### 4/5 — Great app but could use improvements

*2025-08-03, version 4.0.7*

I have used this for years for trips with friends.  I agree with other comments that the UI is a bit funky. Handling currency changes is confusing, and they could definitely use a “percent share” option for unbalanced expenses.  E.g., 3 people where one person eats only an appetizer, we want to split 40/40/20% (same with having two couples and a single person).  Instead you have to fill in actual amounts and the last amount is filled in to complete the tab. The “Even Up” button is the best part, showing all net payments due so far.  Device (iCloud) synchronization is really needed!

### 4/5 — Great app

*2025-05-03, version 4.0.7*

Just wish that there was a sign in option so I could sync and use on my computer:

### 3/5 — ใส่รูปในอัลบัมไม่ได้

*2025-01-07, version 4.0.7*

ข้อจำกันเยอะเกินไป นททจะใส่รูปในอัลบัมได้
น่าจะ tag ใส่สถานที่ในแผนที่ได้เลย

### 5/5 — Great App - Wish It Was More Robust

*2022-11-15, version 4.0.6*

Overall great app and I’ve used it for years amongst friends. The currency setup/conversion is a bit confusing and I wish there were some UX enhancements and that this was cloud based and could be shared across multiple users. Have used this app for groups as small as 2 to 15 people. It definitely is a bit harder to use with larger groups but still works fine.

### 5/5 — Go to travel app

*2022-07-13, version 4.0.6*

I use tripsplitter on every trip with other people. It works great and everyone appreciates me keeping track of all the expenses.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-05-26, version 4.0.6*

This app is a life saver and time saver.

### 4/5 — Good app but additional features would be great

*2021-05-22, version 4.0.6*

Can’t figure out how to change currency default permanently. Can I share with other trip goers?  Easy to use. Have used plenty!!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2020-09-26*

I use it for every trip

### 3/5 — Great App!

*2019-10-10*

Great app but desperately needs an update. Names are misaligned with colour boxes for the people they represent. This happened since iOS 13. Please update!

### 5/5 — So amazing!

*2019-09-28, version 4.0.3*

This app makes it so easy to keep track of expenses on trips. I love everything about it and it takes the stress out of the money part of a trip. 

The only thing that could make it better would be if two people could have the same info on multiple phones without having to input it twice. I understand that this could be more complicated which might be why it hasn’t been done.

### 5/5 — very usefull app.

*2019-09-01, version 4.0.3*

I have been using this app for 3 trips with other peoples, it’s simply what we needed! Well done app easy to use and very convenient. 

Highly recommanded if you want to track and see how much the trip cost!

### 5/5 — Great user interface

*2019-08-25, version 4.0.3*

Quick and easy to use. Makes the craziness of group travel a bit easier. I've only used with a small group splitting cost among 3 families so I don't know how it would be with several more parties splitting the cost but we LOVED it!

### 5/5 — Great for travelling

*2019-06-30, version 4.0.3*

Really useful app
Been using it for last 4 years on various trips with family and friends
No confusion and no fights at end of holiday!!

### 5/5 — Great App!!!

*2019-05-03, version 4.0.3*

I love this app! It is easy to input expenses during a trip with plenty of detailed information. The app clearly tracks expenses by day, by category (gas, lodging, food, etc) and by traveler so that it is easy to settle/even up at the end of the trip. The app also creates simple reports to email from within the app to all travelers included in the trip expenses.  Thank you for creating and maintaining this app.

### 1/5 — No support.

*2026-03-08, version 4.0.8*

I asked a question two weeks ago. No service, no answer, no support

### 1/5 — This was a great app

*2019-12-31, version 4.0.5*

It won’t let me make any new trips and so it’s useless. Shame because it was so handy.

### 1/5 — Refund

*2019-12-13, version 4.0.5*

Please refund my money. This app does not work at all!!!!!

### 1/5 — App Not working at all

*2019-12-07, version 4.0.5*

App Not working at all

### 1/5 — Great idea if it works!

*2019-10-22, version 4.0.3*

I used it several times  but it crashed and lost all my data on a subsequent trip.  Could you possible add a back-up feature to avoid this?

Now having problems with iOS 13.1.2. Program does not work properly.

