Tab - The simple bill splitter for Positive User Reviews
✓ Amazing app!This app is great for bill splitting! Pretty simple and user friendly. I think the only thing I’d add is to have it completely connected to Venmo/Apple Pay/ G Pay/ and even Splitwise! The addition of splitting items with venmo / cash app / apple pay / g pay / etc would allow for certain users to send money in any way they’d like and to request items too. I think if Splitwise & Tab got together it would be an absolute beast of a way to split things and dinners as a sub section!.Version: 3.96.0
✓ App is glitchyNew: Their response team has been absolutely wonderful and super communicative, we figured it out and I’m super happy with the app again. Went from 3 stars back to 5 stars, super impressed that they reached and wanted to figure this out together. thank you guys soooooo much!! Old: The last two times ive used this, the was completely inaccurate, the subtotal was nearly double the bill but the split was somewhat evened up - it was off by $4-5 which doesnt sound like alot but it is when you are the one paying the difference after everyone had already paid and its happened more than once. Please fix!🙏🙏🙏.Version: 3.11
✓ Life changingNot to be dramatic but this app absolutely changed my life! Group dinners & brunches are no longer stressful and awkward! I tell everyone I know about how incredible this app is. The recent update that lets you see everyone’s totals & breakdowns together at the end is great. Love that you can do on the spot or upload a photo and sort out later. It’s transformative - get this app and make group outings a breeze!! Oh: The only weird thing is that names can only have 4 letters (why?!) nothing major just odd..Version: 3.51
✓ Great potential!Great app but there are some features I’d love to see in the future! Splitters each with a unique color for easier organization (maybe opening up the possibility for a dark theme or choosing the color gradient in settings), splitters’ names longer than 5 characters, ability to add additional surcharges (3% health tax), itemized individual receipts that can be shared in-app via text message or other social media, compatibility with iMessage or a URL link to claim items on receipt without downloading the app (à la Jackbox games), ability to edit item list/taxes while pulling up the image of the receipt (in case the receipt has already been thrown away or lost), and saved common splitters. I’m also not too into having the camera on in the main menu without selecting New Bill. I’ve also encountered a bug where the item name is uneditable. The workaround I’ve found is Select All > Delete and then manually entering the correct item name..Version: 3.23
✓ Simple and functionalIntuitive app, very easy to use. Does what it says on the tin. Would recommend.Version: 2.11
✓ Highly recommended; used oftenI recommend this app to my friends whenever I go out to eat! It is super easy to use — you just take a photo of the bill and then the app magically itemizes the bill. You can then correct anything per line and rename items. After you do so, you can then add each person, and then select which item they had. It’s also super useful if splitting one dish between multiple people. The app then calculates all the tip, tax, and then the totals PER person (also itemizes in detail). If your friends have the app and are linked to Venmo, you can request in-app. It’s a game changer and I use it all the time when eating out. I’m sometimes able to request (and receive) payment from all my friends even before the waiter picks up the check! Again, highly recommended..Version: 3.64
✓ Super useful app!I’ve become the de facto accountant of the friends group now when we go out! Tab makes it easy for everyone to split and pay what they have instead of just dividing equally which can get messy, tedious not to mention unfair to the people who have less! I also like the interface, simple and to the point, text-based sharing rather than requiring everyone to create accounts etc. I took one star off because the OCR doesn’t work consistently. Inputting a receipt with 10+ items is not an option. I hope the developers constantly exploring options to improve thi’s bottle neck! There are many AI innovations in OCR these days, it’s good to keep up!.Version: 3.112.0
✓ Makes Life Simpler!!Love the app - I think it successfully plays its part in making one common thing much simpler. It’s easy to understand and rarely has mistakes. One thing that I’d love to see fixed is the use of Venmo within the app. I can’t seem to use it because of error messages every time, stating that it needs to be on iPhone user’s account or something confusing along those lines. If Venmo can be incorporated in a much easier way, this app would be air-tight! Love it..Version: 3.21
