Every change, in plain words.

Run more than one business from a single account.

• New

  More than one business

  Add up to 5 businesses and switch between them by tapping the name at the top of Home. Each one keeps its own customers, Cash Book, bank, expenses and backups.

• Fixed

  Google Drive backup stays connected

  Drive backup no longer fails with “Google couldn’t confirm your account” after an update. It reconnects to your Google account by itself.

• New

  Easy updates

  When a new version is ready, Munshi offers it inside the app on Android, or takes you to the App Store on iPhone.

• Improved

  Made for every business

  Munshi now says “business” instead of “shop”, and the sign-in screen shows the app version so we can help you faster.

Munshi stays free for everyone, with a few small ads.

• New

  Munshi stays free, with a few ads

  Small ads marked “Ad” now pay for our servers, so offline use, many phones, Drive backup and reports stay free for everyone. Ads never appear while you add an entry, sign in or send a reminder, and your khata is never shared with advertisers.

• Improved

  Statements and reports

  A PDF of this month or last month is free. Longer dates and Excel files open after a short ad you choose to watch; those buttons are marked “Ad”.

• Improved

  Long lists open faster

  Customers, entries, Cash Book, bank and expense lists now show 10 rows at a time and load more as you scroll.

• Fixed

  Google Drive backup fixed

  Connecting your Google account for Drive backup works again. If Google can’t confirm your account, Munshi now tells you what to do instead of doing nothing.

Look after your books more easily.

• New

  Look after your customers

  Fix a name or number, pin favourites, archive settled accounts, and pick a number straight from your contacts.

• New

  Set dates for many at once

  In Reminders, choose several customers and set one collection date for all of them. You can undo it.

• Safety

  Deleted by mistake? Get it back

  Cash Book, Bank and Expense entries now go to the Recycle bin for 14 days, just like Ledger entries.

• Improved

  Works better on a weak connection

  Add a photo or voice note without a connection: the entry is saved at once and the attachment goes later. Backups carry on even if one kind of record cannot be read, and the app opens faster with App Lock on.

• New

  Reports for any dates

  See your Cash Book, bank accounts, expenses and profit, and share them as PDF or Excel. Customer and bank statements can use any dates too.

• Safety

  Safer App Lock

  Your PIN is now stored more securely, Munshi waits a little after too many wrong tries, and your khata is hidden in the app switcher while the lock is on.

• Improved

  Easier to use, easier to get help

  Press and hold a customer to pin, edit, archive or delete. Settings is reordered and has FAQs, Support, the privacy policy and terms. Press back twice to leave the app.

Smoother and more reliable.

• Fixed

  Fixed crashes

  Crashes on the Customer, Add entry and Settings screens are fixed.

• Fixed

  Sign-in problems fixed

  Some people were sent back to the login screen. That no longer happens.

• Improved

  Clearer photo uploads

  If a photo can’t upload on a weak connection, you now see a clear message and your entry stays open.

• Improved

  Faster start-up

  Munshi opens faster and more dependably, with small fixes to screens and text.

A fresh, simpler Munshi.

• New

  One-tap You gave / You got
