Expensify.org/hunger SNAP campaign status
The number of families signing up for reimbursement has vastly outnumbered the limited funds available. Though we’re unable to provide a specific timeline on when your report will be reimbursed, we’re doing our best to drive donations and keep reimbursements moving forward. Rest assured, we’ll review every report that has been submitted per our instructions.
We're no longer accepting new participants as our focus is on reimbursing existing claims. Additionally, as of July 1, 2020, we will no longer accept new report submissions from existing policy members. Thanks for your understanding!
If you know anyone who can donate to this campaign please direct them to Expensify.org/donate.
We're currently experiencing issues with our American Express and Capital One connections. Please visit our status page for more details and to subscribe to updates.
GPS mileage tracking through the mobile app is on hold

Expensify has offered the ability to record GPS mileage tracking in the Expensify Android and iOS apps since 2012. In that time, we’ve made improvements, including recent major investments that entirely overhauled our GPS tracking.
However, we’ve learned that most customers prefer to track their mileage after their trips (thus not needing to hit that start button!). In addition, there are unavoidable technical limitations to GPS tracking and to our integration with Google Maps, which means that the longest trips will be the least accurate.
As a result, we’re putting development of GPS mileage tracking through Expensify’s mobile apps on hold. That means that we’re not likely to improve or fix issues with that method of mileage tracking in the near future.
If you rely on mileage tracking for longer distances, we recommend you create your mileage expenses via the Google Maps integration in the web app (Expenses > New Expense > Create from Map), and for customers based in the UK to use our partner Tripcatcher.
If we’re able to find options that make GPS tracking through our mobile app more reliable, we’ll update this post.

This is disappointing to hear. This was one of the main reasons we went with Expensify in the first place.

As I mentioned, we'll post again if we're able to find other options here.