✓ This app is amazingThere are a few weird functionality things that I wish would be fixed or modified (happy to provide feedback if the developers reach out) but all in all this app has saved our friends group so much time and energy splitting the bill. We have a few people that don’t drink, or only eat special or specific food and so when we go out a few people always owe a lot more than others. This app is so easy to use, we use it all the time now. 1. I didn’t understand how the birthday button worked, but now that I do I love it! Allocate everything and then hit the button and say whose bday it is and it splits it amongst everything. 2. We had a weird tax on the bill last night and it took us a while to figure out how to edit it. There were 2 “sub” taxes listed and a total and the app added all 3 in. 3. It’s hard to label the bill. You have to go back in and hit it from a weird screen. 4. I love that I can text the breakdown of the costs to my friends, but like the layout and info of the breakdown in the app. Might be nice if you could text the image of the breakdown by person, instead of the whole thing, or for it to make a pdf of the breakdown that I could text to everyone! All in all the app is great and with weird situations the app usually has a response, it’s just hard to figure it out when that happens. We all love it. Most useful app I own by far!!!!.Version: 3.52
✓ Impressive!This app is impressive -- but more importantly super useful. I was surprised to see it picked up every item on the receipt correctly and then assigning them out was easy. Honestly it was faster than using the iPhone calculator. A few requests to make this app even better: 1) make it an iMessage app so I can share it with people who don't have the app 2) history of your receipts and breakdowns beyond the summary and 3) sorry maybe it's just me but the live camera background drives me crazy! Definitely try this app!.Version: 2.14
✓ Great!Love this app! Ability to scan in bills is such a nice feature. Only thing— currently the bills don’t save after you finish them (even tho app gives confirmation that bills will be saved), Feature request: make the ability to have a “full page” screen shot (makes a really long scrollable screen shot, built in feature for iPhone if content is flagged correctly I believe), then I could send friends the breakdown much easier..Version: 3.100.0
✓ Amazing idea but execution could be betterI spent a few hours trying to find an app that can snap and OCR receipts. Tab was the only one I’ve found and it looked very promising. Unfortunately for my specific use case it didn’t work out well, but I still believe it’s a great app. A few notes for devs, hope this could be useful: - Since my checks are in foreign language I have to translate these using Google Translate and save image of translated receipts. Luckily Tab can use receipt image! Unfortunately it’s OCR capability seems to be limited, it can’t handle these translated receipts well, even text actually look nice and sharp. Probably just need better OCR library. - Somewhere closer to final step it tells me that $23 is not distributed. I expect a shortcut here to let me quickly fix this. It’s not here. Also on a step where items are marked it could do better job showing issues like not assigned items. - Not all receipts are in USD, people in other countries use other currencies 😏.Version: 3.101.0
✓ This is the best app I have installed on my phoneThis solves every pain point associated with going to dinner with a group of folks. Servers will love you because you don’t have to hand over seven cards with amounts to charge on the back. Your dining companions will love you because nobody has to pull out a pen and calculate what everyone owes (and then end up guessing on tax+tip), AND it solves the “I just had salad and she had two cocktails I don’t want to split this evenly” problem. I cannot speak highly enough off this app: it’s intuitive, beautiful, and unobtrusive. It’s PHENOMENAL..Version: 3.31
✓ This app is awesomeLove the app!! Overall a 4.9/5 for me, there were certain parts of the process that weren’t so obvious at first but could easily be figured out by revisiting. For example, The item assignment for claiming bill items. Upon arriving at the final page to pay, I realized items were unclaimed as it wasn’t entirely obvious in the moment. Finding a way to make it obvious the first iteration would be awesome, but that’s a difficult design question. Other aspects were related to the Venmo integration having issues, but that’s prob just a backend integration issue..Version: 3.108.0
