## What is Take Home Pay?

Easy to use UK salary calculator with instant calculations as type from gross to net and take-home to gross for all periods (yearly, monthly, weekly, daily and hourly). The ability to save results makes it an ideal companion to job hunting or pay negotiations.

SPECIAL FEATURES:
- Perform instant reverse salary calculations for working out your target salary from the take-home pay you need -- useful for job interviews and pay rise negotiations.​
- Save results for later comparisons.
- A graph visualising take-home, NI and tax deductions.
- No need for internet connection.

OVERVIEW:
We've designed Take Home for UK taxpayers under the Pay-As-You-Earn (PAYE) scheme of the tax deduction.

Our goal is to bring a user-friendly app that is easy to use. We've removed all the clutter leaving only the most essential details. This makes Take Home Calculator very easy and quick to use, while very accurate at the same time.

A key feature is that it can perform reverse salary calculations. You can enter your desired net pay (what you need to receive after payroll taxes are deducted) and Take Home will instantly work out the salary required to achieve that target. Be it an annual, monthly, weekly, daily or hourly rate; Take-Home can quickly flip between these to work out net pay from gross salary or vice-versa.

However, Take Home is not meant to be a replacement for a full tax return or payroll software replacement. But it does provide a quick and useful estimate of the amount you will receive after the taxman takes his share.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
- Gives instant calculations as you type.
- Shows a breakdown of the calculations: gross, PAYE, NI and net.
- Saves calculations for later use.
- Allows naming saved calculations.
- Flexible periods: enter and view results annually, monthly, weekly, daily or hourly.
- Calculates your National Insurance contributions.
- Calculates PAYE tax for the current tax year 2020/2021. Additionally the app provides calculations for previous tax years up to 2018/19, for easy and convenient comparison.
- Provides an instant rough guide. 
- Works with iOS 13.
- Automatic Dark Mode!
- Enable P45 settings and add your data for more accurate calculations when you're changing jobs in the middle of the fiscal year. 

Optional Settings available:
- Scottish tax (SRIT). 
- Contributions to company pensions.
- Childcare Vouchers.
- Student Loan repayments (pre-Sept 2012 and post-Sept 2012 schemes supported).
- Tax deductions.
- Salary sacrifice.

### 3/5 — Needs some improvements

*2021-10-28*

This is a really good app but doesn’t let me factor in my pension contributions to reflect my true income per month / year. You can add this to the settings tab but it does not add to the main page

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2020-08-29*

Cannot use decimal point and can’t actually select your hour breakdown so they guess your salary completely wrong

**Developer response:** Thank you for reporting this issue and raising concern. We have fixed this issue in version 1.5. If you have any further questions please contact us via support@londonappworks.co.uk or via our website chat on www.londonappworks.co.uk. Thank you!

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2020-08-26*

The decimal point doesn’t work and is blacked out so I am unable to type in my salary correctly.

**Developer response:** Thank you for reporting this issue and raising concern. We have fixed this issue in version 1.5. If you have any further questions please contact us via support@londonappworks.co.uk or via our website chat on www.londonappworks.co.uk. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Absolutely love it!

*2018-03-24*

I’ve been looking for a tool like this one for ages. Great design that sets it apart from other apps. 

I’ve started looking for a new job and Take Home gives me the ability to save and compare roles. 

But I also use it as a planning tool for my current work. Hourly and daily rates are awesome!!!
