Split group expenses without the awkward maths. CashSplit keeps one clean tab per trip, house, or night out β who paid, who shared it, and exactly who owes who β then shrinks the whole thing to the fewest payments that settle everyone up. No accounts, no invites, no waiting for friends to install anything. You keep the ledger; everyone else just gets the final numbers. And because CashSplit does all of its arithmetic in exact integer cents, the balances always add up: apply the suggested payments and every single person lands on zero. WHAT YOU GET β’ One tab per event β the ski trip, the flat, Friday dinner β with people and expenses side by side and totals that update the moment you type β’ A "who pays whom" plan with the fewest possible transfers: 30 expenses across 8 people collapse into a handful of payments that provably clear every balance β’ Three ways to split any line β evenly, by exact amounts, or by percentages β with every last cent distributed, never lost to rounding β’ A paid-versus-share card for each person, so "you still owe" is a fact on screen, not an argument at the table β’ A shareable summary and CSV export: send the settle-up plan to the group chat and everyone sees the same numbers β’ An optional reminder a few days later if money is still owed, so open tabs actually get closed PERFECT FOR β’ Trips where one person books the rooms and someone else keeps paying for dinner β’ Roommates sharing rent, groceries, and the internet bill β’ Couples keeping shared spending fair without opening a joint account β’ Birthdays, ski weekends, festivals β any event where the group pays as it goes WHY NOT JUST A NOTE OR A SPREADSHEET? Because notes don't do maths and spreadsheets do it badly. Uneven splits, someone joining halfway through the trip, a person removed from an expense, rounding on odd amounts β this is exactly where DIY ledgers fall apart. CashSplit resolves all of it with exact arithmetic and shows you a settlement it can verify: after the listed payments, every balance is zero. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your ledger lives on your iPhone β no account, no sign-up, no server. Nothing about your group or your spending leaves the device; even the settle-up reminders are generated locally. Deleting a tab deletes it for real. FULL ACCESS CashSplit Full Access unlocks unlimited open tabs at once plus the exact-amount and percentage split modes. Choose a Weekly or Yearly auto-renewing subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase β every plan unlocks the same full version. Open your first tab tonight: add the people at the table, type in what they paid, and watch the argument disappear.
