This app is inaccurate and incomplete. It's just a calculator that outputs cost per person based on the total bill divided by the amount of people. It would be more useful to separate out the subtotal, which is generally the amount used to calculate the tip, and then add that amount to the total, include the tax and then divide per person. This way you won't be paying a tip on the sales tax.
Some states have an additional sales tax placed on prepared meals and this should be taken into consideration as well. These amounts could be programmed into the app per state and offered as a selection choice. There could also be a setup option to input these amounts manually and stored as a future choice.
A few positives: There is a good interface here, easy to use and pleasant on the eyes. I like that you can calculate up to 30 people in a party, but there should be an option to input the number of people manually because scrolling for more than a handful is awkward. I like that there is a selection for gratuity included. I also like that you can input the gratuity percentage manually if you like, but it does not accommodate fractions ( I tried calculating the tip percentage based on the subtotal amount to match the default tip percentage calculations but it would not allow for fractions or decimal amounts)
This would be a great easy to use tip calculator if was updated to calculate accurately and allow for variables. If you are thinking of getting this app as it is I would not recommend it at this time because it is inaccurate and incomplete.
