Settle Up - Group Expenses 4+

I absolutely love this app. Been traveling with friends for years, and this one has been the absolute best. It allows weighted contributions for people… for example, a married couple can have an assigned value of 2, and single people can have a value of 1. Making it so an even split bill (such as a taxi or hotel) will automatically split appropriately. If you’re traveling through multiple countries with multiple currencies, it will accurately convert the consolidated debts of each person in a group. We used to spend hours obsessing over who owes what at the end of a trip, but it’s not an issue anymore. It’s worth purchasing premium for the group (one time cost, benefits all transactions within the group). Groups can be reset after a trip is complete, which means you can continue having the perks of premium for a future trip at no extra cost.

This is absolutely one of the best if not the best splitting app available.

First- the most common activity on this kind of app is adding an expense on the go, so you want it to be quick and painless. Settle up by far has the fastest expense adding framework, because you can start by tapping the name of the person who paid. Seems like a small thing, but it makes a big difference in the field.

Second- exporting transactions is not behind a paywall.

Third- unlimited transactions not behind paywall.

Fourth- default shares for groups and an advanced expense adding experience for things like meals where tax and tip might be separate from the item subtotal. This includes a calculator in the subtotal area as well.

Overall- the app looks a little dated. But who cares. All the basic functionality is there, it’s the fastest to add an expense, and only appropriate functionality is behind the paywall (like categories, receipt storage, and recurring transactions).

This app was a game changer on a recent group trip. It allowed us to relax and just live our best lives while not having to worry about whether we were kicking in too much or not enough, or having to do any kind of math with vacation brains. Can't recommend it enough.