✓ Almost perfect.This is the best receipt-scanning bill splitter I’ve found on the App Store. The scanning is accurate, and it’s relatively intuitive to assign items to different people. The one glaring omission, unless it’s there and I just can’t figure out how to do it, is that there’s no way to enter more than one tax. The country & region I live in has multiple sales taxes as well as liquor tax that are usually itemized separately on the bill. But Tab only scans in one tax, and doesn’t have the ability to add more. So I then need to get out another calculator to add the taxes up and then edit the tax row that Tab put in. Pretty annoying. I’m not sure if this app is still being developed, but if the developer reads this, please add this feature request! Thanks!!.Version: 3.64
✓ Helpful But Needs a Fix!Ever since my friends have shown me the Tab app, it’s made large group outings at restaurants so much easier. I have used it multiple times now and until last night, have not had any problems. Unfortunately after scanning my receipt, the app did not pick up on the tax amount listed on the receipt, and instead listed it as $0. I understand that sometimes the text may be hard to recognize on receipts, but please add a manual edit option to the tax/tip screen in case any of the amounts need to be modified. Other than that, overall amazing and helpful app!.Version: 3.75.0
✓ Excellent App!This App does exactly what it says on the tin. The interface is intuitive, and offers every option I can think of. On the rare occasion that the bill scanner OCR misses an item, it’s easy to add it manually. One can let one diner pay zero, if, for example, it’s their birthday, one can divide things like appetisers amongst the friendship group members, or, as the excellent FAQ explains, divvy it up where one diner eats 9 tacos, and the other just 1. One can set the tip in % or as a fixed, manually entered sum, which is then applied proportionately, across the diners, according to their meal cost. A top class App, that I wholeheartedly recommend! I tried around 10 others, but this far surpasses any other IMHO. IB.Version: 3.75.0
✓ This is the best app to have when going out with groups of friendsSeriously, where has this been my whole life. I’ve used this app for the last 8 months or so and it’s been a life saver. So much quicker than trying to manually add up everyone’s bill with tax and tip, and even figuring out how to split shared items! Love the ability to adjust the tip % and also birthday feature that lets you treat someone by splitting it up equally! Everyone I have recommended it to also loves it!!.Version: 3.31
✓ My literal favorite appGreatest, most functional app for eating out or doing activities with friends. Makes it so insanely easy to know who owes how much; no more having to awkwardly request a restaurant split the bill 10 ways. The photo scanner makes it super easy, the receipt items & tax are always accurate. Plus, you can save the receipts so can always access them again if needed. Don’t know what I’d do without this.Version: 3.80.0
✓ Your big group is now your server’s favorite tableIf you love going out to eat with friends and being your server’s favorite table by asking for one check - this is the app for you. Take a picture of the itemized check, take note of what you tipped and that’s all you need. This has made group trips and big dinners out a breeze, so you can grab those CC points without worrying about getting stuck with any extra beyond what your share is!.Version: 3.103.0
✓ Almost perfectThis app is is very intuitive to use- can you do the math in your head/with a calculator? Of course, but if you are looking at an app like this chances are you want to just make things easier. I like that you can keep track of the food someone ate and then use the "birthday" feature to split their share amongst everyone else. My one real gripe is that once you finish dividing up a tab you can't see the itemized receipt, only the totals for each person. Fix this feature and I will have no complaints..Version: 2.14
✓ Love the app, but...I would REALLY love to see the ability to put in a custom tip amount rather than putting in a percentage. I usually calculate what people owe me after I’ve left dinner. So the tip is already done. And I can’t edit the tip on here to be exact, it can only be the closest percentage point. EDIT: Thanks for the tip! (No pun intended, lol) Would be awesome if the Tip field were able to be touched to edit manually, then it would totally intuitive. But otherwise, the workaround is definitely doable! Thanks again!!.Version: 3.23
