## What is Chiipin?

Chiipin splits two kinds of money: the dinner you just paid for, and the bills that come back every month. New in this version: a calculator keypad for every amount, so you can add things up as you type them.

SPLIT ANY BILL - FREE
- Evenly, by exact amounts, or item by item
- Tax and tip handled properly, not estimated
- Scan a receipt and Chiipin reads the items for you
- Or say it out loud and let it fill the bill in
- See who owes what, and settle up with the fewest payments possible
- Groups for trips, dinners, and anything else shared
- One household, with its first recurring bill - set your rent up once and let it come back
- Widgets for the Home Screen, Lock Screen and Control Center, and a button that opens a new bill

WHAT THE HOUSE KEEPS - FREE
- Shared storage: what you have, how much is left, and who needs to buy more
- Mark something running low or out and the rest of the household is told
- Put the date from the packet on anything that has one, and choose how much warning you want
- Scan a barcode to find something you already have, or to add something you do not
- Read a product name off the packet instead of typing it, or let Apple Intelligence fill in the name, brand and size at once
- Pick what you are out of and Chiipin writes the shopping bill for you
- After that bill is split, put what you bought back in storage without typing it again
- See what a thing has cost you every time, how often you buy it, and roughly what that is a month

FOR PEOPLE WHO SHARE A HOME - CHIIPIN PRO
- Every recurring bill after the first: utilities, internet, parking, the variable ones
- More than one household, for a place you moved to or still share
- Split by who actually lived there, so a month someone was away is a month they do not pay for
- Move-out statements when someone leaves
- Search every bill by name, note, item, or who paid
- Spending reports by category and by month
- CSV export of your bills and settlements
- Your own categories, and photos for your profile and your groups
- In storage: more than five categories to file things under, a photo of the real thing instead of an icon, and barcodes on more than three items

PRIVACY
Receipt scanning runs on your device. A receipt it cannot read on its own is handled by Apple's Private Cloud Compute, which does not store it. The picture never reaches us.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.12 — 2026-10-19

TYPING AMOUNTS

- Every amount opens a calculator keypad: add up two receipts, or a price times a quantity, right in the field. The bill keeps the total.
- Percent works the way the Calculator app does, so a tip is one key: 80 + 15% is 92.
- On iPad the keypad opens beside the amount instead of across the screen.

GESTURES

- Swipe sideways on the Split tab to move between Groups and Household.
- The first time you reach a gesture nothing on the screen shows, like changing the calendar's month, arranging Storage or a group's shortcuts, a hand shows you how.

### 1.0.11 — 2026-10-15

A NEW LOOK

- Every page has been redrawn: Home, groups, the household, Settle, bills, Profile, storage and contacts.
- Cards take their colour from where you stand, so money coming back and money you owe are easy to tell apart.
- Everyone has their own colour, so a row of faces is easy to tell apart.
- Widgets match the app.

YOUR HOME

- Home shows only the blocks with something to do, in the order you choose.
- Make each block half or full width, and show it only when needed or always.

AT A GLANCE

- Group and household pages open with one figure - what you get back or pay in all - and who to settle with.
- Bill rows show the name and total, who paid and when, and where you stand: unpaid, awaiting confirmation, paid or all collected.
- A bill's page says what it means for you and how much has come back.

WHERE TO PAY

- Someone you owe shows their ways to be paid right under their name, each with a copy button.
- The members list does too, instead of an email address.
- In a household, housemates always see each other's ways to be paid: tap the faces at the top of the household.

REMINDERS

- Someone owes you? Tap the bell beside them on Settle, in a group or in the household to send a reminder.
- Each reminder says it a little differently. One a day per person, so nobody gets flooded.
- For someone without the app, share what they owe as a message instead.

CONTACTS

- Add someone by picking them from your iPhone's contacts, then text them an invite made for them. When they accept it, they link to that contact.
- Add anyone from a group or household to your contacts with one tap.
- Saved the same person twice? Combine the two into one contact.

PRIVACY

- Other people's sign-in emails no longer appear anywhere in the app.

ALSO

- Any scanner reads any invite code: a group's opens joining it, a friend's adds them.
- A new account starts in your region's currency instead of US dollars.

### 1.0.10 — 2026-10-07

IPHONE DUO

- On iPhone Duo's inner display, Chiipin lays out in two columns that meet at the fold: your balance and what needs attention on one side, your household and groups on the other.
- Settle and Split keep their list beside the page you open.

