### 2/5 — It’s ok

*2022-06-23, version 2.1.0*

Reports by week and pay period don’t work.

Doesn’t show a graphic of your avg hourly wage over time.

Just ok. Try another app.

### 2/5 — Crashed

*2020-02-03, version 2.1.0*

I’ve had tip bucket/mule for about 7 years. 
I’ve kept track of all my tips since downloading.  This app has been great. 
Well tonight, it crashed on me, and all my data is gone.  Please fix this ASAP!!

### 2/5 — Don’t fix it if it ain’t broken

*2019-05-02, version 2.1.0*

I’ve used this app for several years. I was referred to Tip Bucket through a friend of mine and I loved it from the get go! Never an issue (aside from my own flubs). I especially loved the average tip percentage feature. One day I go to open Tip Bucket and I am notified that the app has changed and I am directed to the App Store to download Tip Mule. Alright, fine, I’ll play along. I download the app and immediately notice issues. The layouts all funky and I can’t find features that I was used to having with Tip Bucket. Soon after the app starts crashing. First, just occasionally and then the problems began to come more frequently. Now I can’t even open the app. I’ve lost the last 2 years of stored info and I can’t get a reply back to the email inquiry I sent asking how I can fix this issue. I’ve had to download another app and start from scratch. Thanks a lot. You should have remained as Tip Bucket. Tip Mule has been a colossal failure.

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2019-01-24, version 2.1.0*

It was better as “tip bucket”. Every time I go to add a new tip for the day, the app closes atleast the first two tries. I have info on their from awhile ago so I hate to have to switch apps, but I might just stop using it all together. Disappointing.

### 2/5 — Good

*2019-01-22, version 2.1.0*

I want to be able to see both ‘jobs’ in dash board

### 1/5 — Please fix crashes constantly

*2019-01-06, version 2.1.0*

Please update to fix with new iPhones & new iOS . I have been using this for years since it was tip bucket & love the app. I can’t even open at now without it constantly crashing. Please fix as soon as possible.

### 3/5 — Good, but crashes.

*2018-12-17, version 2.1.0*

I’ve had this app for a long time. Since it was called “Tip Bucket.” Tip Mule is much more useful and dependable than Tip Bucket ever was, but lately it keeps crashing. It usually crashes about 2 or 3 times upon first opening it, and after that I can use it. Please, please, please fix this bug! It is a great app otherwise, and I highly recommend it.

### 3/5 — Worked great, until it stopped working

*2018-10-30, version 2.1.0*

I loved the app, but the other day when I went to add a shift, I was kicked out and lost all of my information. There’s no way to get any of it back since I thought it was safe keeping it in this app. I’m not sure what happened but now it’s no longer recognizing my e mail and I feel like I have to start again, all while losing about a years worth of information. When the app works it’s great, but this is very frustrating.

### 3/5 — App

*2018-08-20, version 2.1.0*

App used the work great. Now it crashes and won’t open!

### 3/5 — Frustrated

*2018-05-05, version 2.0.10*

Analytics are no longer working. No update available, and no accessibility to help option.

### 2/5 — Loved this before

*2018-04-09, version 2.0.10*

I loved this program have had for a lot of years and really liked it , however since the change it seems like it locks up or won’t load up . I’ve started using it again and in four days would not load info , deleted and reloaded still not easy to login locked on the mule pic?one day wouldn’t even let me sign in??? I also understand why they want everyone to have an account and sign in for in app purchases but I liked it better when it was just on my phone !!!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2017-11-02, version 2.0.7*

Bring back Tipbucket this is awful.Entering should be this arduous

### 4/5 — New update

*2017-10-02, version 2.0.6*

Since this new update it is making me register. I have tried to register and it won't do anything. I have then tried to have my password sent to me and again nothing happens. So as of now all of my records for the year are gone. 
*** Tip Mule responded to my emails very quickly. I finally found why I couldn't register. My cellular data access button must be on. Up and running now. It is a different app now but I will give it a try.

