Why list individual expenses when one cannot record individual payments? It's called "parallel structure" - it makes sense.

Yeah, I get the idea that you want to keep the app simple, but after I partially settle it still says I "owe" money for this, which I don't because I paid a specific amount based on the specific debts I was paying.

In short, I am seriously OCD, and the fact that I cannot record individual debts as paid offends every molecule of my hyper-ordered being. :-)

Anybody who want this exclusive feature can pay $999999999999 to splitwise :) it will be available for him. Cheers...!!!

When I see that my debts are settled- I want to see each time (which date) i settled my balance. That time I can control my budget better

How do I create a group on Splitwise which I will be updating daily? How can I maintain this group when everyday some one else is paying the money?

It's been 5 years of planning, where is this feature?

Add Android Pay as well!

Yeah

Justin Clifford's comment makes sense! Just spent over an hour trying to calculate whether one of my roommates was partially responsible for a late fee for not paying on time. This would help a lot!

I actually disagree and hope that you will never implement this. Splitwise is great for its simplicity and rolling balance philosophy. I feel like this capability would only over-complicate things. If some guy owes me $50, I don't really care if that $50 is slated for expense A or expense B. All that matters is the guy needs to pay me $50. Despite reading every comment below to try to enlighten myself, I still can't figure out a possible situation where this would ever be useful.

Also, "Simplify Debts" is by far the best feature of Splitwise. Applying a payment to a specific expense definitely breaks down there.

Just wanted to share my $0.02 with the dissenting opinion.

I definitely think that these points are all valid. And to keep the topic fresh for the Splitwise team, I am adding my request for a need to somehow show a specific items as being paid. Someone suggested even a strikethrough feature that would better than nothing. Maybe this will speed up your creative juices. This feature would be worth a $.99 one-time charge if you added it!

Came to Splitwise from SpotMe, and the way they did it was actually pretty simple. Each expense had its own balance and they were all added up into a main balance per person. If you decided to make a payment by selecting the person, rather than a specific expense, the payment would apply to the oldest amount(s) that were still not yet settled. So for example, if you had expense 1 of $20, expense 2 of $10, and expense 3 of $5, and you didn't pick a specific expense before adding a payment, and paid $31, expense 1 and 2 would be settled, with the payment being linked to both of them, and expense 3 would have $1 settled and $4 remaining, also with the payment being linked to it.

My roommate has paid some bills but not all, so i cant make it easy without my own calculations ot figure out remainder of what he owes

As a user who shared bills in splitwise and indicates payments for those bills

I'd like to be able to click on a bill entered and click 'Pay/Paid'. This will then open up a settle up screen with the details which I can then updated(cost and date).

To take this a step further, it'd be great if then the bill and payment was linked. I don't need to track the cost difference of bill to payment...just would like to be able to link.

So that it is easier to track non-bulk payments and so that I can choose what to pay off when, especially if I'm using an integrated payment option (which I can't cause I'm in Aus :( please get PayPal working!!!!)

Please add this feature, as suggested in the comments a strike through or icon will be sufficient!

A suggestion to this issue could be to strikethrough all expenses that have been paid for when settling up. That would be helpful for those who dont pay the full amount but want to show what has been paid for at that time.

Add an icon on the main page or when clicking on individual items to show paid expenses or just change the expenses that are paid to be a lighter color such as grey or strikethrough the text to show it was previously paid. For those that enter in expenses early such as the Electric bill that is due in 2 weeks it can get confusing when it gets paid for early since the "person paid $ on this date" shows up before that item is actually due so it looks like it wasnt paid yet.

Pleaseeeeee add this feature. This is the ONLY limiting feature for this app. I so badly want to use this but this simple lacking feature is preventing it from being great.

Hello I have just started using split wise. Great app. It would be great if there is possibility to settle each bill separately. If I entered 3 bills from friend Sam so instead of deducting amount from total amount owing .. It may settle it towards 1st bill so that way it's easy to track which bill is settled . In this case 2 bills are still outstanding. It will also make easy to make partial payments towards bigger amount owning. Thank you

I think it would be very useful to be able to tick a completed bill.
So for example - if I need $150 for Utilities and $100 for Rent, and I receive $150 from my friend for Utilities but they still owe Rent...
I should be able to select an option "Utilities has been settled"

Does this make sense?

Instead of just adding all debt together it would be nice to be able to view it categorized and then select which has been paid off.

Thanks!!!

In group, if there is particular bill for trip or dinner, i just wanted to clear that amount. I shoulb able to repay only that amount by selecting particular bill.
