Read full description

Track your own expenses and your group's in one app. In «My expenses» you keep yours apart, and only you see them. And when you share with friends, your partner, roommates or family, the app splits the bills, runs the money pool and tells you who owes who, without doing the math by hand. YOURS ALONE OR SHARED • My expenses: your own spending, apart from your groups. Only you see it, and it doesn't count toward the group limit. • Quick add: type «lunch 25000» in one line and it's logged. Works in «My expenses», with your account. • Quick split: split a one-off bill among several people, tip included if you want, without creating a group. SPLIT IT YOUR WAY • Equally or by percentage. • A different amount for each person, with Pro. • Expenses that repeat, like rent or internet: one per group free, unlimited with Pro. • Categories to see where the money goes: up to 5 free, unlimited with Pro. • A photo of the receipt on each expense, with Pro. • If an expense looks like a repeat, the app warns you before saving it. THE MONEY POOL • Chip in for something together —a gift, a trip, the party— and see how much is left to go. Money pool, kitty, collection: call it what you like. WHO OWES WHO • Balances update on their own every time someone adds an expense. • When someone records that they paid you, you confirm it. • Pay each debt on its own, or settle everything at once with Pro. • A small debt left over?

YOUR MONTH AT A GLANCE • What you've spent from the 1st to today, next to where you were last month on the same date. • «Where's the money going?», with the month's categories in a mosaic, and the «How the month is going» chart. • A monthly budget, free. Budgets per category and their alerts, with Pro. • Alerts when a debt grows too much; with Pro, also unusual expenses and budgets gone over. • Compare the last 15 days with the 15 before, with Pro. • Close a period and start fresh without losing balances, with Pro. • Activity history: last month's expenses and payments, day by day and who made them.
