Thanks for the suggestions! I can see how this would be a useful feature. This is something we’ve been considering.

Aggregate Trip expenses
For trips category it makes sense to have a single chart/summary rather than having a month-wise one. With the month-wise one trips that go over the month-end are difficult to generate a report for.

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

Itemized or Detailed Balances
Select a person and return a detailed list of expenses.
e.g.
Dave owes $200.00
Gas $60.00
Electric $40.00
Cable $100.00The people in my group are always asking me for the details of what they owe.
18 votesWe’d definitely like a better way to explain exactly why you owe what you owe, but unfortunately it’s surprisingly tricky, since people often pay for things out of order. For now, your best option is probably to look at the printable summary page on our website, which gives a detailed breakdown of recent expenses for each person.

please show total amount in group expenses
While providin printable summary, the total group expenses should be given in it. man u save a hefty amount of our time. thank you great job man. luv u
18 votesThanks for the suggestion! I’ll pass this on – I know we already include totals for how much each individual person paid/owed, so it would make sense to include the total of all expenses, too :)

Add image/PDF from cloud storage service (Drive, Dropbox support)
I download electronic (PDF) versions of all my expense statements (electric bill, gas bill, etc) and save them to a folder in Google Drive. It would be great if I could attach the PDF file from Google Drive (or Dropbox, Box, iCloud whatever) to an expense, much like you can already attach a photo from the photo library.
21 votesInteresting idea! This isn’t anywhere on our timeline yet, but I’ll pass on the suggestion and add it to our list of possible future improvements.

Make each entry in "Recent activity" pop open the relevant expense
Currently, clicking on an item in "Recent activity" takes you to the group where the expense resides, but it doesn't actually show you the relevant entry in that group. Clicking on one of these entries should take you to the relevant group AND pop open the edit dialog for the expense, or at least highlight the expense on the list.
18 votesWe’ve got a version of this on the mobile apps. I expect we’ll bring something similar to the web app when we can find the time.

Please add Turkish Language support
You are great but please add Turkish Language support.
18 votesWe’d love to add Turkish as a language option in the future! Sorry that it’s not available yet.

"Should we buy" feature needed!
You guys should add a feature where a group member can suggest a group purchase and then members of the group can either support, down vote, or propose another item for purchase. When the eventual purchase item is approved the cost is then split amongst the approving members.
17 votesInteresting idea! We’ll definitely bring it up in our next feature-planning meeting :)

Make a show math option.
I think there should be a way to see how the math works out for everyone, because me and my roommates get very confused every once in a while.
17 votesShowing the breakdown of the simplification is something that we are going to be doing in a future update. I agree that showing how we got the totals we did within the debt simplification would be extremely helpful to our users (and myself!)

A ghost Entity
Another feature you could look at adding..
Scenario: 4 people in a house. Bob
goes on leave and should not be billed anything at all, but yet the old
records should remain.
At the easiest level, you could probably get a Ghost check box [not present in the house] on Bob's name and whenever you hit the Add Bill feature, Bob should be default unchecked.
Thanks!17 votesWe have a slightly different solution in mind, but it should handle this issue.

Feature reques: Move personal balance to group
In the knowledge base article "Why am I settled up in my friendship but still have balances with my friend in groups?", I learned that I can move the balance with A in group G to personal balance with A. However, I need to do the other way around: move the personal balance with A to group G. The story is like this: I owe $1 from A, B, C, D personally and separately, however, they are all in group G, so I would rather to move them to G so that I owe the group $4. Further, if there…
17 votesDefinitely makes sense! We’re working on better ways of settling up across both personal debts and group debts, because we know it’s a pain in the neck right now :) We hope to have new features to help with that soon!

Offer time banking!
I'm collaborating with a couple of friends on different projects and would love if you could add "Hours/Minutes" as a currency so we can use Splitwise as our time bank without having to decide and keep track of an artificial hourly rate.
Possible? Even prohibitive on the mobile version, how about a web app pilot? It would be a really progressive and fabulous thing to do.
17 votesHi there,
Really cool idea (and thanks for posting here as well as via email) – we’ll definitely think about it once most people are not using the version of iPhone OS that doesn’t support it (because our custom currency support would have to apply across all systems).

Feature request - calculate taxes!
I'd love to be able to calculate the final amount owed/someone owes directly with the app. E.g. if there's a 15% service tax on something my friend bought for $16.95, then it'll calculate the total for me and record that. Right now, I use a separate calculator, so it's a big hassle.
17 votesThanks for the suggestion – I’ll pass it on! Maybe there’s a smart way we can include an optional tip when entering a bill’s total cost.

make it easier to add a person to a group
It took me a couple of minutes to find how to add someone to a group which I felt was pretty hidden. I would've imagined that "add a person to group" would be in the right hand panel, or in the view full details overlay.
or ... if i clicked on a user, that I could have a dropdown to add a user to a group.
17 votesI can see how that might be a bit tricky to find – very sorry for the trouble! I’ll add this to our list of possible improvements for future updates.

expense sorting in group
It would be great and easier for the user to have the option of sorting the expenses based on amount, date, category,and payee in the group.
17 votesThanks for the suggestion – I’ll pass it on! For now, your best option is probably to export your group to a spreadsheet (by going to your group, then clicking the settings icon at the top of the right sidebar and choosing “Export as spreadsheet”), then using Excel or other spreadsheet programs to sort the output. How that helps!

Sign up using phone number-text
Like whatsapp, why not provide sign up using just a phone number / text.

Statistical data per category of expense.
Instead of naming the bill, make it so that you choose a category and add a comment. then export statistics per week or month for every kind of categorized expense so that we can have more info on the expenses.
17 votesHey there! We’d love to add better support for categories over time, and we already do support this to some extent. When adding an expense, tap on the expense icon to choose a category for the expense. Later, you can export a spreadsheet that includes category information about all of your expenses.
On our website, you can also view a monthly spending breakdown by category by clicking on the “Trends” button at the top of the right sidebar, then clicking the “View full details” link.

Export top level category name to CSV
Presently only the lowest level category name gets exported.
17 votesNot marking as planned yet, and will leave for others to upvote. We do hope to improve our category scheme / exports of it down the road. – Jon

Allow incoming bills be linked directly to Splitwise
Is there a feature where we could link our incoming bills for other users involved to see? If not, I'd love to see it. For example, it would be nice to have an electronic gas bill come in as a read only document so everyone paying can just look straight at the bill when it is received and not have to wait for someone to post what payment would be. I suppose it would be linked through your email acct and/or utility company. This transparency also allows people to be more on top of their payments, and more accountable should…
17 votesThanks for the suggestion! This does sounds like it would be useful, though it’s a pretty complex feature to add, so it’s not likely we’ll do this soon.
