Tipnook

Features
Read full description

An easy end to a shared meal. Tipnook helps you calculate a tip and see what each person owes. Enter the bill, set the tip, and choose the number of people. SET THE TIP Turn the dial from 0โ€“30%, or tap 15%, 18%, 20%, or 25%. You can also set the tip to zero. SPLIT THE EXACT TOTAL Split between 1โ€“20 people. When the total does not divide evenly, Tipnook shows two payment amounts that differ by one smallest currency unit. Everyone's share adds up to the exact total. SHARE A CLEAR BREAKDOWN Copy the bill as text or an image to paste into a chat, or save the image to Photos. The breakdown includes the currency, bill amount, tip, total, and each person's share. CHOOSE YOUR CURRENCY Use 15 currencies, including USD, CAD, MXN, BRL, EUR, GBP, ZAR, CNY, HKD, TWD, JPY, KRW, SGD, AUD, and NZD. Currency selection is independent of the app language. There is no exchange-rate conversion. READY WHEN YOU RETURN Your last confirmed bill and preferences stay on your iPhone. Choose light mode, dark mode, or follow the system. VoiceOver supports adjusting the tip dial. Works offline. No account, advertising, tracking, subscription, or in-app purchases. Available in English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese. For iPhone with iOS 18 or later.
