It's a very simple, yet realistic hourglass. - Choose from a 1-minute, 3-minute, or 6-minute timer (check the remaining time at the bottom of the screen to determine the correct time). - Swipe the screen horizontally or turn your iPhone sideways and then back to portrait to flip the hourglass over. - You can display the remaining time and play a chime when the timer finishes. - You can set it to rotate automatically once all the sand has fallen. Staring at it is soothing...maybe.

EZ Bill Split divides a restaurant bill — tax, tip, and uneven shares — and gets the cents right. Most split calculators round each person's share on its own, so the individual amounts quietly don't add up to the bill. EZ Bill Split works in whole cents and hands out the remainder, so what everyone owes always sums to the check exactly. No mystery dollar at the end of dinner. SPLIT IT THE WAY IT ACTUALLY WENT • Even split across any number of people • Weighted shares for the person who had two drinks while everyone else had one • Pin an exact amount for someone and let the rest divide what's left • Plain warnings when the pinned amounts overshoot the bill or leave part of it unpaid TAX AND TIP, DONE PROPERLY • A real tax field, separate from the subtotal • Tip on the pre-tax subtotal or on the tax-inclusive total — your call • Quick 0–25% buttons, plus any custom percentage • Round every share up to a whole dollar, with the surplus shown as extra tip instead of hidden BUILT TO BE QUICK • Everything recalculates as you type; there is no calculate button • Name people so the shares, and the summary you share, say who owes what • Save a split and load it back later • Seven currencies • Light and dark, following your system YOURS, AND ONLY YOURS No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking, and no network calls. Your splits never leave your phone. From Ascendral.
