5/5Excellent! 👍👍
I love this app, and use it all the time. It’s easy to use and by far the best I’ve seen. Nice update. Thanks 😊 When going through the history, (which is one of the features I love about this app.) sometimes it would be nice if I could zoom in on the receipts.

5/5Thank you for updating!
Sooo happy this developer decided to update this app. It's one of the few that has remained on my home screen since 2008! And it was getting dangerously close to obsolete. I've tried a lot of tipping apps; this is the best.

5/5Big Tipper

5/5Best Tip Calculator!
Thanks so much for updating the app so it keeps working under future versions of iOS. I'm so happy to be able to keep using Big Tipper.

5/5Now definitely the BEST Tip program
These developers have handled all problems and have now created the best, easiest to use tip program. There is sales tax support (subtracts sales tax from gross before calculating tip), rounding, and the calculator buttons are right on the home screen. Also you can use the slide bars, OR tap the bars (either the amount, split between persons, or the tip amount) and enter the number manually without using the slide controls. Easy to read and use, and just cannot be better. It is now the best tip program in the app store, and I carefully looked at all of them before buying this one. UPDATE: Now has historical restaurant input. I know you can use the calculator to calculate a tip, but for those who like the convenience and ease of use of a tipping program, this one is THE BEST!
