt data' toggle and a Process Album button. — **1. Pick your source.** An album or a date range. Choose whether to OCR the receipt text or just detect travel from GPS.

Export sheet showing seven output options: CSV, Travel Journal HTML, Map PNG, Interactive Map HTML, Visits Journal HTML, Visits CSV, Photo Audit CSV. — **2. Export what you need.** Spreadsheet, travel journal with photos and map, per-visit relocation log, interactive map, or photo audit for diagnostics.

Made in Australia

Built for Australian sole traders, tradies, freelancers, and small-business owners who take photos of receipts and travel with their iPhone. At tax time, Docket Pocket turns that year of photos into the records your accountant actually wants — a spreadsheet of travel-related receipts with GST, a photo-illustrated trip journal, and a map showing where you went. Australian GST is calculated on the 1/11 fallback where the receipt doesn't spell it out. Docket Pocket organises your records — it isn't tax software and doesn't provide tax advice.
