Help answer the question: "Who should pay for this meal?"
I'm out to lunch with a subset of my friends. The bill arrives, we're all on Splitwise, but we're not sure who should pay to lower the overall balance on our Splitwise group, i.e. who owes the most at the table.
Via the Balance tab I can see the answer to this if everyone is present, but there are always a few people missing. I'd like to click "Who should pay?", check the boxes for everyone present, and get an immediate answer.
We’ve actually talked about this idea before – we think it’s a very neat concept, but we’re not sure if it merits inclusion in the core Splitwise app, since a lot of Splitwise users actually don’t use Splitwise in this way. However, it’s a great idea for a separate app, either from us in the future or from a 3rd-party developer using our API (http://dev.splitwise.com). Maybe someday! :)

Instead of splitting bills, with 2 or more people there should be the option to take paying for something in turns and what/where the last payment was.

it's like a smart feature which decides "who pays next?" because from the group activity we can know who has the most debt, hence it will be useful if a person comes to know of this, so that he or she can catch up with others by taking up the next turn to pay.
what do you think?
Because I noticed over a period of time, we lose tend to be careless to settle up, or maybe not everybody cares to check due amount and decides to take next turn to pay, hence this feature will encourage a person with the maximum due amount to pay next.
