Receipt splitting · Read on your iPhone · No account

A Tab alternative
that also asks for the money.

Tab is the classic simple iPhone bill splitter: you snap the receipt and tap the items. RightSplit works the same way at the table and carries on after it. Each person gets a message with their exact amount and a tap-to-pay link, and with Pro+ a Live Activity on your Lock Screen shows who has paid and who still owes you.

How does RightSplit compare to Tab?

Both apps turn a photo of the receipt into items you tap onto people. The differences are in what happens after the split, and in what you pay.

Reading the receipt

RightSplit: Apple Intelligence reads it on an eligible iPhone with Apple Intelligence turned on (iOS 26 or later); every other iPhone uses an on-device scanner. It reads receipts in 16 languages, the photo stays on the phone, and every line is editable.

Tab: Photo-and-tap workflow; how the receipt is read is not publicly documented.

Getting paid back

RightSplit: One message per person with their amount and a tap-to-pay link for Venmo, PayPal.me, Revolut, Wise, IBAN, or Apple Pay. With Pro+, a Live Activity tracks who has paid, and a reminder comes a day later if someone hasn't.

Tab: Built around working out each person's total at the table.

Pricing

RightSplit: Equal splits and your first scan are free. Pro+ is $3.99/yr or $7.99 once, and adds unlimited scans and item splits.

Tab: Free app on the App Store, item splitting included.

Privacy

RightSplit: No account, no ads, and no third-party analytics or SDKs. Receipts, amounts, and names stay on your iPhone. See the transparency entry.

Tab: See its App Store privacy label.

Questions

FAQ

What is the best Tab alternative for iPhone?

RightSplit fits if you like Tab's scan-and-tap workflow and want the app to collect the money too. You scan the receipt, tap who had each item, and Send Payment Requests writes one message per person with their exact amount and a tap-to-pay link for Venmo, PayPal.me, Revolut, Wise, IBAN, or Apple Pay. With Pro+, a Live Activity on your Lock Screen counts people off as they pay. There is no account, and the receipt is read on your iPhone.

Is RightSplit free like Tab?

Partly. Equal splits with tip, fair rounding, your last five splits, split templates, 12 widgets, and your first receipt scan are free for good. Unlimited scans and splitting by item are part of Pro+, at $3.99 a year after a 3-day free trial, or $7.99 once. If you only need free item splitting, Tab is the better pick.

Does RightSplit upload receipt photos?

No. On an iPhone with Apple Intelligence turned on (iOS 26 or later on an eligible iPhone), Apple Intelligence reads the receipt on the device. Every other iPhone uses an on-device scanner built on Apple's text recognition. The photo is never uploaded, there is no cloud sync, and RightSplit carries no third-party analytics or ad SDKs.
