Your assistant to quick & fair bill splitting. The app calculates "who ate how much" and generates a report "who owes to whom?". Common situation: - A group of friends went on a week-long trip. They took turns paying the expenses, because it was more convenient. And they decided to settle up when they got home.... - After a wonderful evening with friends someone had to pay the bill. The payment was successful and everyone took a taxi. And you decided to settle up “later”... Fairsplit helps to settle up in this case. Just scan the bill with a photo, assign items to persons and choose who paid the bill. Then you will see a list of settlements — how much who owes to whom. You can share it with friends. *** Feel free to write me feedback about everything that embarrassed you and made you get stuck or, on the contrary, about what caused joy and positive user experience.
