We’d definitely like to bring Facebook login to the iPhone app – it’s on our list of possible features for a future release. For now, if you have an existing Splitwise account connected to Facebook, you can log into our mobile app by following the instructions here: http://feedback.splitwise.com/knowledgebase/articles/111323-how-do-i-log-in-with-facebook-connect-on-the-split

Overpay&Split
Scenario:
4 friends chipping in money to buy say beer. They don't know yet how much it will cost. A pays $40, B pays 10, C pays 20 and D pays nothing. B goes with 70 bucks and ends up buying a case of beer for 60 bucks. How can they split equally using the app?If you've had this scenario in the past, vote for this!
7 votesThanks for the suggestion! I can see how this would be useful – I’ll add it to our list of possible features for future updates :)

Ability to use "open in Splitwise" for pictures or pdfs of receipts
I use an app called CamScanner to scan my receipts because it crops the receipts and applies a whitening filter to make it look very nice.
I can save this to my camera roll and then import them into splitwise but it would be nice to be able to press "open in splitwise" for any image or pdf. You would have to register the file types your app supports.
Description of technology by Apple:
If your app is capable of opening specific types of files, you should register that support with the system. This allows other apps, through the iOS…16 votesInteresting suggestion! I’ll add this to our list of possible iOS features, and see what the rest of the team thinks.

make it easier to manage reoccuring expenses
I set it up once, and now i can't find it anywhere. Bad UX. Should be pretty central.
14 votesSorry about this – we know recurring expense support on the iPhone is pretty minimal and rather confusing. We’re hoping to make it clearer and easier to use in future updates.

android app for tablet
Recently saw in the promotional mail for "Plates" that the android app will get a much needed update. Will the new app be optimised for Tablets also. I have the current splitwise app on my Nexus 7 tablet and it is a very bad user experience. Any timeline on the new version and tablet optimisation?
5 votesWe’ve updated the Android app to be much better in general, but have not optimized it for tablets. This isn’t currently something on our short term roadmap.

Don't consider accents when searching for a friend's name
Hi,
I have a friend whose first name is "Émilie". Note the accented É since the name is in French.
When searching for names, her name does not appear if I type "Emi"; it only appears when typing "Émi".
Would it be possible not to consider accents when searching?
Thanks

Group settle
One thing i liked about Billmonk was that i could create random groups and did not have to send invites and link to others. Once I could create random groups i could easily shuffle debts between everyone in the group.. That was super convenient. Also on the fly I could remove and add users during the debt shuffle process.
I wish you could build something like that. It was much better user experience
4 votesWe are working on the way groups and friendships work together and we agree that expenses should be shuffled around between people to make peoples lives easier. Adding people to the debt shuffle is something we’ll talk about and see if it’s something we’d like to do.

[BUG] splitting expense by shares calculation isn't accurate
A lot of the times I am trying to split a bill between friends for food. I want to know how much I owe based on the price of my item, and how much we paid after taxes and tip. Owed = (total w/ taxes & tip) * (pre tax price / pretax total)
I try to do this with shares instead, so for an item for $15.50 I will enter as 1550 shares. The problem is, this calculation is rounded too much and the amount I owe is not deterministic.
For example, my friends ordered items that are $15.50,…
4 votesThanks for the feedback! We designed this feature around the idea that a couple might take two shares on an expense or a family might take 4 shares to avoid needing to have everyone on the expense, so the system currently calculates all the shares to the exact penny, with some getting an extra penny when rounding is necessary. As you noted, with large numbers of shares, the extra pennies get randomly assigned with a much larger variation than would be ideal.
In theory, over time the way the extra pennies get assigned will be fair, but the next version of the Android app will use a different methodology that will handle these cases with much less variation. Most cases will not vary at all, but in some rare situations you might see the exact rounding vary by 1 penny.

Plates: Real-time bill
Sometimes it can be very challenging to keep up with who orders what and how much. Sometimes we spend a bit of time asking around. How about real-time bill? This allows the host (or whoever is willing to use the app) to actively split the bill during the event and it is time-stamped.
Scenario:
-5 friends show up and orders a few drinks
-20 min later, they order snacks
-30 min later, 2 more friends shows up and places more orders
-Repeat until all friends are present and placed all orders.Issue (towards the end):
-Some were drunk. They don’t…3 votesThanks for posting your suggestions! We’re a small team and haven’t been able to put a lot of energy into our Plates app. I’ll leave this under review for now.
There’s already a post with a request to add more people, check it out here: https://splitwise.uservoice.com/forums/162446-general/suggestions/20113906-plates-to-increase-the-possible-number-of-people

Display summary in multiple rows per currency type
I would like to see the details like you owe, you are owed or total balance in multiple rows per currency type. So that bills added in USD or INR can be tracked or viewed on summary easily.
1 voteThanks for the feedback! I can see how that would be useful. I don’t think we will change the summary. But we might be able to come up with a better way show you a summary of your balances in all currencies.

Link Splitwise to Wunderlist as set to-dos/ reminders to settle up
as above. Both mobile and web :)

I'd like to be able to add a photo with my comment on a bill
If I over or under pay on a bill, I'd like to be able to add a photo with my comment to provide evidence of the overcharge
1 voteThanks for the suggestion! This definitely makes sense. Adding photo support for comments isn’t on our roadmap yet, but hopefully it’s something we can include in a future update.

Add Split screen support for Android 7.0
Please add support for split screen on Android 7.0. As of now it gives me an error saying that app doesn't support split screen and throws me out of the split screen mode. I would like to see the support soon.
Thanks!5 votesThis would be an interesting addition to the Android app. Depending on how difficult this is to implement and if its possible to do this without compromising the experience, I’ll look into supporting split-screen natively on Android Nougat in the future.
