IOU: Easily Split Your Tab Reviews

by Beethoven678

“this app Pro” is not optional if you want to upload a receipt. The upgrade claims to unlock ‘unlimited’ receipt uploads, but the limit without paying is actually zero uploads. There is also no option for a lifetime unlock which unfortunately is a nonstarter for me.

This is an okay app that could be great. First and foremost, its analysis of a sample receipt produced A LOT of erroneous fields that needed to be deleted. This coupled with IOU 's inability to apply negative values for discount line items makes it not much quicker than calculating by hand. Furthermore, there must be a calculation error when splitting the bill since a quick sum of everyone's total was almost a dollar shy of the real total. Please fix these issues.

Finally, IOU 's tip calculation is simplistic and incorporates the sales tax rather than only the subtotal. Sales tax is already a percentage of the subtotal and is often >10% in some locales. Therefore, tipping on the total rather than the subtotal inflates the the selected tip percentage by more than you’d think. I've been using “Tip Calculator +++” by Aaron Jubbal for years since it accounts for this. Including this functionality would make “this app: Easily Split Your Tab” the perfect app!

Looking forward to future versions!

IOU has potential to be absolutely awesome but I hate that I can’t see a history of things I’ve split. It would nice to keep track/history of things that have been split with the option to mark it as settled up or not.

In terms of accuracy for scanning of items, it’s very good. But app has issues- Please fix bug you have with splitting items. It’s dividing too many times!
For example- If the total cost of an item is $16 and I say split by 2, it makes it $4 each instead of what it should be which is $8 each! This happens the minute you click out of the line. It goes from $8 to $4.
Also- Changing the cost totals is extremely aggravating. I have to manually position the cursor to EACH decimal point. I can’t just type out 8.00. I have to first position cursor to the number 4. Then delete that. Then type 8. Then delete the 0 next to it. Then manually move cursor to the after decimal portion. Manually first delete the number there. Then position cursor AGAIN to the first position after decimal. Do you have any idea how much time that takes when I have to correct your already incorrect split calculation for like 8 different lines??

I paid money for IOU. So I expect it to work properly and not split by 4 instead of 2!
Please fix issues.

There are a couple issues I have had. One is that if you don't enter tax it pops up telling you to fix. I'm currently in Oregon where there is no tax so this is an issue. There are a few other minor issues but overall it is pretty awesome.

IOU makes it so easy to split a tab when you’re out with a lot of friends. I love that it gives you the option to send an itemized receipt to each person in your party with their specific items and the cost / tax / tip breakdown so it’s very to clear to everyone what they’re paying for. I got IOU because I tried a different splitting app and it was not good at all. IOU does everything I want it to and it also super cheap. Highly recommend everyone get IOU!! Especially foodies and people with large friend groups.
