Note the dreadful UI on their app implementation! (You type something like '100:5,25,60' and invite someone to guess a number on each round)

Why wouldn't they do something like:

1. Enter the subtotal (becomes permanently printed at the top) 2. Enter successive item amounts, after each entry the app says 'pay' or 'continue'




True. The historical reason is that it was (well still is) originally a general biased coin flipper where you could enter any expression that evaluated to a probability. Then we added syntactic sugar for the case of restaurant bill splitting.

UI improvements welcome! Bethany has it on github: https://github.com/bsoule/Expectorant
