This app was so helpful! Loved the ease of use! ### 5/5 — Game Changer *2022-11-27, version 1.1.2* Really a great app and the cost is ridiculously low for the value. One if the best values I have encountered on the App Store. Really simplifies estimating your withholding and doing tax planning. I could not be more pleased with this app. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2022-11-20, version 1.1.2* Great app! Easy to use! ### 5/5 — Finally a good income tax calculator! *2022-11-20, version 1.1.2* This app is simple to use and very user friendly! First app I have found that does both Federal & State Income tax projections! I love it! ### 5/5 — Absolutely Fantastic! *2022-11-20, version 1.1.2* Super clean UI & easy to use! ### 5/5 — Great!!! *2022-10-15, version 1.0* This is a great app! Very simple and easy to use. No CPA necessary! I hate the uncertainty of how much to withhold and wondering if I’m going to owe at the end of the year. Once you enter some basic info this app shows how much federal and state tax you should be prepared to pay. No more guessing. So helpful! I also love that there are no ads/in app purchases. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ss tax and Medicare. *2024-07-24, version 2.3.1* What I don’t have to pay this now. I’m a Independent Contractor, I’m trying to figure out what I need to pay the IRS quarterly. I need to put money aside. ### 1/5 — App might be good BUT… *2023-05-29* App is available to Canada but it’s meant for the US only. No way to select a province or something other than US states. Maybe it’s good for US but that I don’t know. **Developer response:** I am so sorry you felt misled. I put “USA” in the title so it’s clear it’s a United States tax calculator. I will be sure to update the description & screenshots to make it more straightforward it’s USA only. I want the app available worldwide in the event a USA citizen is out of the country earning an income and they want to estimate their tax bill for the USA because, in general, if you’re considered a USA citizen or USA permanent resident, you pay USA income tax regardless of where income is earned. So, if a USA citizen is living in a different country earning an income, it is usually subject to USA income tax. Since you are from Canada, it might be worth checking out “Simple Tax Calculator.” It’s a Canadian income tax calculator. I have never tested it to the Canadian tax code, I just know the app exists, and it’s simple to use. I would recommend backtesting it to a previous tax year before trusting it. Thanks for your feedback & I hope this helps 🙏 ### 3/5 — Non-refundable credits not being applied to Other Taxes!! *2026-05-28, version 4.0.1* Non-refundable credits such as the child tax credit are only being applied to the regular income tax BEFORE Other Taxes, such as excess APTC repayment, are added. This is incorrect for Form 1040. This results in a portion of the non-refundable credit being wasted/lost if the credit doesn’t fully offset the regular tax, resulting in taxes owed due to the Other Taxes which should have been offset by the remainder of the non-refundable credits after all taxes are added. ### 3/5 — Product not found message *2024-02-15, version 2.2.0* Attempting 3.99 purchase generated product not found message. ### 4/5 — Ejinkonye *2026-01-28, version 4.0.0* There is a message that keeps popping up for donations. I gave a 3.99 donation. It’s still present. ### 4/5 — Okay, if you don’t itemize. Tax caster better. *2025-03-24, version 3.0.3* Okay, if you don’t itemize. Tax caster better ### 4/5 — Great app for a QUICK Fed & State Tax estimate! *2023-08-28, version 1.9.3* At last, a simple FREE application for estimating both your Federal and State taxes without having to through hoops to input the most basic information. Very handy and will use every year! You can get an estimate in less than 30 seconds and no need to create online accounts like so many others ask you to! A must try! The author actively updates it too! ### 5/5 — Wonderful Tool *2026-03-14, version 4.0.1* No ads, clean and simple layout, helpful content in-app. While paying taxes sucks, this app does not! Suggestion for a future release would be the ability to populate and save multiple estimates (or export the current estimate) for easier comparison of different tax scenarios. That said, I paid for the app and will continue to support it going forward! ### 5/5 — Useful, confusing estimates part *2025-03-24, version 3.0.3* I found this app very useful to get a quick overview of my tax situation, it’s easy to use and includes helpful tips. The one aspect I found confusing is the field “Projected Federal Tax Withholding” - I had expected that exactly this field is the output of the analysis: where am I projected to land and is this sufficient, based on my income details, tax status, and perhaps ability to enter additional withholding per paycheck. I’ve done the math myself, but would find it more intuitive if it calculated it for me. ### 5/5 — Test *2024-10-08, version 2.3.1* I like it. I will upgrade to purchased app. Thanks ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — OUTSTANDING TAX AP! *2024-02-29* What a fantastic easy to use app to calculate taxes. Spot on. **Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words 😊 ### 5/5 — Simple and Concise Tax app *2023-12-09, version 1.11.0* This is a great tax planning tool. Easy to use and up to date. One suggestion would be a Landscape view for IPad. A+ Update: Landscape added!! Many thanks for the quick response. ### 5/5 — Simple and Concise Tax app *2023-11-21* This is a great tax planning tool. Easy to use and up to date. One suggestion would be a Landscape view for IPad. A+ **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m so happy you are finding value with Taxes Suck! I will look into adding landscape view for iPads 👍🏼 ### 5/5 — Finally! *2023-04-30, version 1.6.1* It’s about time someone made an basic tax estimator. Quite advanced. Developer’s website is actually a help (rather than a sales demo). ### 5/5 — OUTSTANDING TAX AP! *2023-03-17* What a fantastic easy to use app to calculate taxes. Spot on. **Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words 😊 ### 5/5 — An easy to use, quick & smart app *2022-12-08, version 1.1.4* Thank you for this tool, it’s easy to utilize and apply to many diverse potential projects. I’ve used this app for projections and end of year budgets. TKU. ### 5/5 — Clean and simple to use! *2022-12-08, version 1.1.4* This app gives peace of mind and allows for realistic financial planning.