PEOPLE WITHOUT THE APP

- Add friends who don't use Chiipin to a group by name, and split bills with them like anyone else.
- When they pay you back, the person they paid records it.
- Share what they owe as a message.
- If they join later with the group's invite link, they pick their name and the bills become theirs.

A BILL WITH FRIENDS

- Friends over for dinner? In the household, choose "Bill with friends", tick the housemates who came, add the friends, and record the bill as usual.
- What housemates owe each other is settled with the household's monthly bills; friends settle with whoever paid.
- Already writing a bill? "Add people" at the end of "Who's in" brings friends into a household bill, or new members into a group's, and nothing you typed is lost.

AFTER APPLE PAY

- Pay with Apple Pay and iPhone can offer to add it to Chiipin. Tap the notification and a new bill opens with the amount, the currency and the shop already filled in.
- Get the shortcut in Profile › Siri, then turn on its automation in Shortcuts. Requires iOS 27.
- Siri now asks what a bill was for, so bills added by voice are no longer all called "Bill".
- In Shortcuts, the two bill actions are now called Quick add a bill and Open a new bill, so they are easy to tell apart.

### 1.0.9 — 2026-10-03

SETTLE UP

- Pay part of what you owe. A part payment clears the oldest bills first; the bill it runs out on is marked paid, and the rest becomes a bill of its own, linked back to it.
- The settle-up sheet leads with what the payment settles, and the bills behind it follow.
- Settle up is a solid button only where you pay; where you are being paid, it is lighter.
- A person's balance in each group shows in that group's own currency.

HOUSEHOLD

- The household page starts with what is still unsettled across every month, including what housemates owe each other, with settle up right there.
- The month's figure says how much is not due yet, so it adds up with the calendar.
- Home and the household page point to the same next bill, skipping ones already overdue.
- A housemate's payment on an earlier month's bill shows on Home for you to confirm, and opens that month.

HOME

- The balance card shows what you're owed and what you owe side by side.
- Section titles have icons, overdue items show in red, and the household bar marks what is overdue.
- Restock reminders keep expiring items apart from what is running out.

CURRENCIES

- Totals across groups in different currencies are converted to your currency at today's rate, with a line saying what was converted.

NOTIFICATIONS

- Tapping a notification opens the bill in its month, the storage item, or the payment waiting for you.
- A settle-up notification opens Settle on that person's row.
- A payment reminder from a contact now arrives as a notification and says who sent it.

FIXES

- Following the system language goes back to your phone's language after another was picked.
- The household widget's month total matches the household page.
- A recurring bill could be created twice when the household was opened at the same moment from two places.
- Long group names are no longer cut short in the group list.

### 1.0.8 — 2026-09-30

SCAN

- One Scan button for everything: point it at a receipt, a barcode or the name on a packet, and it works out which it is.
- Receipts read more accurately. The items are checked against the printed subtotal, and a receipt that doesn't add up is read again, more carefully.
- A scanned receipt's lines show on New bill, with a check that they add up to the total. Shop names come without branch numbers, and item names in ordinary case.
- Lines sold by weight keep their weight and price per kilo.

CARDS & ACCOUNTS

- Keep your own cards and accounts, and say which one paid a bill, the rent or a payment. Only you can see them.
- A receipt that prints the card's last four digits picks that card for you.
- Each card lists what it paid, month by month, and Reports adds up what went on each card.

STORAGE

- After a bill, putting what you bought into storage is a checklist of its lines, with their prices.
- A barcode fills in the product's name, brand, size and photo from Open Food Facts.
- Each item shows the lowest price you have paid, and what it costs at each shop.

BILLS

- A split bill can be deleted until someone has paid towards it; the others are told what they no longer owe.
- Bills show their category's icon.
- Changing a bill's date moves it to that day.
- On a wide iPad window, New bill and the storage form open in two columns.

HOUSEHOLD

- A move-out statement lists the leaver's share of any deposit still held.
- Marking rent paid asks which card paid it.

ACCOUNT

- Sign out of all devices from your profile, for a lost phone. It also stops notifications to every device.
- You stay signed in for 30 days, and no longer get signed out every day or two.
- See the people you have blocked, and unblock them.

FIXES

- A first load that fails shows a retry instead of an empty page.
- Buttons in confirmation dialogs are readable again.
