iPhone
New in 1.1: pick modes. Keep it strictly Fair, add suspense with Lucky, or go Wild, per crew. And tap anyone who's out today, right on the home screen.
Pago io (Italian for "I'll pay!") settles the oldest question at the coffee bar: whose turn is it?
Tap one big button, watch the slot-machine reel spin through your crew, and see who lands on "Pago io!". No arguing, no keeping score in your head, no one quietly skipping their round.
FAIR BY DESIGN
In Fair mode, Pago io works like a shuffled deck of cards: in every cycle, everyone pays exactly once, in a random order, and never twice in a row. The cycle card on the home screen shows who still owes, so everyone can see it's fair.
PICK YOUR VIBE
Each crew chooses its own mode:
• Fair: strict turns. Everyone pays once per cycle.
• Lucky: anyone can be picked, but whoever still owes is 3× as likely. A little suspense, and it still evens out.
• Wild: pure luck. Someone might pay three rounds in a row.
MADE FOR REAL LIFE
• Someone's out today? Tap their avatar and they're skipped. Their turn is postponed, never erased.
• Coffee, tea, snack or lunch: log what each round was for.
• Several crews: the office, your friends, your roommates, each with its own people, history and cycle.
• Undo a pick, or tap "Not here" to pick again in a second.
• History with a "Who's been paying" chart and friendly titles like Top Sponsor .
• Share the result with your group.
PRIVATE, ALWAYS
Everything stays on your iPhone. No accounts, no sign-up, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. It works completely offline.
