Spendaway Pocket screen with exchanges and the real average rate
Pockets

Cash counted at what it really cost you.

When you change money at a booth, log the rate you actually got. Every cash purchase from that pocket is then counted at that rate, not at a rate from the internet. Card purchases add your bank’s percent fee. The total at the end of the trip is the money really gone.

Split

Split with friends, fewest transfers.

One person keeps the book. Mark who paid and who shares each expense. Spendaway shows each person’s balance and the smallest set of payments that settles it. Share the result as text.

Through your private iCloud, or with a backup file you save from Settings.
