Split the bill. Keep the friends. Fairtabs is a modern bill-splitting app for trips, roommates, restaurants, and recurring household costs. Snap a receipt, split it cleanly, and settle in one tap with the wallet your friends already use. WHY FAIRTABS — Receipt OCR. Take a photo of any receipt, and we auto-fill the merchant, total, and (when itemised) the line items. Faded thermal paper, foreign-currency menus, hand-written tabs — we read what we can and let you tap to fix anything we missed. — Wallet handoffs that actually work. When it's time to settle up, tap once to open Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle with the exact amount and recipient pre-filled. Fairtabs never sees, holds, or moves your money — the payment happens entirely inside the wallet app you already trust. — Trip Stories. Every trip becomes a clean recap: who paid the most, who's settled, the timeline of the trip in expenses. The kind of thing you actually want to look back at. — Friend ledgers. One running balance per friendship — across direct expenses and shared groups. No more "wait, what about that thing from Paris three months ago?" — Recurring expenses. Rent, utilities, the streaming bundle. Set them once and let them auto-post each month. — Insights. See where the money goes — by category, by friend, by month. Built-in. Not a paywall. GENEROUS FREE TIER 100 expenses and 5 receipt scans every month, all split types (equal, %, shares, itemized), and one running balance with every friend. For most people, that's more than enough — we'll never paywall the basics of splitting a bill. Free includes the occasional in-app ad to keep the lights on. PLUS, AVAILABLE BY SUBSCRIPTION Fairtabs Plus is an optional auto-renewing subscription. Lifts the 100/month expense cap, unlocks unlimited receipt scans, adds expense search across all your tabs and a 6-month spending trend chart, and removes ads. $1.99/month or $17.99/year. Cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. PRIVACY YOU CAN ACTUALLY READ We collect what we need to run the app and nothing else. No cross-app tracking. No selling data. Receipt OCR uses Anthropic's Claude API — images are sent for the single inference and not used for training. Full privacy policy: fairtabs.com/privacy. WHO IT'S FOR — Roommates splitting rent, utilities, and groceries — Friends on a trip splitting hotels, dinners, and rideshares — Couples sharing recurring household costs — Anyone who's tired of "you got me back, right?" We built Fairtabs because the existing options got worse, not better. We answer real emails at hello@fairtabs.com. Split the bill. Keep the friends. SUBSCRIPTION Fairtabs Plus — auto-renewing subscription. Available as Monthly ($1.99/month) or Yearly ($17.99/year). Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscription automatically renews at the same price unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in iOS Settings → Subscriptions → Fairtabs Plus.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Livble at none against Fairtabs's 2. Livble also leads on ratings volume (3.3K vs 2) and chart position (#117 vs unranked). Fairtabs's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