### 4/5 — Sun-sat

*2017-09-28, version 2.0.6*

Please bring back the Sunday through Saturday feature. And also could you add a feature to view tips by days of the week? And it would be nice to be able to click on the calendar and see your tips listed there instead of having to scroll down. I use both your app and TipSee because they have these features that I need and I wish you would incorporate.
Edit: thank you for your response but I meant I wanted to compare each day’s average tips. Like compare the average tips I make on Mondays to the rest of the week. There’s no feature for this.

### 2/5 — So frustrating

*2017-09-20, version 2.0.5*

I bought this app nearly four years ago and recommended it to so many people...cuz I loved it! Then they updated it without notice and it totally changed all my information entered!! I'm a server and as such need to track my take home tips and also how much I tip out to support staff. In the original app I would enter my take home amount and the amount of money tipped out. When the app was updated it  automatically deducted the tip out amount from the amount I entered as my take home and went back to the beginning of my entering. Changed all my earning numbers!! So frustrating!! So I adapted how I put the info in. I enter my amount before tipping out then my tip out amount and it would give me my take home amount!  I even went back several months and adjusted all my numbers. Then I go to enter my tips from last night and It appears as though they've changed it back to the old way and now I'm so messed up in my tracking!! So so frustrated with this! I've depended on this to keep track of my income information for years and now even my previous 3 years are all inaccurate!

### 1/5 — Cant login

*2026-07-11, version 3.1.7*

Got logged out and it wont let me log back in or reset my password..

### 1/5 — New interface but where is the rest of my history

*2026-03-11, version 3.1.0*

Updated according to instructions. All of my history for the past 5 years, gone! There’s nothing left aside from the job titles and work place. Starting from scratch in March. 

I don’t have the data to compare month to month or year to year. What a disappointment. 

I'm sorry I updated.

### 1/5 — DON’T WASTE YOUR $$$

*2025-01-24, version 2.1.0*

Terrible app, waste of money. Glad it was only .99 because it doesn’t track anything. After it stopped closing out while trying to add my job, nothing was saving. Do better.

### 1/5 — Ripoff!!

*2024-04-26, version 2.1.0*

I should have listened to the other reviews..this app is a ripoff! Charged me .99 for an app that doesn't work. Went to log in my tips from last night and the app kept closing out while just trying to add my job title..if it worked right it would be great because I've been trying to find an app that tracks both my tips and clock in/out hours without having to get 2 separate apps. Unfortunately this app is useless since it glitches and doesn't work right, it just steals your money.

### 1/5 — Would give zero stars if I could

*2020-02-11, version 2.1.0*

App is non functional. Cannot enter tips which is the only thing this app is made to do.

### 1/5 — Use to be the best

*2019-11-12, version 2.1.0*

It’s unfortunate they haven’t fixed the crashing yet.  This was the best app to keep track of my tips.   I’ve reached out to them many times but theu haven’t gotten back to me.  I’m afraid it’s time to move on.

### 1/5 — Is this even current anymore

*2019-08-28, version 2.1.0*

The app crashes, A LOT. They claim in the last few updates they re fixing bugs and crashes but the problems have been the same for almost six like the. Is anyone even working on this app anymore?

### 1/5 — Used to be good.

*2019-08-14, version 2.1.0*

When it was called Tip Bucket the app was great. Ever since it switched over to Tip Mule it’s been awful. The other night the app crashed and now I can’t open it. Just lost seven years of financial records.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2019-06-16, version 2.1.0*

I paid .99cents for something i can’t use it crashes as soon as i open it i can’t do nothing i want my money back

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2019-05-18, version 2.1.0*

I NEED ALLLLLLL MY INFORMATION for the over SIX YEARS I’ve used this app emailed to me ASAP, it crashes constantly now, I can’t log back into the app after it logged me out randomly... there’s no backup I can get to anywhere!!!? I use this FAITHFULLY and need it to file my taxes!!!!
UPDATE: CRASHES EVERY SINGLE NIGHT

### 5/5 — trash

*2025-10-26, version 2.1.0*

doesn’t record info entered… useless

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2020-09-18, version 2.1.0*

I’ve been using this for years and yes there have been a few glitches and bugs in that time, but they always seem to get them fixed.  This app has allowed me to keep track of my earning from multiple jobs and it’s amazing being to go back and see previous earnings and hours from different years, months and days. Very handy, especially for people in the service industry.

