Can I log an expense without opening Pockito?

Yes. On iPhone you can tell Siri, tap a Home Screen or Lock Screen widget, or use a Control Center button. On Android, three Quick Settings tiles open the voice, scan or manual entry straight away. Control Center buttons and Quick Settings tiles are free. Siri counts toward automatic tracking: a few each period on Free, no limit with Pro.

Questions

Why does Siri say it can't log?

Either this period's free automatic tracking is used up, and Pro removes that limit, or Pockito has not been opened since it was installed. Open it once, then try again.
