Common questions
My receipt didn’t scan correctly
Retake the photo with the receipt flat, in good light, and filling most of the frame. Long receipts can be photographed in more than one shot. You can always fix an item’s name or price, or add one by hand, on the review screen before you split.
How is the bill split?
Each person pays for the items assigned to them. Shared items are divided between the people sharing them. Tax and tip are split in proportion to what each person ordered, so someone who ordered more pays a bigger share of the tip.
If you turn on rounding, everyone else’s share is rounded and yours absorbs the difference, so the total always adds up.
What’s a quick split?
For when you don’t want to itemize: enter the total, how many people there were, and optionally the tip and tax, and BiteBuddy splits it evenly.
Does BiteBuddy send or receive money?
No. BiteBuddy works out who owes what and helps you ask for it: a text message with your Venmo or Zelle details, or a Venmo request. The money itself moves in those apps, never through BiteBuddy.
Do I need an account?
No. There are no accounts, and your splits are stored only on your phone.
How do I delete my data?
Swipe left on a split to delete it, or uninstall the app to remove everything. We don’t keep your receipts or splits on our servers. The privacy policy has the details.
