If someone ordered extra food or a drink just for themselves, add that amount next to their name — everyone else won't be charged for it.

How it splits
The shared amount is divided evenly across everyone first. Then, whatever a person marked as their own extra — a dessert, a cocktail, anything ordered just for them — gets added only to their total. The tip percentage applies last, to each person's full total, so it scales with how much they actually had.
For a ₹3,000 shared bill between four people, with one person adding a ₹300 mocktail and a 10% tip: the other three each owe (750 × 1.10) = ₹825, and the one who ordered extra owes ((750+300) × 1.10) = ₹1,155.
Treating someone
Set a person's "Paid by" dropdown to someone else's name and their full share — shared amount, their own extras, tip and all — moves onto that person's total instead. They still appear in the results at ₹0, marked as treated, so the group can see everyone who was there, not just who's paying. One person can cover any number of others this way.
Common questions
How is this different from a plain tip calculator?
A tip calculator assumes everyone pays the same amount. This tool handles the common case where the shared food and drinks get split evenly, but one or two people also ordered something extra just for themselves — and only they should pay for that part.
What counts as the "shared" amount?
Anything the group ordered together — starters, a shared main, the table's drinks. Put that total in the shared field, and it's divided evenly across everyone before anyone's personal extras are added.
Does the tip apply fairly?
Yes. The tip percentage is applied to each person's own total — their share of the shared amount plus their own extras — so someone who ordered more also tips more on that amount, the way it works on a real check.
Can one person cover the bill for someone else?
Yes — set that person's "Paid by" to whoever is treating them. Their share moves onto the treater's total, and they still show up in the results at ₹0 so it's clear they were part of the group. One person can treat as many others as needed.
