Split any bill with anyone, on any phone, in any country. Evens scans the receipt, lets you say who had what, and keeps a running balance for trips, apartments and dinners. Friends pay from a link in the apps they already use. No download, no account. SCAN IT Snap a receipt and AI reads every line, plus tax, service and tip. Subtotal and total rows are detected and kept out of your items. SAY WHO HAD WHAT "Ali had the burger, Mona and I shared the fries." Voice assignment puts each item on the right person. Prefer tapping? Split by item, equally, by exact amounts, by percentage or by shares. Quick IOUs need no bill at all. EVERY CENT ACCOUNTED FOR Each share shows exactly which items, tax and tip it includes, and every edit is in the history. Totals always add up, in the currency's real decimals. FRIENDS PAY FROM A LINK Send a personal link or a share card on WhatsApp or iMessage. Guests open it on the web, see their share, pay with Venmo, Cash App, PayPal, Zelle or Apple Cash, and attach proof of payment. Payment methods match each friend's country, with the amount filled in where the app allows it. SETTLE IN FEWER PAYMENTS Groups keep a running balance across bills. Settle up with the fewest transfers, record payments, and get a gentle reminder for open balances, never more than one a week. Can't decide who pays? Spin the who-pays roulette. ANY CURRENCY, 22 LANGUAGES 158 currencies with the right decimals, 80+ local payment apps, right-to-left Arabic and Urdu, and dark mode. FREE TO USE Unlimited bills, groups, balances and guest links, and typing a bill in is always free. You start with welcome points for AI scans and voice, and a short rewarded ad adds more when you want them. No interstitial ads. PRO Unlimited AI scans and voice, multi-currency groups with daily exchange rates, recurring bills such as rent and utilities, CSV and PDF export, and no ads. Choose monthly, yearly with a free trial, or a one-time lifetime purchase. PRIVACY Evens never holds your money: friends pay each other directly in their own apps. Your receipts are never used to train AI. Subscriptions are charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm the purchase and renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel them in your App Store account settings. Privacy Policy: https://omarmali.net/split-bill/privacy/ Terms of Use: https://omarmali.net/split-bill/terms/

About

Flags

Features
Read full description

Put a flag where you'll actually see it. Pick a country and its flag sits on your Apple Watch face, your iPhone Lock Screen, or your Home Screen. That's the whole app. It exists because I'm Brazilian and I live abroad, and I wanted my flag somewhere I'd catch it a hundred times a day. WHAT YOU GET - Every country your device knows about, roughly 250 of them - Apple Watch complications, Lock Screen widgets and Home Screen widgets - A circle, or filling the whole slot, whichever suits where you put it - Star the flags you use and they follow you between iPhone and Watch over iCloud - Country names come from the system, so they are already in your language WHAT IT DOESN'T DO No account. No sign-in. No tracking, no analytics, no advertising. The app has no server and makes no network requests. Your favourites go to your own iCloud and nowhere else. Free, with nothing to buy, and open source. The code is on GitHub if you want to read it or send a fix.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flags at none against Evens's 3. Flags also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). Evens's advantage is iOS requirement (15 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
