### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2026-02-13, version 2.0*

Exceptional app very through!!

### 3/5 — Great, but missing these features

*2025-05-08, version 2.0*

Could you please add the following:
1) A set of controls to toggle International Mode and Tax Included
2) A log mode and the ability to write the title or purpose of the expenses (e.g. name of a store, restaurant, etc.)

### 2/5 — Please add a button for International mode

*2025-04-20*

Perhaps I wasnt being specific in my review: could you please update the app with a special button or toggle thst allows you to select International Mode easier, then i will give the app 5 stars. This app has great potential, but it could be even better if the user could find the International mode much easier with a visual control that will turn it on. Be sure to include all the 175 countries claimed to be included (as well as each Canadian province/territory) with tax rates displayed and “tax included” button for VAT.

**Developer response:** Hello Dragons arecute555,

The latest update introduces District of Columbia as an option in the Unites States, makes iTax available in 175 total countries with International Mode, and no longer requires you to include tax in calculations - which will be helpful if you add an item that already includes tax in the price!

Thanks for the feedback and I look forward to making iTax even better in the near future!

### 5/5 — User friendly

*2025-04-19, version 2.0*

### 5/5 — Absolutely worth it

*2025-04-09, version 2.0*

I seriously recommend this to anyone and everyone. It’s amazing how universal this app is - I’m sure everyone could find a use for it. I mean, why not? It’s free!

### 3/5 — Missing a few feartures

*2024-11-06*

It’s good but needs the following:

A log mode (with the date and title, for creating shopping lists)
A toggle mode for taxes that are already included in price (for VAT)
US Taxes are missing the District of Columbia
Add more EU Countries & their tax rates (e.g. Ireland, France, etc.)

**Developer response:** Hello Dragons arecute555,

### 5/5 — Easy, beautiful, convenient calculator!
