Sharing house? I made an App to calculate bills

ericliu001

Hi, the app is free and no ads ever.

I've made it to help you split utility bills among roommates in shared accommodations.

You can either split the bill based on how many days a member has lived in the house, which can easily be done by inputting the move-in-date or move-out-date of the member, or do a quick even division when everyone has a even share of the bill.

it available on Google Play

Hi Hailey, you certainly can use that 'app' to do even division.  :)

But things become a wee bit complicated when you have a new roommate who've just moved in 2 weeks ago and there's a 3-month electricity bill arrived, or you have someone who moved out 1 month ago and you only want him or her to pay bills for that month.   :top:

Believe me if you try my app,  you will find it's faster, easier to use, and it takes a lot less inputs.

Set up a spreadsheet on your computer.

That is one way to do it, but mobile phones are more handy.

The new roommate pays for 2 of the last 12 weeks, or 1/6.  The old roommate pays 1/3 of his share.
