Set Up Daytab Shortcuts

Install the fastest way to log expenses in Daytab, then optionally connect Apple Wallet transaction automations to save card taps automatically.

What Daytab Shortcuts Let You Do

Quick Log

Use Daytab's main manual shortcut when you want expense entry one tap, two taps, or one phrase away.

  • Open Daytab logging fast.
  • Works well with Back Tap.
  • Easy to place on the Action Button or Home Screen.
  • Can be triggered with Siri.

Wallet Auto-Log

Connect an Apple Wallet automation to Daytab so card taps can save into the app with less manual work.

  • Uses the Wallet details Apple currently exposes in Automation.
  • Can auto-save an expense without opening the app manually.
  • Best when you want Daytab to stay mostly in the background.

Install the Log Expense Shortcut

This imports the exact Daytab shortcut used for fast manual logging.

  1. Tap Install Log Expense Shortcut.
  2. Add the shortcut in Apple Shortcuts.
  3. Run it once so iOS fully registers it.
  4. Use the share sheet in Shortcuts to place it where it feels fastest.

Best Places to Assign It

Back Tap

Great if you want Daytab two taps away from anywhere.

Action Button

Best if you want expense logging one press away.

Home Screen

Useful if you prefer a visible shortcut tile.

Siri

Good when you want to log a spend hands-free.

Try saying: "Log expense in Daytab."

Set Up Apple Wallet Auto-Log

If you want Daytab to feel almost invisible, set this up from the Automation tab in Apple's Shortcuts app. Do not start from the normal Shortcuts tab, because the Wallet details Daytab needs will not appear there.

  1. Open Apple's Shortcuts app.
  2. Tap Automation at the bottom.
  3. Create a new personal automation.
  4. Choose the Wallet Transaction trigger you want to use.
  5. Add a new action.
  6. Search for Daytab.
  7. Choose Log Wallet Transaction.
  8. Set Amount to Amount, Merchant to Merchant, and Details to Name.
  9. Leave Date and Currency blank if Apple does not show them.
  10. Turn off extra confirmation prompts if you want the smoothest flow.
  11. Save the automation.

How Daytab Handles Auto-Logged Wallet Transactions

When this automation runs, Daytab creates the expense automatically using the Wallet details passed in by Shortcuts.

Daytab uses Amount, Merchant, and Name when available, tries to infer a category from the merchant or details, uses your default wallet, and falls back to its normal date and currency defaults when Apple does not provide them.

Good Uses

  • Coffee
  • Commuting
  • Lunch
  • Dinner
  • Card purchases
  • Daily small spending

Things to Know

  • Some merchants may arrive with unclear names from the card or Wallet feed.
  • Category inference is best-effort, not perfect.
  • Automation options can vary by iPhone model, iOS version, bank, and region.
  • You can still edit saved expenses in Daytab afterward.

Fastest Recommendation

Use Log Expense when you want the fastest manual entry point.

Use Wallet Auto-Log when you want the most seamless background logging flow.
