How can i turn the sound off completely on the app, the sound it makes during reciept capture makes me want to suck start a shotgun.

Hi there, quigley-sj-outlo.

Welcome to the Community. I'll provide information about the sound when taking a photo of a receipt.

The sound settings during capturing a receipt in the QuickBooks app is a default in the system. Thus, turning this off within the program is unavailable. As a workaround, you can adjust the volume of your device. Please note that this may also affect other features on your phone such as not hearing sounds or alerts from other apps.

You can click this article to see information about the mobile app settings in QuickBooks: Get the most out of your Settings in QuickBooks Online for mobile.

Please refer to this article on how you can attach, and track expense receipts and bills you capture with your phone or email to QuickBooks: Capture and categorise receipts and bills.

I'd suggest visiting our QuickBooks Blog to know about the latest news and updates from QuickBooks Online.

Turning down the device volume DOES NOT turn off or turn down the sound. Been thru this already. Why don't these people try this before they answer.
