SelfHive is the iOS companion for your self-hosted BillHive server. It handles three kinds of splitting: household bills, restaurant checks, and group trips. All data syncs to your own server. Requires a running BillHive server (one Docker container). Deploy with: docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v billhive-data:/data ghcr.io/martyportatoes/billflow:latest BILLS MODE Track recurring household bills month after month. Split by percentage or fixed dollar amounts, set "covered by" relationships, and auto-carry amounts that don't change. The monthly checklist syncs between web and iOS. CHECKS MODE Split a restaurant check in seconds. Scan the receipt with on-device OCR to auto-populate line items, tax, and tip. Generate a no-account share link hosted on your server. Friends open it in any browser and claim their items. TRIPS MODE Create a trip, add members, and log multi-payer expenses with receipt photos. When the trip ends, debt simplification minimizes transfers. Export PDF or CSV summaries. COLLECT WHAT YOU'RE OWED Zelle, Venmo, and Cash App deep-links with the exact amount pre-filled across all three modes. Send rich HTML emails via your server's mail relay (Mailgun, SendGrid, Resend, or SMTP).
