Add both expenses to a group, and CommonEx shows everyone’s share and who owes whom. • Split a bill equally or enter a different amount for each person. • Record expenses in different currencies and see balances in the group’s currency. • Record repayments to keep track of what’s left to settle. • Invite friends with a link so everyone can add expenses to the same group. Create a group for a trip, shared household, dinner or group gift. There’s no account to set up. Add expenses offline and connect when you need to send invitations or sync with the group.
