### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-02-14*

I love this app! I’ve tried many bill sharing apps, and this one is the BEST I’ve seen! Many other apps are too limited, are confusing, or can only split a bill evenly. This one can split evenly or figure out each person’s share, based on what they ordered. It’s easy to use and fast! The option to scan a receipt saves time, too. And you can still make changes, corrections, or additions to the scanned input.

I highly recommend this app!

### 5/5 — Huge time saver the day after a group meal

*2025-11-27*

Seamless and easy to use for splitting a large dinner party where we had to pay on one card. Would recommend to anyone.

### 5/5 — Very handy

*2025-02-28, version 2.4.1*

Saves a lot of time splitting bill and sends an itemized list to people

### 5/5 — Amazing app!!

*2025-02-23*

My close personal friend recommended this app, such an easy way to split meals!

### 5/5 — Simple and Great!

*2025-02-17*

This free app is simple to use, everything you need to properly split a group dinner bill. Thank you!!

### 5/5 — The perfect splitting bill app

*2024-11-04*

Easy to use and perfect for splitting the entire check without leaving anything out. Will continue to use this every time I need to split a bill!

### 5/5 — Simple, truly free, excellent

*2024-06-10*

Simple straightforward app, no predatory subscription model like Splyt, no bugs, customizable tax and tip. Just a great simple app overall.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2024-05-29*

App works like a charm! My favorite way to manage splitting bills with friends after a night out

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2024-05-26*

Forkit is a poor euphemism for the creators name, a comical metaphor for the creator’s narcissism

### 4/5 — works great as calculator but needs improvement in ui

*2023-12-03*

1/ need to have a history feature for transactions 
2/ need to send the whole cost breakdown via text not just everything except “you”
3/ need to have ability to highlight which lines are actually something to split because it regularly adds tip and total which could be avoided with an intermediate verification screen where you can draw circles around the items section of the receipt
4/ should have the option to also send the photo of the recipient via text
5/ should have an option to choose whether tip is pre or post tax

great app will continue to use but these 5 new feature requests would make it 5 stars

thanks!

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you very much for your feedback! We have officially added separate settings to send the “you” amount and the actual receipt image to the summary text. We’re currently looking into adding the history feature as well. Thank you again for making Forkit better with your feedback!
