Bistromath - iphone 4

Bistromath

£1.79/$2.99 A brill bill-splitter

The App Store is groaning under the weight of tip calculators, but they're of limited usefulness. Even beautifully finished apps just have you enter the amount, how many people there are, a tip and then split it. But what if you had soup and your friend plumped for steak? And what if Sandra has the correct money, but Peter only has a £50 note? Bistromath solves all this.

Enter the cost of what everyone's having - if you want to take the time, you can even tap through and pick from a handful of configurable options to keep track of whether you're entering a drink, a main, a side or whatever - and the real genius comes when you realise that you can define anything as being shared among more than one person. A bowl of chips that three of you stole from? Easy. The cost is split three ways and apportioned to each of the three.

Once you're done, and have decided on a tip percentage, Bistromath shows you how much each person owes. Better still, you can tell it how much each individual has put in the pot, and it'll calculate how much change they need.
