Settle money with your people. Went out with friends? Snap a photo of the receipt. Splits reads every item with AI, so there's no typing and no squinting at tiny numbers. Share a link to your group chat and everyone picks what they had. Tax and tip are split based on what each person actually ordered. The best part? Your friends don't need to download anything. They open the link in their browser, tap their items, and they're done in 30 seconds. HOW IT WORKS - Snap the receipt: take a photo and AI pulls out every item, price, tax and tip in seconds. Works with most restaurant receipts. - Share a link: send it by iMessage, WhatsApp or any group chat. Friends claim their items right in the browser. - Settle up: one tap opens Venmo, Cash App or Zelle with the exact amount filled in. Or mark it paid if they handed you cash. BEYOND RESTAURANT BILLS Covered an Uber? Bought the groceries? Add any shared expense in seconds with Quick Add: enter the amount, pick your friends, and split it equally or by custom amounts. No receipt needed. Or type what happened, like "Uber $85, I owe $45, Jake and Sara $20 each", and Splits does the math. YOUR MONEY, YOUR PEOPLE See exactly where you stand with every friend: who owes you, who you owe, and how much. No more mental math or awkward "hey, did you pay me back?" texts. Tap any friend to see your full history together, month by month: every dinner, every ride, every settle-up, with a running balance. TRIPS AND GROUPS Group splits with labels, like a trip, your apartment or your Friday crew, and see who owes who across all of them. Turn on Smart Settle and Splits cancels out debts that go in circles, so everyone makes fewer payments. Totals never change. BUILT DIFFERENT - AI does the work: no manual data entry. It handles quantities, multi-item lines and service charges. - No friction for friends: they open a link. No app download, no account. - Actually fair: tax and tip follow what you ordered, not an even split across the table. - Free: unlimited scans, splits and friends. No paywalls.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Splits at none against SubManager's 3. Splits also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.4). SubManager's advantage is ratings volume (70 vs 1) and device support (5 vs 2). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Splits holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SubManager has 70 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
SubManager ships an update every 8 days, Splits every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 14, 2026 and November 13, 2026 respectively.
