A key feature of this tip calculator is that it allows you to solve for your tip %. When you adjust the total or tip, you can see how much you actually tipped right away. This comes in handy when you pay $100 instead of $95, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>While it&#8217;s customary to go from top to bottom when looking a receipt (for the items ordered, tax, tip, and total lines), I felt that it was better to invert the direction (to use a bottom to top approach). The reason being that your thumbs\u00a0are often better able to reach the bottom (not the top) of the device. I wanted the most common action (setting the bill amount) to be in\u00a0the easy to reach thumb zone.<\/p>\n<p>Please check out my app if you have a moment. It&#8217;s free (with ads) and works on iPhones &amp; iPads.
