It would be handy if we can add non splitwise entities to a certain cost so that a part of the cost can be assigned to these without them needing to have an actual account.

I got a virtual phone number for Los Angeles at 6$ is this a good deal?

@admin: It's been 3 years since you replied to this question but the Splitwise mobile app on iOS still does not support adding people with contact info (email/contact#). While I commend the app itself, which has been designed next to perfect, on the other hand, I would also seek the developers to capture such feedback and roll out these features as enhancements.

anything done since 2016?

I just downloaded e app, and it's simple and functional. But I uninstalled it after I couldn't create new records without having to invite a contact to e app. Hope that someday this issue can be resolved. Thanks!

P.S. if anyone else has a good and similar app to recommend, pls let me know! =) Thanks!

Hello my name is Madison I'm 14 years old

kindly connect it with contacts

Came here to post this request as well. Why is this not a feature already? Everyone has friends who refuse to download the app or are just not tech savvy enough to deal with it. Especially for family trips or large trips where you just need to track but don’t need everyone to be involved. Please add this feature before many of us leave what is otherwise a great platform.

Yeah, not having this function kinda breaks what could be a very useful app.

Or app strore hello frieng

Good

A lot of people are not tech-savvy and might not have/want a Splitwise account. Allow a Splitwise user to keep a list of friends without sending invite option. So that the user can track those expenses.

It will be very helpful if this feature gets added in mobile as well.

Yes, this is a huge pain and forces me to use other group cost-splitting services instead of Splitwise. I understand this feature is available on the web - odd that it's missing on mobile. The mobile app should be just as robust as the web app, if not more so.

Having to add all the info is trully a pain! It would be nice for it to change to a simpler way!!

You can juse use fake email addresses. Like john.doe@fakeemail.com

Or, I just want to add a debt owed to me for my own personal information. Being able to simply add the individual name and the amount they owe me without inviting them to Splitwise.

Bang on! It’s hugely frustrating with large groups. It should be possible to essentially run an”offline” group where you can add custom names and manage the group on behalf of everyone, as I have found some people really don’t get splitwise and it ends up being more of a hindrance than a help when user error get involved.

100% agree. This is a dealbreaker for large group trips

I know that I can add new members without their addresses on web app. But normally I have only my smartphone with me. And on Android it is not possible.
