Everything you need to go from a blank account to a fully settled-up group in Squarely — Ganaka's first app.
One account for everything behind Ganaka. As more apps get added, this is the only sign-in you'll need.
You land on Ganaka's home screen — a grid of available apps. Right now that's just Squarely; tap it to go in. Everything below is inside Squarely.
Register with your name, email, and a password. Use the same email your friends know you by — it matters later (see "Joining a group" below).
On the Contacts tab, add the people you split things with — name, email, and phone. These don't need to be Squarely users yet.
On the Groups tab, tap + and name it — a trip, an apartment, a standing hangout. You're automatically added as a member and marked as an admin.
Open the group and add any of your contacts as members. As the owner, you can also promote any member to group admin — admins can create events in the group, but can't manage membership themselves.
If a friend added you as a contact using your email, and you register with that same email, their group shows up automatically under Groups → Groups I'm In. No invite code needed.
Inside a group, tap Add event — give it a title, date, and pick which group members are participating.
Each participant can be an admin (can add expenses, manage participants) or a plain member — anyone can still log an expense where they're the payer, regardless of role. You can also mark someone as "responsible" for another participant's share — handy if one person is covering for someone else.
Done with an event? An admin can archive it. It stays visible inside the group, but drops off the My Events tab so your active list stays current.
Inside an event, tap Add expense. Pick who paid, the amount, and who it was spent on — the payer can be included too, if they spent on themselves as well as others.
Each person you check off gets a weight (default 1×). Give someone a higher weight if they had more than everyone else — say, 3 drinks vs. 1 — and the cost splits proportionally instead of evenly.
Tap Calculate who owes what on the event screen. Squarely nets every expense together and shows the smallest possible set of payments to settle everyone up — not one transaction per expense, just the minimum needed overall.
