Split the Bill

After the trip or the dinner: "so who owes what, in the end?" A split calculator that takes on the arithmetic, and nothing awkward. - Just record who covered what - Who paid, and how much - Add the people, then add the payments - A simple settle-up - A list in the form "Alex hands Sam 12.00" - The hand-overs are worked out so there are as few of them as possible - Tap one to mark it done, and tap again to undo it - The result copies out as text you can paste into a chat - The money happens outside the app - This app cannot send or process money. It calculates and records - The handing over itself is up to you, in cash or however you usually do it - Made to be safe to use - Everything stays inside this device only (nothing is sent anywhere) - No ads - Free to use Only the arithmetic, so nobody has to bring it up.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Split the Bill at none against YI Home's 10. Split the Bill also leads on ads (none vs shown). YI Home's advantage is chart position (#164 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
