Hate having to get your calculator out every time you eat out with friends? Billy does this for you! Just take a picture of your bill in a restaurant or bar, Billy will automatically scan the bill and pull out each of the items. Then each person says what they are paying for. You can add a tip, and then see how much everyone needs to pay. This makes it much quicker to work out how much to owe. This app has only recently been released, so you may notice some glitches. Let us know how you get on, as we'd love to know!
DivvyUp

DivvyUp keeps track of the money between you and everyone else: the dinner bill, the $20 a friend still owes you, the train fare a client is paying back, and what's left to spend this month. SPLIT THE BILL • Snap the bill and DivvyUp reads every line: items, service and total, checked to make sure they add up. • Split evenly, or drag each dish to whoever had it. Tap a dish to share it between people. • Service, tax and tip are shared out fairly on top of what everyone had. • Send everyone their share as a message, with the receipt photo attached. • Turn what people owe into IOUs in one tap. • Every split is kept, with its receipt and who paid what. IOUS • Money and things you've lent or borrowed, person by person. • Due dates, with a reminder when something's overdue. • Part payments, and settled IOUs kept for reference. CLIENT EXPENSES • Log receipts and mileage for each client and project. • Set how each client pays you back: in full, a percentage, a flat amount per trip, up to a limit, or not at all. • See what's ready to claim, what's invoiced and what you've received. • Create expense reports as a PDF or CSV, with tax and receipts included. • Spent abroad? Amounts are converted at the European Central Bank rate for the day, and you can change the rate to match your bank statement. • Record payments from clients, in any currency. BUDGET • Monthly limits by category, with what you can spend each day. • Your share of split bills counts toward your budget automatically. AND • Home puts what needs you first: overdue IOUs, money to pay back and claims to send. • Nine calculators: tip and split, drinks split, sales tax, currency, tax set-aside, interest, savings goal, savings growth and discounts. • Syncs across your devices with iCloud.
