Es ist nur noch möglich vorher die Fotos aufzunehmen und dann hochzuladen. Das ist extrem nervig und wird hoffentlich bald behoben. ### 2/5 — Can’t download currency rates *2026-02-16, version 3.4.1* Despite the option of being able to post transactions in different currencies you are unable to download the exchange rate so the tallied amounts end up being completely wrong. No way of contacting anyone despite the developer happily taking dollars for “premium” version ### 4/5 — Kategorien fehlen *2025-10-21* Grundsätzlich alles super übersichtlich, allerdings fehlt mir die Funktion Ausgaben in Kategorien einzuteilen. ### 4/5 — Only needs one more thing to be 5 star *2025-08-17, version 3.4.1* Very much like this app. The only thing holding me back from a five star rating is its usage of the Apple mail app. There doesn’t seem to be any way to override to either the Outlookmor Gmail apps ### 4/5 — Great app, but can’t download currencies. *2025-01-11, version 3.4.1* App does everything it claims, is easy to use, has a very good user interface. I have never been able to download currency rates. Can anyone help me? What should I do to get currencies downloaded? I have the premium version of the app. ### 5/5 — Very good! *2024-09-23* Love it! Simple and usefull! ### 5/5 — Best App for Cost Sharing *2024-09-09* Just love this app. So easy, convenient and quick. ### 5/5 — So easy! *2024-08-04, version 3.4.1* Since I’ve downloaded this app I am now the elected treasurer for all of our showers, bridal teas, etc. so easy to use! ### 3/5 — Can’t get premium version *2024-08-01, version 3.4.1* Loving this app but it will not connect to the App Store to upgrade to the premium version - which I need as we have more then 5 transactions. Ugh! ### 3/5 — Printing/sharing issues. *2024-06-20, version 3.4.1* We have the Premium version and are unable to print the recap or send via email. Also, we need to input a credit amount but can’t figure out how. Thanks ### 5/5 — Fantastic app *2024-02-10, version 3.4.1* I’ve been using this application for more than 6 years, it is really super easy and manageable way to split the cost between group members. With a beautiful feature to track expenses with different currencies. ### 3/5 — Pay out not calculating correctly *2024-01-22, version 3.4.1* I’m in love with this app, have used it on 6 group trips so far and designated the manager of find split even though I give everyone in the group access. However, on my last trip I noticed the pay out calculations were WAY OFF and made me wonder if I am relying on this too much. Would love to work with the creator bc I want to keep using this app!!! It at least did a great job of logging our expenses but dividing them after needs a thorough update!! ### 5/5 — Frieden auf der Reise *2023-12-14* Nirgends zerbricht eine Freundschaft so schnell, wie am Geld. Diese App dokumentiert jeden Cent, von jedem für jeden. Da bleibt nichts unklar und niemand muss komplizierte Hin- und Herrechnungen machen. Man muss einfach nur jede Ausgabe eintippeln. Fertig! Und am Ende auf Ausgleichszahlung klicken, damit ist auch das finanzielle einer gemeinsamen Reise abgeschlossen. Eine Bitte an den Entwickler: noch ein Werkzeug für Zwischensummen oder eine Endsumme einfügen, dann kann man mehrere Reisen separat verarbeiten. Danke! ### 5/5 — The best in class *2023-09-20, version 3.4.1* I’ve used this and the other main competitor app a lot and this app is far superior in my opinion. You are able to adjust expenses far easier and the reporting and summary is much better and the email reporting is excellent. ### 2/5 — Not working *2023-09-05, version 3.4.1* I have joined this app when my friend suggested it. I got to enter 2 transactions and that was all I was permitted. Now my friend has to add everything. Support button doesn’t work. Id like to try it properly but don’t feel I’ve had the chance ### 5/5 — User Friendly *2023-07-30* I have been using this App over 7 years. It is an excellent app to record group expenditures. I would strongly recommend this to everyone. ### 5/5 — Intuitive and makes sense *2023-07-10, version 3.4.1* This app is 👌👌👌each category and page makes sense. I’ve compared it to other apps. Everything is very streamline. I used it for a group of 7 people. Each expense can have a diff # people paying etc. the upgrade is also very inexpensive. Highly recommend. ### 4/5 — Almost there *2023-06-27, version 3.4.1* I love the app and use it for most vacations and family gatherings. For some reason the currency does not load. Very irritating as I am traveling with friends from the USA and we are in Europe and the UK. It would also be nice that when I enter an expense, the app assumes I am the person paying, or even better, let me choose the order. Please fix the currency thing ASAP. