Give ability to link my PSEG account to splitwise account
I am account holder of PSEG account in my house and i get billed every month. I have opted for e-bills and i have setup autopay for it. But each month, i have to check the amount and add it to my splitwise group for sharing. I cannot setup a recurring pay in splitwise for this bill like i have done for Verizon internet bill since this bill amount varies a lot.
I need a ability to link my PSEG account or someway so that once my autopay pays the bill, it automatically gets added to my splitwise house group…
3 votesThanks for the feedback!
We agree that this would be an awesome user experience. Unfortunately, each biller we’d integrate with (PSEG, Verizon, Con Edison, etc) would require us to build a new tech infrastructure. There are over 100 billers in the country and after thinking through the issue a lot, we had to conclude that we shouldn’t spend energy on building these features. We’re a tiny team (3 engineers) with many other priorities.
Sorry for the trouble and thanks for using Splitwise!

Taxes and tips
It would be very helpful to be able to show the split of the actual taxes and tips paid according to what each participating group member has spent or owes.1 voteHey Lydia I’m not really sure what you mean. Are you talking about the Plates app, or itemized bills within Splitwise?

This is a cool idea, but many users opt out of receiving push notifications from us so we couldn’t guarantee that your notification would reach them. Email reminders are more stably deliverable.

Great idea, too many taps
Hello,
I finally found a good looking, good features' IOU app and I have to thank you. I also want to give some feedback from the few minutes I've played with it.
One has to tap to much and I feel that in these kind of things, that's not good because it starts to feel like a chore. For instance, when settling a debt a swipe should be enough.

New homescreen icon
I will start by saying that you guys have developed a really, really great service, so smooth and well thought out. All honour to you! This was all that I would want in a service like this, and the connection between mobile and desktop is just great!
One little thing, and this is just a first world porblem; I would like to see a little different icon on iOS. I feel that the interface within the app itself is so good, but the icon isn't quite up to that level. Just a tiny request. But I feel that by seeing…
1 voteWe’re so glad you like Splitwise and love hearing from users, but we’re sticking with the current icon for now.

We support recurring bills on the phone – just tap the date when adding a new bill, and you’ll see options to make that bill recur.
For payments, though, we decided not to include recurring options. When someone settles up on Splitwise, we want to make sure it’s because they took conscious action and actually settled up, not because something repeated automatically.

Allow payments through Amazon Payments which charges no credit card fees under 1000$ a month

intergate with dropbox or gdrive as backup
Provide a option where we can sign in with out dropbox/gdrive login password account and export the data to dropbox account.
Just just gives a option data backup, incase some thing goes wrong.
6 votesBuilding a Dropbox or Google Drive integration isn’t in our plans right now – we take care to backup our own servers, and we already allow you to download basic backups in .csv format from the website. We’d much rather focus on improving core features.
And don’t worry: if Splitwise ever shuts down, we’ll notify all our users and give ample time for you to export your information :)

WP8 client tip calc whole $
Tip.calc needs to show whole number and calc based on that. Currently the slider moves through unknown % for a given tip.
1 voteThe WP8 client is a third-party, unofficial app – it’s not maintained by the Splitwise team. You should send your suggestion to the developer of Splittr, Miron Vranjes, at splittr@mironv.com or @MironV. Cheers!

Deleting a bill
Only the creator should be allowed to delete the bill and not the share holder.
Also on a seperate note i started using app with USD and then changed the currency to INR but people i started with in still have USD next to them instead of INR
3 votesHi Vishal,
We do want to give people confidence that their bills have not been deleted, so in the user settings we have an “email me anytime someone updated / edits / deletes a bill.” We plan to change the default setting to alert you anytime a bill you created is deleted, which I think should give you some more confidence.
We strongly believe anyone should be able to delete a bill in order to help correct mistakes and make things simple and complexity-free.
The currency issue you are referring to can also be fixed in user settings – there is a button on the website that allows you to convert all expenses you have so far into your default currency (it just sets the currency code, it doesn’t do any currency exchange.)
I hope this helps!
Cheers,

Make the person who created the expense the only one who can delete it
It happened to me, someone deleted an expense and it didn't even give me a notification. And there is no history that I know of, so I could not restore.

Itemised bill with unequal sharing
Hi,
Currently when we divide a bill in itemised mode, the shares are put up equally for each participant, but it is not the case always.We also need an option to unequally split inside an itemised bill. Can you address that?
1 voteWe don’t have plans to add unequal shares to itemized billing – it’s a pretty uncommon case, and we haven’t been able to come up with an interface for it that we consider “good enough”.
If you’d like to include unequally split items, you can try adding them as individual expenses, separate from the itemized bill. I realize that’s not ideal, though. Sorry for the trouble!

Simplify Debt for iOS App
It would be nice if we could simplify debt amongst an arbitrary set of friends from the iOS App. We can do this on the web interface (though I contend it is still a little hard to find this feature), but the feature appears to be missing from the mobile version.
3 votesThis feature is a power user feature and is very confusing even in the current interface. We don’t plan to bring this to the mobile apps.

Add Washington State Tax based on location.
Some how make this work inside the system. For Andriod.

1 voteHi Yazz,
This seems way out of scope for us. We generally expect people to put in the total amount after tax for expenses. Where would we use the tax?

provide option for user ids also
Instead of inserting email id everytime you can also create user names, email id should be mandatory for the first time for verifing after that user can login using their Usernames also
1 voteI’m not completely sure what you mean here, but I’m assuming you want the ability to add use nicknames for use in the app to add them to expenses? You should already be able to search by name in the fields to add expenses and it should find friends already on Splitwise first.

Mobile Website not available
I have an old version of android (v 2.1)
The Android app is not compatible for this version.
It would be better if we have m.splitwise.com with basic features4 votesWe have no plans for a mobile website at this time – we’re a small team, and are already dedicating all our engineering resources to the full web app, iPhone, and Android. Sorry for the inconvenience!

email notifications
Please stop forcing me to send emails to people when I want to track who I owe money to. The fact that I MUST send an email to someone before I can track something is invasive. You have a great app, but that part is a show stopper. Dont' MAKE people send emails. The fact that I track who I owe money to using an app on my iphone should be my choice to share, not a pre-req.
1 voteSplitwise is, at it’s core, a communication and fairness tool, not a private ledger. If you really want to keep a private ledger, add a group with your self and another person and simply leave the email blank when you add the other person.
