Very nice application, even graphically, which allows you to do everything without any registration or cost. Just go to the official website and press on Create a group. Now you can enter the name of the group and the symbol of the coin you used for example €.

Subsequently it will be possible to enter the name of the various participants, we tried to add several without problems, and set one as the default payer when entering new debts.

Now you have two ways to enter new expenses: manually or by automatically scanning a receipt which will try to understand and automatically enter the amount spent. If you do it manually you will have to enter a title for the expense, the day, the category and obviously the amount paid. You will then have to say who paid and add who paid for. Once you press on Create the figure will be inserted into the group. From here it is now possible to move between the various tabs to see who owes money to whom and how much they owe.

Once finished you can share the URL with anyone, but be careful because the shared URL allows you to both see and modify the various expenses so it should be shared with caution.