✓ Stop anxiously wondering “How the hell are we going to split this?!”So easy to use to split a bill evenly! Everyone plays exactly what they owe. The app makes it so easy to divide up an itemized receipt, and even adds a feature to divide a birthday person’s bill among the whole party. For those who get great points on credit card purchases, you’ll want to be the person to put your card down and have everyone Venmo you 😉.Version: 3.21
✓ Love!I really love this app and think everyone should download it! It’s definitely user friendly and really simplifies group meals (which I’ve often avoided in the past because of splitting the bill lol). I do have one qualm tho! I was the one to put down my card and noticed that the total bill amount did not equal the bill amount on the actual receipt. Later when I got home, I realized that Tab based the tip on the subtotal BEFORE tax whereas the restaurant based the tip on the subtotal WITH tax (which is a much higher amount). If there’s a way to change that so the user has the option to change which total is taxed, that would be great! :).Version: 3.31
✓ Incredible app to split bills at restaurantsThe functionality and user experience in this app is unparalleled. I’ve been looking for a good bill splitting app for a long time and this one is perfect. Snap a quick pic of the bill, it recognizes each line item and lets you assign a recipient to each plate. It then let’s you go even further and not only identify items that were shared - but also items that were shared unevenly. Meaning you can charge different percentages of the shared plate to different people. It takes all the complication out of splitting the bill and allows easy sharing the split bill calculations/breakdowns with friends. I will be using this app constantly. GAME CHANGER!.Version: 3.64
✓ Must-Have AppThis app has changed everything. Gone are the days of getting stuck tipping way more than you owe because your friends were ordering top shelf cocktails and you were drinking water and at the end you just split tip and tax. It's so fast, so easy, and takes all the awkwardness out of telling everyone what they owe at the end of a meal. Being able to split things, to break up items that servers group together.. it's like the app developers have thought of everything. The ONLY qualm I have with tab is that the bills disappear after a bit. Would really help the morning after a night out to be able to review receipts from the night before. Other than that, WOW. Amazing..Version: 2.14
✓ Extremely helpful app, but only in US!Thank you so much for this amazing app! I know it from New York. But we had recently a dinner with 11 people in Arosa, CH, with unbalanced foods and drinks. I showed it to my people, but they could not use it as it was not in their app store. The app worked great also with their receipt, and just printed „USD“ instead of „CHF“. But the numbers from the check were parsed correctly. So how difficult would it be to change the currency sign, adjust the tax, connect with „paymit“ (CH variant of Venmo) and open to the Swiss app store? Thanks so much!.Version: 3.21
✓ Love this AppLove this app and think it's the best thing to make splitting checks painless and fair. It even let's you split a single line item across multiple people - which I just figured out. I wish they'd consider a more intuitive UX for this - like clicking on the item for it to pop-up with a list of everyone on the bill and selecting all those that it applied to. That said, it ROCKS and getting the ability to send the results of everything over text without anyone having to download the app gets rid of any concerns about if you split the bill correctly. Great job - would love to see this sold as a feature to a payment company like Venmo!.Version: 3.77.0
✓ My favorite app right now, minor change suggestedI absolutely love the ease that Tab provides in splitting the bill with friends. Many of my favorite restaurants don’t offer split checks, which used to cause a lot of confusion and frustration when paying the bill, but now I immediately pull up the Tab app. My friends that are unfamiliar with the app are amazed and download it right away. The only thing I have trouble with is the Venmo sync feature. I have successfully connected my Venmo account, but can’t seem to request payment from my friends using Venmo via the Tab app. I get a message that the phone’s owner must make the request and am not able to proceed. This app easily warrants a 5 star review with this feature corrected!.Version: 3.21
✓ So easy to useEver tried to split a bill whilst at a restaurant. It can get so embarrassing while everyone try’s to chip in on the working out. Really wish I had came across this app sooner. Simply took a picture of the bill. Selected who had what, bang a price to pay for each party. It even worked discounts out..Version: 3.101.0
