The tipping culture is getting out of hand. The purpose of this app is to create a social movement to help businesses learn the people aren't liking it. This app uses our community effort to report on the tipping status of non-sit down restaurants. As they see this movement we think they are likely to change for the better. Here at NoTip we use the apple standard EULA agreement. Check it out here: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
