Splittr helps you to split group expenses on vacations, with your roommates or any other group activity. Simply add expenses as you go and Splittr will tell you who owes whom how much. Invite your friends and everybody can enter expenses with their own devices. - Works offline - Syncs with friends - No registration needed - All currencies supported - Categorize your expenses (custom categories available) - PDF and CSV export - Statistics and fun facts about your group - A super fast, easy-to-use interface - Smart settle-up that minimizes the number of payments - You can split expenses unevenly if purchasers paid different amounts or if certain participants benefited more or less from the expense - Automatic backups Use case: Imagine you are on a trip with two friends: Emma and Daniel. You pay $100 for gas for the trip. Anyone with a calculator can divide that price three ways, but even then, you’d normally have to keep a record of the expense in order to divvy it up later. With Splittr, this expense is entered in a couple of seconds and divided equally with little time or effort. Imagine that later, you, Emma and Daniel go to a restaurant. You’re not hungry, so you only order juice. Daniel orders a steak and a cheesecake. Emma gets a spinach salad. The bill is $80. Daniel forgot his wallet in the hotel room and doesn’t pay, but you chip in $60 and Emma pays $20. You need a math degree to calculate who owes what, right? Not with Splittr! Simply enter who paid how much and Splittr will do the rest. It’s that simple!

About

Open Receipt

Read full description

You go out to dinner, drinks, or an event with friends. You pay. Then, you spend either the next 10 minutes meticulously calculating what each person owes or what everyone owes, or worse, put it off until you forget. Open Receipt was designed with one goal in mind: create a dead-simple receipt-splitting app with no subscriptions. That's it. Anyone should be able to accurately scan, split, and settle a receipt in under 3 minutes. And it shouldn't require $5 per month to do so. I tried a lot of receipt-splitting apps looking for the right one. I kept running into expensive subscriptions or poor receipt scanning, so I built Open Receipt. Receipts are read with Apple's Private Cloud Compute, so your data stays private. And as the name suggests, Open Receipt is open source. Read the code, or build and install it yourself for free, at github.com/collinmurch/open-receipt.
