6 REASONS
50/50 splits add up against someone every week
If one roommate buys steak and another buys rice, splitting the receipt evenly moves real money from one to the other. Over a year, that adds up to hundreds of dollars.

A fair grocery split charges each person for their own items and divides only the shared things, like paper towels and milk, between the people who use them.

Snap the receipt and TipSplit reads every line item and price, so nobody types anything in. Then you tap an item and tap a name, and shared items like paper towels split only between the people who had it.
