Never shortchange a friend again. Split Bill turns the most awkward part of any group hangout — settling up — into a ten-second job. Type the total, add your crew, and watch every share update live as you go. FAIR TO THE CENT Money splits perfectly whenever it can. When a bill won't divide evenly, Split Bill shows you exactly why, then lets you choose to round up or down to the nearest 5 cents — with both options shown side-by-side so nobody ever pays a cent more than anyone else. BUILT FOR REAL BILLS, NOT TEXTBOOK ONES - Custom amounts: lock in exactly what one person owes and let everyone else split the rest. - Personal extras: someone ordered dessert? Add their extra charge on top of their even share — it never touches what anyone else owes. - Receipt photos: attach a snap of the receipt to every split you save. - PayID built in: add your PayID once in Settings and it's automatically included every time you text someone their share, so they know exactly where to send the money. NEVER RETYPE THE SAME NAMES TWICE Save your regular crew — housemates, the Friday dinner group, whoever — as a Template. Next time: pick the template, type the total, done. The people are already there. YOUR HISTORY, YOUR RECEIPT Every split is saved with a full itemized breakdown: who owes what, the bill total, and how rounding was applied. Revisit any past split and text a reminder straight from the record. 100% ON YOUR DEVICE Split Bill has no server, no account, and no sign-up screen — because it doesn't need one. Every bill, every template, every PayID detail stays stored locally on your phone. Nothing is uploaded, tracked, or shared with anyone you didn't choose to text. No ads, no data collection, no catch. DESIGNED, NOT JUST BUILT A dark, glass-panel interface with a bold gradient accent — built to feel as premium as the bill you just paid. Split it fair. Split it fast. Never do the math twice.
