A Splitwise alternative that you just type into
Splitwise is a well-known app for splitting shared expenses. TypeSplit does the same job with a different approach: you type each expense as a sentence, and the app works out the split and who owes whom.
What TypeSplit does differently
Typing instead of forms
Write “Alex paid 45 for dinner” and TypeSplit splits it automatically. No manual calculations. Custom splits are possible too; the demo card in the app shows examples.
Offline first, no account needed
Everything works locally on your phone without signing up. Only when you want to sync across devices or invite others to edit do the optional cloud features come in.
Multi-currency trips
Over 150 currencies with automatic conversion: track costs in local currency and see one total in your home currency.
Free, with unlimited expenses and no ads
The free plan has no limit on expenses and shows no ads. It includes up to 2 cards, cloud sync for both, and CSV and text export. Paid plans add unlimited cards (Pro), unlimited cloud-synced cards (Cloud / Bundle) and PDF export; prices are shown in the App Store and Google Play.
What Splitwise does well
Splitwise has a large user base, so there is a good chance your group already uses it. It also has a web app alongside its phone apps, and many integrations with other services. If those matter most to your group, Splitwise is a solid choice.
Side by side
On Splitwise, unlimited daily expenses, an ad-free experience, currency conversion and receipt scanning are Pro features (source: splitwise.com/pro). On TypeSplit, the first three are part of the free plan.