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I want to cancel my account *** *2024-01-16, version 3.4.1* How the heck do I cancel my premium account?! This app is charging me monthly but not showing up in my Apple purchases to cancel. The Cost Split app itself doesn’t give me the option to cancel and the website is useless. This is very frustrating & a money grab. ### 1/5 — Cannot see a way to cancel subscription *2023-11-13, version 3.4.1* I noted I’m on a premium account, I can’t see how that was paid for and how I make sure it is not charged again. It doesnt appear in my apple subscriptions list. Very odd.. now details on how to change the account in the app. ### 1/5 — Good idea but regularly doesn’t sync *2023-01-08, version 3.4.1* Nice simple idea but regularly doesn’t sync for expenses out in by someone else. Tells you it has updated but doesn’t. ### 1/5 — Useless unless you pay *2022-10-08, version 3.4.1* Why would you have an option for a free app for only 5 entries? Just be upfront and honest and charge for the app, instead of fooling people to download and then charge as soon as you start using it. ### 1/5 — Dead App, zero support. No excel exports *2022-09-26, version 3.4.1* This app is pretty much dead. Don’t look at the rating. You can’t get data exports to excel. Putting in dates retrospectively is a pain. Still using OG iOS slider method lol. Just don’t waste your money. ### 1/5 — Facebook graph ???!? *2021-09-27* Pourquoi est-ce que l’application se connecte à Facebook graph sans avoir jamais demandé l’autorisation ? Est-ce que l’accès aux contacts qui est donné pour pré remplir les e-mails sert à uploader les contacts vers Facebook sans autorisation ? L’accès à Facebook est devenu visible grâce à l’outil d’analyse de trafic fourni dans iOS 15 ### 1/5 — Used to be great *2021-07-11, version 3.4.1* I used to love this app for all the reasons mentioned by others. But a few years ago push notifications stopped working, the exchange rates no longer download and inquiries to support go unanswered. I think the app is no longer managed which is too bad, I haven't found an alternative with better features. But when the features don't work you have to move on. ### 1/5 — The email report doesn’t work *2020-10-07, version 3.4.1* And no one is replying to my question. Now I’m going to have to put it all into an excel myself as my friends understandably want to see the breakdown ### 1/5 — Bad one *2018-04-20, version 3.3.2* Only allows 4 free transactions to be entered ### 1/5 — Fishing *2016-04-21, version 3.2.4* 5 free expenses only. Then you have to pay. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Improvement *2025-11-28, version 3.4.1* Been using this app for over 5 years now. Its great, I just wanted to make a recommendation to add a search option so that people can search for a specific expense/transfer made a while back ### 5/5 — Will die on this hill; this is by far the best cost splitting app *2025-10-10, version 3.4.1* What the title says ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2025-09-21, version 3.4.1* I use this app every time I travel with friends. It make so much easier and also it’s a log of my expenses on my travels, I can always go back and retrieve what I spent and even where I ate if I input the name of the restaurant.. great resource ### 5/5 — Great app, need text option *2025-08-11, version 3.4.1* The app is simple, clean, and effective. I highly recommend it. The only challenge I have is that I use the Microsoft mail app and it won’t let me generate the summary reports (I assume it uses the iPhone mail app as the default). Including the Microsoft mail app it allowing a MMS report generation/ send option would help with that. ### 5/5 — So far, very useful *2025-08-07, version 3.4.1* I tried a few cost shearing apps and only this one, as far as I can tell, does it with option other apps do not offer. Recommended ### 5/5 — Excellent App *2025-05-07, version 3.4.1* I love the app. It’s so easy to share expenses for a trip or project. I have a suggestion, once everyone in the group has paid and they show zero there should be an option to change the group color, so I know that event is complete. ### 5/5 — Keep it up *2025-04-02* Fantastic app. Non of the other app matches what this app is giving. GUI and its export in excel like style. Keep the new update coming man. All the best. ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-01-18, version 3.4.1* This is a handy app that I use for all my group trips. I see on the “what was bought” there is a list of previously purchased items but only some, how can you change this list? ### 5/5 — Indispensable *2024-11-19, version 3.4.1* Incredible tool when you are out with or travel with friends!! ### 5/5 — Profoundly perfect *2024-10-11, version 3.4.1* This is the most organized, clear and concise app Ive ever used and the feature I love the most is the SEND THE REPORT by email which is not only done perfectly and easy for all parties to read, its beautiful, colorful and well laid out. The creator is my new app hero! Bravo. Wishes: I wish I could export the report as an excel file. Wish #2: Can you please write an equally simple and clear program for me to track my expenses, my contractors labor, fuel, etc. on the fly for my business? --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
