About

Tip Tracker

Features
Read full description

Know what every shift is really worth. Tiploom is a private tip tracker for servers, bartenders and anyone whose income includes tips. Log cash and card tips in three taps, add hours and wages when the shift ends, and see your real hourly rate. LOG TIPS FAST • One "Log tips" button: amount, cash or card, save. Tips go straight into tonight's shift. • Shift clock: tap Start shift when you arrive and End shift when you leave. Your start time, end time and hours are filled in, and your wages too if your saved job has an hourly rate. • Start and end times, or hours and minutes, with unpaid breaks. Overnight shifts and clock changes are handled correctly. • Card tips received now or paid later through payroll, including partly paid tips. APPLE WATCH, WIDGETS AND SIRI • Apple Watch app: log a cash or card tip from your wrist with a number pad, see today's and this week's tips, and start or end your shift clock. • Works when your iPhone is out of reach: entries are stored on your Watch and added to your iPhone ledger when it is nearby again. The Watch app is a companion and needs Tiploom on your iPhone. • A watch-face complication, a free "Log tips" widget for the Home Screen and Lock Screen, and a Control Center control (iOS 18 or later) all open tip entry. • Siri and Shortcuts: say "Log a cash tip in Tiploom" or "Log a card tip in Tiploom" and Siri asks for the amount, without opening the app. From a locked iPhone, the tip is added once you unlock it. Also: "Today's tips in Tiploom", "Start my shift in Tiploom" and "End my shift in Tiploom". KNOW YOUR NUMBERS • This week's net tips, effective hourly rate and tips per shift on the home screen. • A week chart: tap a day to see its shifts. • Optional sales per shift, giving tip % of sales. • Tip-out as an amount, % of tips or % of sales, with presets per job. • Payroll payments and withholding, so you can see what is still expected. YOUR MONTH, ON RECORD • Monthly tip record: cash tips, card tips, tips received from coworkers, tips paid out and net tips. • Share the month as CSV. PDF comes with Pro. FREE, WITH NO ADS Unlimited tips and shifts, full history and corrections, week and month views, one saved job preset, payroll records, CSV export, manual backups and restore, Apple Watch logging, the shift clock, Siri, and the Log tips widget and control. No account and no ads.
