Tab is the simple way to split a bill amongst friends. Snap a pic of the receipt and tap your items to claim them. Tax and tip are calculated for you. No more back-of-the-napkin algebra or typing in prices by hand! Here’s how it works: - Take a picture of your itemized receipt. Tab automatically detects all the items and prices. - Select which items each person ordered. Everyone that has Tab on their phone can join onto the bill and select their own items - the app keeps everything synced in real-time. - Multiple people can select the same item if they shared it. - Tax and tip are automatically divided proportionally. - If it's someone's birthday, you can split their total evenly among everyone else. - View and share detailed summaries of your past bills Tab has been featured on the Today show, "apps of the year" lists from Buzzfeed, Complex and others, Product Hunt, CNN, and more!

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?
