    Interesting idea. I understand the use case – “don’t settle up until I add everything” is something I’ve heard friends of mine say anecdotally. So thanks for the suggestion!

    I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say this: every Splitwise group I create for trips has at least one premature "settle up" before all expenses are added or reviewed for accuracy. Premature payments negate the advantages of simplified debts to reduce transactions per person. My busy group chat today had two separate people ask just hours apart, "should I pay now?" when buried messages said to wait until tomorrow. Simplified debts is such a cool feature, but it's hard to evangelize for that feature or Splitwise as a whole when there are glaring pitfalls into failure. What's the status of this feedback?
