Allow us to pay back expenses individually for a person
When I have an expense from someone that's like "$1000 rent" and then "$10 food", I would be able to pay the food first and then rent later. But splitwise only allows me to pay of the $1100 at once, without separate payments.

Sorry for the confusion, but good news: you can record a partial repayment.
Click ‘settle up’. We pre-fill the payment field with your total balance, but you are welcome to edit it before saving to reflect that you repaid a different amount.

I'd also like the ability to settle specific expenses. I record a deposit amount and those I rent to must pay on their deposit over 6 months to a zero balance. Or, they might want to make an early payment on the Electricity bill that wasn't due for another week.

I wanted to add an expense to my group for which everyone had already paid me, that means that particular expense was already settled up, but I found no such option

So I added an electricity bill to my group.
It says:
_____ owes you _______
_____ owes you _______
_____ owes you _______
_____ owes you _______When I add money they paid me, this app ONLY records how much they have left to owe me with everything in total.
I can't even add that they DONT owe me electricity money. What the hell is the point of adding the feature of "_____ owes you _______"
If you can't put that they DONT owe me!!!
I thought this app was supposed to help make it easier with keeping track of bills but so far there's just a bunch of flaws.Also, I have complained about this but all they've said is "maybe this app isn't for you."
Obviously, yes, it isn't, but there's no other app that's better than this, and it still needs a lot of work.
This is just a feature that's common sense to have and is a big flaw in the app itself. I think the app developers need to actually USE this app with their roommates to see common mistakes in it.
