Three seconds. No hunting through Splitwise. WHAT IT DOES โข Triggered automatically when your payment app closes (via iOS Shortcuts) โข Logs the split to your existing Splitwise account in seconds โข Region-aware payment app catalogue: - India: GPay, PhonePe, Paytm, BHIM, slice, Mobikwik - US: Venmo, Cash App, PayPal, Apple Pay - UK: Monzo, Revolut, Starling, Apple Pay โข Settle up flow with debt simplification (mirrored from Splitwise) HOW THE TRIGGER WORKS 1. Sign in with your Splitwise account 2. Pick the payment apps you use 3. Follow the in-app walkthrough to wire up iOS Shortcuts (~2 minutes) 4. From then on, every time you close a payment app, Snag appears so you can log the split before you forget PRICING + PRIVACY Snag is free. No in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no ads. We don't store your financial data on our servers โ every split goes straight to your Splitwise account, which has always been the source of truth. Snag respects Splitwise's free-tier daily expense limit. Snag is a third-party companion app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Splitwise. A Splitwise account is required.
