### 5/5 — Very Reliable

*2024-02-27, version 2.9.6*

I’ve been using this tipping calculator for years and it is so reliable and easy to use. I tried other tipping calculators, just to compare and it’s not as good as this one. This is simple and straight to the point. You can also change it a little and display how you want your tipping calculator to show for your convenience! Instead of the sliding percentage feature, I chose the button feature and I was able to choose 3 different percentage options for tipping. I LOVE it and I’m happy that it’s such a useful app on my phone. Thank you developers for making it easy!

### 4/5 — Apple Watch?

*2023-06-04, version 2.9.6*

Is great but I’ve been checking on the Apple Watch version. Is there an Apple Watch complication?I prefer not to take out my phone when I have my watch.

### 1/5 — Quit after 3 or 4 uses.

*2023-04-19, version 2.9.6*

Quit after 3 or 4 uses.

### 4/5 — When are you doing a complication for the Apple Watch?

*2023-01-26, version 2.9.6*

Please let me know 
Joe

### 1/5 — No updates

*2023-01-04, version 2.9.6*

App hasn’t been updated in years, hasn’t been updated to support larger iPhone screens and multitasking. The app reverts back to 0 if you exit and come back to it from the background.

### 1/5 — It’s over…

*2022-11-07, version 2.9.6*

Why I keep downloading it 😡

### 5/5 — Lol

*2022-04-12, version 2.9.6*

I got it in 2009

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2021-03-14, version 2.9.6*

It’s not working anymore

### 1/5 — Used to be great. Now it won’t open.

*2021-03-13, version 2.9.6*

No longer opens

### 5/5 — If not working after iOS update, delete and re-download

*2021-01-20, version 2.9.6*

Like others who have recently left a review this app stopped working after the last iOS update. After deleting the app and re-downloading it I was able to launch the app again. So happy to discover this because I think it’s the best tip calculator. I’m concerned though because it hasn’t been updated in 3 years so it’s days may be numbered.