✓ Perfect for a night out with friendsThe app is great! Saved me a lot of time having to figure out and split what all my friends ordered. There are just some small things I would fix about it such as being able to save friend’s names for multiple bills and maybe a better view of the existing bill (mine saved 4 times not sure why). But overall definitely 5 stars!.Version: 3.93.0
✓ My Favorite App and Here’s Why!My friends make fun of me because any chance I get, I pitch Tab to everyone who will listen. I used to have so much anxiety before going out to dinner with friends because I dread the uncertainty of how to split the bill. Now with Tab, I’m the first person to offer to Tab it and perfectly split the bill fairly every time. Thank you so much, developers, for making this great app and seriously improving a pain point I’ve had for so long! If you live in a place that refuses to split your checks, get Tab and seriously never worry about it again..Version: 3.11
✓ Better than all other bill splitting appsI recently was asked to try Plates when I was out with a party of 13. The app is pretty, but when it comes to functionality and splitting checks, Tab is the best. Take a photo and it will automatically note all of the dishes and $$. I love that you can add people to the bill, not just random plates (looking at you Plates). Would highly recommend Tab to anyone going out with large parties where you need to split the check 😎.Version: 3.107.0
✓ Amazing AppI had this idea tonight while I was with friends. As a designer and product developer, I couldn’t do this better myself. Good work guys!! Grandma everything so well and makes life way easier. Only tip for design would be to separate the section where it says the person that already claimed item. This should be a different color or more bold so it’s easier to tell what’s already been claimed on the tab! But other than that, you have a fan! Now I don’t have to stress about splitting the bill anymore. Good work guys!.Version: 3.01
✓ Responsive developersAfter having used this app quite a lot, I realized that the only complaint I had with it was the lack of conclusion screen that shows all the person/bill-total pairs in the same screen. I reached out to customer support and they replied very quickly and updated me on plans to incorporate this feature in the future. I appreciate how the developers continue to iterate on the design to meet users needs..Version: 2.14
✓ Best tab splitting app!I have tried SplitWise and Tab. I found Tab to be very easy to use and works fast. I like how sometimes it splits 3 orders of an item into 3 separate items, however sometimes it doesn’t and groups them into 1 item. I am the only one in my parties who has this app so I split the tab for everyone. My Recommendation to developers would be an easier way for me to text send the split results to a group of cell phones..Version: 2.15
✓ Great productFirst time user! Love the app already, made life so much easier for me and my family when dining together. Only have two suggestions/questions: 1. I tried signing up a couple of times and each email that I got with the link would not take me anywhere once I clicked on it. Just sent me to my google chrome but nothing would happen. 2. I would suggest a feature to put the tip percentage including the tax as a percentage of the tip. My family and friends usually always tip of the total (subtotal plus tax) rather than just the subtotal. Thank you and I love the app so far!.Version: 3.53
✓ Almost perfect!I'm really hoping the developers read this! Just installed it today and used it for grocery shopping, not the most intended thing but it worked out well! Then I ran it through say ordering take out from delivery or uber eats and that's where it falls short just barely. It would be fantastic to have a flat fee option near the end that gets split equally among everyone for things like service fees or delivery fees. This fee shouldn't be taxed or influence it. I think once that gets added the app will be perfect to use In restaurants and for delivery services with friends. Seems like a perfect fit for this cpvid influenced world..Version: 3.64
✓ Love It!This is a great app. One suggestion I have is to be able to edit a person’s name or have the ability to remove them all together. Other than that, this app is exactly what I’ve been needing! I will use this all the time now. At large dinners it was always a hassle to split bills and people would get charged equally for tip and tax but always felt it was unfair to get charged the same tip and tax rate when they got a cheaper meal - so this app solves that problem for me!.Version: 2.17
