Technically you can use any tablet that has internet access but we highly recommend iPads simply because certain Android devices only allow you to upload one photo at a time which can be time consuming. iPads allow multiple uploads and we always recommend an iPad mini which you can then add through your expenses. However if you do have an Android device then another option is to use Dropbox to upload multiple photos.

Any iPhone with iOS 10+ or an Android phone with operating system 7+ will allow you to use the app on any of our standard or premium packages.
