The short version
CoinKeeper is a mobile expense tracker with unlimited accounts in any currency on its free plan, automatic rates and bank import for Russian banks. Its pages do not describe a transfer between two currencies or receipt scanning. Balans.finance records such a transfer with both amounts, imports statements from Bank of Georgia, TBC Bank and other banks, and reads receipts with AI.
