SquareUp is the fastest way to split a bill the way it was actually ordered — not by dividing by four and hoping nobody notices. Point your camera at the receipt. SquareUp pulls every line item, tax, and tip. Tap who had what. Text everyone their own itemized total with a one-tap link to pay you back. No more screenshots, no more "I owe you around $20?", no more chasing people the week after. SquareUp is great for: -Dinners out with friends who all ordered different things -Roommates splitting groceries, utilities, and rent -Group trips where someone's been fronting everything -Couples who keep a running tab on shared costs -Coworkers on a regular lunch rotation Here's how it works: Scan a receipt and every item, tax, and tip gets parsed automatically -Tap items to assign them to people; shared stuff splits evenly across whoever had it -Tax and tip divide proportionally, so nobody overpays for the friend who got the lobster -Send everyone their share over iMessage with a Venmo, PayPal, or Cash App link pre-filled The people paying you back don't need to download anything. Their link opens in a browser with their personalized itemized total and payment buttons — tap, pay, done. Every feature you'd expect, and the ones you wouldn't: -Works on faded thermal receipts, handwritten tabs, and screenshots of delivery orders -Groups with running balances across every bill, simplified down to the fewest possible payments when you settle up -Friends list so you're not retyping names for the same dinner crew every week -Balance on the home tab — what you're owed, what you owe, across everything -Recurring bills for rent and subscriptions so they post themselves -Credit card rewards tracking so you know what card to put the group dinner on -Spending insights by person, group, and month -Export any bill or group to CSV or PDF for taxes -Home screen widgets for your balance at a glance -Guest mode — works without an account -Dark mode throughout SquareUp is free to start. Every premium feature is unlocked for your first two weeks, no payment info required. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
