Split the bill.
Not the night.

How it works

One receipt. Three fair shares.

Follow one real dinner as it comes apart — and comes back together as one message everyone can pay from.

  1. 01Snap
  2. 02Every line
  3. 03Who had what
  4. 04Tax & tip
  5. 05Send

Snap the receipt.

Photograph it, pick a photo, or upload a PDF. Every line is read — plus subtotal, tax, tip and total — and checked to make sure it all adds up.

Every line, its own piece.

Anything it isn’t sure of gets flagged for a quick look. It reads the itemized receipt and the signed slip together — and it all happens on your phone. Nothing is uploaded.

Tap who had what.

Tap names on each line. Shared plates split themselves — halves, thirds, whatever the table did.

Tax & tip, fairly.

Tax and tip are shared in proportion to what each person ordered. Nobody pays tip on someone else’s steak.

Send everyone the split.

One tap sends a clean picture, organized by person, plus a short text version. Friends don’t need the app.

Deconstructed

Every layer does one job.

Pull a bill apart and you’ll find the whole idea: know who had what, decide who’s paying, give everyone their exact share, and keep a running total that always adds up.

Features

Everything the table needs. Nothing it doesn’t.

No daily limits. No ads. Receipt scanning isn’t a paid extra.

Settle up

What everyone owes you, netted.

“Owed to you” adds up what each friend owes across every bill. Request with a Venmo, Cash App or PayPal link, send a friendly reminder, and mark it settled in one tap.

Trips

One ledger for the whole trip.

Bills, expenses and part-payments together — then the fewest payments to square everyone up.

Scanning

Reads it. Checks it.

Line items, subtotal, tax, tip and total — checked against each other, with anything uncertain flagged. It reads the receipt and the signed slip together, and learns a restaurant’s odd labels after one correction.

Tip your way

Your tip, your rules.

Percent or dollars, before or after tax, round the total up or down. Set a standing preference once. It even remembers what’s customary per currency — no tip by default in places like Japan.

Travel money

Any currency, locked in.

Bills in practically any currency, with the exchange rate locked in when you enter it. A built-in calculator and converter can start a bill for you.

Business & tax

Business lunch? Filed.

Mark a meal as a business expense with the purpose and attendees the IRS asks for. File bills by company, see yearly and quarterly totals with business meals at your deduction rate, and export.

  • Spreadsheets
  • QuickBooks Online (CSV)
  • QuickBooks Desktop (IIF)

Private by design

No account. No ads. No tracking.

Your bills live on your phone and in your own iCloud. Back up and restore to a file anytime.

Live shared bills

Same bill, every phone.

Share a bill — or a whole trip — through iCloud so the group sees the same bill and who’s paid. Or send a snapshot copy.

Every way to split

However the table wants it.

Evenly, by percentage, custom amounts across subtotal, tax, tip and total — or by item. There’s an “everyone paid their own” mode too.

Sales tax

Sales tax, filled in.

Pick the restaurant from Apple Maps and the local rate is filled in. Your own rate always wins.

Send everyone the split

The split, as they see it.

One tap sends a clean picture organized by person — each person’s total, their dishes, their tax and tip — plus a short text version. It works in any messaging app, and friends on Android get it too.

  • Each person’s total, front and center
  • Their dishes, tax and tip, itemized
  • No app, no account, no sign-up for your friends

FAQ

Good questions.

Something else? Visit support or email support@splitsettleapp.com.

Do my friends need the app?

No. One tap sends a picture of the split plus a short text version through any messaging app. Each friend sees their total, their dishes, and their share of tax and tip. They’d only need Split & Settle to join a live shared bill through iCloud.

Is it really free?

Yes. Splitting is free with no limits: unlimited bills, receipt scanning, splitting by item, sending the split, settle-up with payment links, iCloud sync and shared bills, the calculator, and one trip. No ads, ever.

What’s in Pro?

Split & Settle Pro is $9.99 once — not a subscription. It adds unlimited trips, companies, Reports and the accounting export. Family Sharing is included.

Is my data uploaded anywhere?

No. Receipts are read entirely on your phone. Your bills live on your phone and, if you turn it on, in your own iCloud — we can’t see them. There’s no account, no ads and no tracking. Read the privacy policy.

Does it work outside the US, or in other currencies?

Yes. Enter bills in practically any currency, with the exchange rate locked in when you enter it. Tipping defaults follow what’s customary for the currency — no tip by default in places like Japan, Korea, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore — and you can always change it.

Can it handle shared dishes?

Yes. Tap every person who shared a dish and it splits automatically — in halves, thirds, or however many people tapped in.

What about the tip on the tax?

Your call. Tip as a percent or a dollar amount, before or after tax, and round the total up or down. Set a standing tip preference and it applies automatically. Tax and tip are shared in proportion to what each person ordered.

Is there an Android version?

Not yet — Split & Settle is iPhone only for now and requires iOS 17 or later. Friends on Android still get the picture and the text.

Can I track business meals?

Yes. Mark a meal as a business expense with its purpose and attendees, file bills by company, and see yearly and quarterly totals in Reports — including business meals at your deduction rate. Export for spreadsheets, QuickBooks Online (CSV) or QuickBooks Desktop (IIF). Companies, Reports and export are part of Pro. Split & Settle isn’t tax advice, so check the rules that apply to you.

How do I restore my purchase?

Open Settings → Split & Settle Pro → Restore. Make sure you’re signed in with the same Apple Account you bought with. Family Sharing members get Pro too.
