Hi Alen and all,

Interesting idea!

I too would like a better way to capture transactions on my phone when
I'm on the go.

For me, it's not important to see balances or other reports on the
phone.  But it would be really great to have a quick way to enter data
at the moment that I make the transaction, so I don't have to carry the
receipt home (or remember the amount if I don't get a receipt).

Most of my daily transactions are in cash, so it's particularly
important to capture these things before I forget.

I have a separate file that defines my accounts for ledger's --strict
option.  It would be great to pass this file to an app so that it could
help me quickly select the right accounts to define the transaction.

The tricky part is then getting that data into a ledger file on my
computer.  I would be somewhat reluctant to trust yet another
third-party server for this.  It would be great if I could e.g. copy and
paste it from an email (or an IMAP-based "Note", available on iOS) on a
server I already have to trust, or if the app could briefly upload data
to a server I run from my local computer when I want to sync.