### 1/5 — Review

*2019-10-11, version 4.0.3*

This app is not free so it should work.    It does not selecting a currency is not possible.   It also is more than difficult to enter from an iPhone.   Like most apps it’s difficult to tell what you are buying.  I’ve used other expense splitting apps.   I’d stay away from this one. —- oh yea.  I am an auditor so know what is good and bad.  This is bad

### 1/5 — Awful

*2014-02-27, version 3.0.5*

It's a piece is shi*! I want my money back! 2 dollars for this app that doesn't work! The splitter works like a piece of crap. I lost too much time and in the end the numbers were all wrong!

### 1/5 — Completely useless

*2013-10-29, version 3.0.3*

Bought this app with roommates to split incidental bills and have not used it once.  

You shouldn't need multiple 8-page instruction sequences to figure out how to use an app solely designed to do basic math.

### 2/5 — SO DISAPPOINTED-Great App when working

*2016-11-12, version 4.0.1*

The app is now totally useless! Doing by if until the bug are fixed in 4.0.1.

I've been using this app for some time on my iPhone. Be sure to watch the video to learn how to use it. it's a great app when it works.

I'm really frustrated with the new pop up window when trying to create a new trip, asking if I want to give access to my contacts. I already set it up NOT to access them. 

The pop up window comes on the iPhone screen with the keyboard, which overlaps the pop up. There is NO WAY to get rid of the keyboard. So, now I can not click on the pop up.
The app is now totally useless! And there's no way I could find to file a bug report.

### 2/5 — Used to be a great app

*2015-12-18, version 3.0.10*

Currency change is broken. At times the UI breaks on iPhone 6. Still use the app but international usage is highly affected it.

### 5/5 — Great with multiple currencies

*2026-03-11, version 4.0.8*

I wanted to add to my previous review that it converts to multiple currencies within the same trip! Siper useful with my traveling
Abroad especially that I travel lots!!!

### 5/5 — Great ap

*2025-09-12, version 4.0.7*

Easy to use, works perfectly and makes complicated accounting for shared trips effortless

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2024-10-19*

Using it for years, it is a very handy app when you travel w friends or family that’s paying separately. It accommodates anyone to pay for anybody and final transaction is between least number of people.  Easy to use and best part is customer service is excellent. If the app doesn’t work properly, you can email them and you will get a prompt reply.

### 5/5 — Truly one of the best apps ever!!!

*2024-04-28, version 4.0.7*

I just came back from a 9-day trip to Paris with 5 friends (2 couples and 2 singles). The Trip Splitter app was the PERFECT way to keep track of everything we spent in UDS and Euros. I can’t put a value on how much time, effort, and stress the app saved us!!! THANK YOU!!!

### 5/5 — Must have for group travel

*2024-01-06, version 4.0.7*

I’ve been using this app for more than 10 years now, and it is a must have for travel with friends and family. It makes it easy to track/split out costs, even with multiple currencies within one trip. The only downside is that it depends on one person, being the keeper of the expenses, rather than sharing a trip with all the travelers to update as you go.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-10-08, version 4.0.7*

We tried several apps, and this one served our needs perfectly on a road trip around the UK.   It was very easy to use for sharing expenses.  Then,  the ability to email those detailed expenses as the trip progressed kept everyone in the loop on a regular basis. 

Additional items I would like to see:  
1.  Ability to select icons to be used for each new trip setup
2.  Change the “Gas pump” icon to a car so it can be used for anything related to Automotive - Gas, Rental car, Car park fees, Road/bridge tolls etc.
3.  Icon for Entrance/Admission tickets or fees

### 5/5 — Simply and useful

*2023-09-02, version 4.0.7*

I have been using it for about 5 years now and found out to be simply to use convenient and useful.

### 5/5 — Vraiment intelligent!

*2023-08-17, version 4.0.7*

Je l’utilise toujours pour mes voyages à deux ou en groupe, très simple et évite de passer du temps à calculer sur un bout de papier.

### 5/5 — Impressive!!!

*2023-06-03, version 4.0.7*

Best way to manage splitting expenses during your trip.  5 Star.
The reports are very detailed and well presented.
Suggestions:  should consider the options of languages for each trip.  Define currency exchange rates in batches or for the whole trip.

### 5/5 — Love the app…needs a calculator

*2023-04-04, version 4.0.7*

I’ve used this app for years.  It’s super simple and provides nice documentation.   Wish the money part had a calculator so one needn’t exit to get to a calc. Write down the amount and type it in again.
