What's new

Chillmates is a shared expense tracker for households — split costs between people and families, keep track of shared to-dos, and settle up.

New

• Households — create a house or join one with an invite code, as yourself or your whole family, and split expenses between parties.
• Expense splitting — equal or custom splits across people and families, with "who paid / who still owes" and one-tap settle.
• AI receipt scanning — snap a photo (or PDF) and let it fill in the expense for you.
• Quests — shared to-dos per group, with recurring schedules and due-date buckets.
• Notifications — in-app bell, email, and installable push on phone and desktop, with a notification settings page.
• Dark mode — follows your system, or set it manually in Settings.
• Install as an app (PWA) — add Chillmates to your home screen and stay logged in.
• A refreshed home page with your monthly spending and a recent-activity feed.
