Bote

Split shared group expenses and settle up with minimal transfers
New in version 3.0
• Hourly background sync and a "sync now" button with clear error messages
• Invitation QR: always fits and scans on the first try
• Optional end-to-end encryption of synced data
• Attachments per event (photos and PDFs, local only)
• Full backup to a single file
• Configurable name (goodbye literal "Me")
• Simpler closing: per-entry "paid" is gone
• Detects your outgoing Bizum to mark you as settled
• New icon (money bag) and assorted fixes
Bote manages the shared accounts of a group of people: create one card per
event, note who paid for what and how it is split, and get the final report
with the minimum set of transfers needed to settle up.

Features:

* Event cards with avatar, date, location, title and description.
* Attendees added from your contacts or by hand, each with a colored initials
avatar.
* Entries (a good or service paid by one person) with an icon category and
budgeted, spent and paid amounts.
* Split by faders: equal parts or custom percentages, with pins to lock a
share so moving one fader redistributes only the open ones.
* Final report with who pays whom, category breakdown and per-user payment
marks.
* Serverless sharing: an event travels as a JSON file or a QR code and merges
entry by entry (last edit wins, payment marks never lost, deletions stick).

Optional automatic cloud sync against a user-provided Supabase / PostgREST
server is available but disabled by default; every event defaults to
local-only sharing. The app is fully usable offline.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
