How to use it
- Step 1 of 4: In New entry, type the amount, then turn on Split. On iPhone it’s above the keyboard.
- Step 2 of 4: Choose who paid under Paid by, and tick who it’s split between.
- Step 3 of 4: Pick Equally, Amounts or Shares. The strip at the bottom shows when it adds up.
- Step 4 of 4: Save it. Your list shows your share, and Settle up shows who owes whom. Only you can change the split; the others can still mark what they paid.
