- Save this receipt to your camera roll.
Keep the receipt file too. The image is a handy copy; checking needs the file.

How to keep notes that hold up
Write notes as soon as you can. Keep the original account rather than replacing it later; the venue decides what weight it gets.
- Write it down straight away, on paper or in the box on a step.
- Put the date, time and place at the top, and who you spoke to.
- Use their words where you can; separate what you saw from what you were told.
- Sign or initial a paper note, photograph it and add the photo.
- Never edit an old note. Add a new dated entry when something changes. A device save time is not independent time evidence or proof of event order.

Proves / Doesn’t prove
Proves
A completed time receipt shows that the exact selected file existed by the independently witnessed time. You can check whether a later copy has the same bytes. It does not establish creation time, authorship, identity, event order, location or the truth of the contents.
Doesn’t prove
It does not prove who wrote or signed the letter, that the money actually moved, that the donor intended a gift, or how a lender, tax authority or court will decide.
A date cannot establish genuine signatures, a transfer, a gift rather than a loan, or a legal or tax outcome.
These are the bounds of a completed proof. The local tester does not establish any time. The chosen court, scheme or regulator decides what to accept.
Questions, answered plainly.
Your file stays on your device. During normal receipt creation, your device sends a randomized code made from its fingerprint, plus encrypted recovery data. It doesn't send the plain fingerprint or the random value that opens the code. Keep the original file and the complete receipt for checking. Privacy Policy.

Context for this answerDoes a time receipt replace the lender's gift letter?

Context for this answerWhat proof of transfer do lenders accept?
Typically a copy of the donor's check and your deposit slip, a withdrawal slip and deposit slip, or an electronic transfer record to your account or the closing agent.

Context for this answerCan a relative later say my gift was a loan?
They can claim it. Courts look at what was written when the money moved; in recent family cases, loan claims backed only by paperwork made after a falling out failed.
