Chiipin takes a get-together from invitation to settled up. Plan an event, share a link, see who is coming, and split the bill afterwards. It also keeps the bills that come back every month. PLAN AN EVENT - Birthdays, dinners, trips and anything else you get people together for - Send an invitation as a poster or a card; friends reply from the link, with no account - Guest list, waitlist, polls for the date or place, and updates to everyone who replied - Public events: share them with anyone, or find ones near you - Carpool with seats and an agreed cost - Check people in at the door with a QR code - Split the bill with the people who came 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.

Friends reply from the link, with no account. - Guest list, waitlist, polls for the date or place, and updates for everyone who replied. - Make an event public, or browse public events nearby. Hosts can approve who joins. - Carpool: offer seats or take one, with the cost agreed first. - Check people in at the door with a QR code. - When it is over, split the bill with the people who came. ADDING THINGS - The + is now a menu: group bill, household bill, event or storage item. ALSO - Paywall, colors and text are easier to read. ### 1.0.13 — 2026-10-26 BILLS - Tap a bill and its page opens, growing out of the row. - A bill's page puts who still owes first, with a tick beside each person. - The receipt reads like a till slip, and prints out the first time you open a new bill. - Each way of paying has its own sound as a bill is added. Turn it off under Sounds in Profile. - Settling up prints a receipt with a stamp, and tapping your balance takes you to Settle up. HOUSEHOLD - Each repeating bill has a page of its own, with the days it pays for and its earlier periods. - Tap the circle beside a housemate to mark their share paid, with a moment to undo it. - Rows show who paid, with their face. STORAGE - Pick a category and a place from chips, and the count sits on the picture's corner. - Scanning comes first when you add an item. ### 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. ## Apps similar to Chiipin | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [UniSplit: Group Bill Split](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/unisplit-group-bill-split/id6759951086) | — | Free | Finance | | [Splitr: Split Bills in Seconds](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/splitr-split-bills-in-seconds/id6761443209) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Finance | | [TravelWise : Spending Tracker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/travelwise-spending-tracker/id6754800084) | 5.0 (2) | Free | Finance | | [Car Cost Tracker: CarKeeperHK](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/car-cost-tracker-carkeeperhk/id6767472997) | — | Free | Finance | | [Crew — Split Rent and Chores](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/crew-split-rent-and-chores/id6745403079) | — | Free | Finance | | [FairShare: AI Bill Splitter](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/fairshare-ai-bill-splitter/id6767465050) | — | Free | Finance | --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