### 5/5 — Excellence!

*2019-04-10, version 2.1.0*

I’ve been using this app for years, back when it was called Tip Bucket! Never had any issues until a few weeks ago i noticed the numbers in my dashboard weren’t adding up.. After writing to their tech support about my issues, they got back to me within a day. After a few screen shots and specific details about what was happening they took to work on fixing it. A few days later it was back to normal and I am still a happy and loyal user! Their customer service was excellent and well beyond my expectations! I would recommend this app to anyone! 
Thanks again Tip Mule! 
Keep up the Greatness!

### 5/5 — Good customer service

*2018-02-05, version 2.0.10*

I’ve had this app for some years now. There was trouble when it underwent an overhaul last year. However, Tracy has worked to fix all issues and even went so far as to create a new pay period option to meet my needs. Thank you for your flexibility!

### 5/5 — Thanks for the update!

*2017-09-17, version 2.0.5*

You've got it right again! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Respect to the developer

*2017-09-16, version 2.0.5*

9/16/17
With each update I love this app even more, I highly recommend this to any servers who are looking to keep track of their earnings in both tips and hourly. Keep theses improvements coming. 

8/10/2017
This latest update is beyond expectations, I knew the developer was working on the 'totals' charts but wow! These are even more detailed than the previous app Tip Bucket, awesome work 👏👏
If you are a server this is a must have app. 
7/6/2017
I decided to leave all my comments on here so you can see the progress that the developer has made in a very quick and timely fashion. Many of us had reached out after tip bucket changed to tip mule and were shocked by the complete makeover. 
The developer listen to us and added features, brought back features that we all felt were relevant. I'm very happy with this latest update. I look forward to future updates, thank you for listening. 
7-4-17 I changed my review to a two stars from one because things are getting better. I received several replies from the developer showing me that they really care and want to know what we want, I am giving them a chance. I'm starting to learn how to use the app, and I like some of its new features on the dashboard. I just wish you could click on the dashboard and see the break down, but that may come in the future. 
I look forward to your next updates.

7/2/2017 Tip bucket was awesome, this is total crap!
You can no longer track things as accurately and a simple as before. 
You can put in your exact hours that you're working via the clock in, it has defaults which is silly. I used to use TipBucket to track against my paychecks to make sure things were accurate, now I can no longer do that, I can't compare year to year month-to-month, I can't compare sales versus percentage of tips. 
All in all this upgrade is awful.

### 5/5 — Great for drivers too.

*2017-08-13, version 2.0.4*

I just put in hours per day and tips per day, and Tip Mule gives me the info I want.  I can track tips and wages by day, week, or pay period.  This is great to compare with my pay stubs.  I tried others and this is the best.

### 5/5 — 6 year user

*2017-07-24, version 2.0.3*

I hated the update!! But now that all the bugs have been worked out, its the best tip app out there!

### 5/5 — The best tip tracking app

*2017-07-12, version 2.0.3*

I have always loved tip bucket because of all the data it tracks for you and I'm really glad they've gone back and revamped it with some updated features (tip mule)and still kept the things that I loved originally. I was wondering if it was going to get an upgrade and I'm really happy with what they've done. Also, from the sounds of it, it looks like they're not stopping anytime soon and that makes me happy. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Nice visualizations and prompt support service

*2017-07-06, version 2.0.2*

A few weeks ago, I got a new iPhone and was unable to save my tip data to the cloud, but I was able to email to myself a backup. I downloaded the new app today and emailed the developer asking if it was possible to upload my data to the app. They wrote me back immediately with a solution. Aside from the quick response, I'm really pleased with the changes to the app. I like the analytics they've added and the overall upgraded appearance & functionality. I would highly recommend!