✓ Easy to Use, Skip the Headaches of Splitting the BillsIt takes into account the individual dishes, cost of those dishes, taxes, tips, and allow you to add names to one or multiple dishes (if you’re sharing). Then after all of that it divides taxes and tips based on your subtotal!!! There’s also an option to split the birthday boy/ girl’s meal, how great is this app! I always use it at group meals, it’s so hard to go without it once you’re use to it. If you need something like this, get it right now!!! I don’t normally write app reviews but this app really deserves a 5 star review!.Version: 3.96.0
✓ Nothing like it 5 starsThis application is amazing! I recommend it to everyone I can. They are just always shocked. Some updates are needed to the app though. The layout doesn’t fit on my iPhones screen and buttons are cut off. Also having trouble uploading receipts from my library for splitting. Says check my data. But I tried over both wifi and celular and still same issue. No problem when uploading directly from the camera lens. I’m still gonna give this app a 5 because it’s amazing. Hope you have the time to fix some of these bugs :).Version: 3.84.0
✓ Overall decent app! Very usefulI don’t get the negative reviews - as a bill splitter with photo scan it’s pretty great. Even as a Canadian. Devs - overall Ui feels okay, feels like lazy coding with how you’re handling nicknames, but overall the UX is pretty solid. I wish it was more useful to Canadians as we don’t have venmo, and the biggest let down is the request functionality. I was hoping this would create a clean little jpg of the persons items and total cost breakdown with large cut-out price and their name on it, that I could send via iMessage. Maybe a custom QR code for easy etransfer functionality. Could be an easy branding opportunity - here’s an easy freebie :).Version: 3.84.0
✓ Love the app!I love the app. It helped me split the check fairly between 11 people. It was easy to use. But I do have a few suggestions. I usually have a meal with a big group(10-20) and everyone wants a separate check. When the restaurant will not do that I will pay the check and then tell everyone what they owe. Most of the group is technically challenged (seniors) so have no clue how to use an app or do not want to so I get stuck with figuring out the check. It would be helpful if; 1. I could identify the group before I get the check, 2. Be able to see a snapshot of the details for one person at a time after I identify what they had as part of the totals so I could show them and 3. Allow cents when entering a tip (sometimes when using a credit card we add a tip amount that would round the total) 4. For me the most important one would be to be able somehow to show all the details of the bill when emailing it or texting it or printing it. It only shows the “All Up” $ and a list of the items assigned to each person but not the detail prices, taxes, tip, etc. for each person..Version: 3.96.0
✓ This app is a must haveRarely do I write reviews. This app has likely saved me money (of me missing a few dollars/cents trying to figure out this math on my own) and so many headaches splitting bills of large groups at restaurants that do not want to take the time to do separate checks. Over time, I have actually found it easier to just use this app rather than asking the server to do separate checks. In my experience with Tab, if you’re willing to do the work of figuring out who got what yourself, your servers get the order right, your food comes quicker (since they don’t have to spend a long time at the computer typing everything in carefully), and it makes the experience for the group better as a whole. A few feature suggestions: Appetizers: A conversation that tends to come up when deciding who got what is “well this person are more of this than this person.” Can you create a way to say “this person had 4 of 12 items from this” instead of splitting it 12 ways and tapping it four times? Technically the app does this, but it requires a bit of extra taps. Alcohol: Guests may feel it’s appropriate to tip more for elaborate cocktails than they would for a pizza. Servers also tip out the bartender. Is there a way to figure out how to skew tips up based on how much of the bill was alcohol? For example, 15% for the food, 20% for the alcohol..Version: 3.107.0
✓ Very ConvenientA great simple app for splitting the tab at a restaurant. Great for people like myself, an Australian, going to America who don’t normally have to add tax or tips to a bill..Version: 2.17
✓ Too good to be trueBut it is - it works as good as the YouTube video by Hollywood Frodo. Would take a bit of practice, so do some test runs with some shopping receipts and go from there. If there’s anything listed that should not be there, then delete it. Cheers.Version: 3.31
