Tipsy - Tip Calculator Reviews

I downloaded this app to my Apple Watch Ultra because the tip feature on the native calculator is difficult to use. this app concentrates on just calculating tips and makes great use of available screen real estate. Only problem is the dollar signs font look like life rings. Fix this and Tipsy would be perfect. Otherwise it works great.

This is a great app for calculating tips and splitting bills. I love that it runs on the watch too (auto installs when you get it for the phone). It is quite intuitive to use but the description in Tipsy Store listing also lays out all the details. Great job!

Great app! Love that it’s a Watch Series 4 complication too. However, the one thing that is missing is the ability to NOT tip on the tax. Another app even figures out the tax based on your location. If this had a similar feature it would absolutely be the best one!

All of these tip apps always seem to miss one feature. None of them have all the features I need but this is the closest by far:

Also a Watch App
A Watch series 4 complication
Doesn’t tip on the tax <-missing
Round the total
Easy to enter the amount
Easy to enter the tip %
(Optional - Split the bill and tip)

Add the ability to either enter a tax % or even better do it by location and I’ll gladly give the 5th star.

Tipsy is so easy to use, huge font and the layout is friendly to the eyes. My only feedback is that there’s no 22% tip and not customizable and also can only split bill up to 8 people. These limitations has forced me to download and use another app. Please update.

The day I installed this — and the installation automatically added it to my Apple Watch — I used it at dinner. Simple, easy to see, easy to use, and right there on my watch rather than grabbing the phone.

I found it easy to read, easy to enter numbers and adjust the percentage of the tip (there are five preset percentages), and easy to “split” the bill between 1 - 4 payers. (Unfortunately my wife declined to split the payment.)

The total was also shown, handy for double checking my math, as well as the cost per person if you split the check.

A well done Apple Watch app that I’ll be using often.

I’ve used a lot of tip calculators on the watch. Even paid for some of the to the Pro version. They are all hard to used and you end up taking out the iPhone.

But Tipsy, only runs on the Watch, is the simplest, easiest and quickest. I love it already. And it’s free.

Go download it right away.

Love Tipsy , great UI/UX. If only it wasn’t restricted to the US.

Here’s what I mean:
- Some currencies don’t have cents, we round to the nearest hundred typically. We don’t need the .00 at the end.
- Some currencies are less valuable and typical restaurant bills are easily in the thousands/ten thousands.
- The $ signs throws people off when showing them the result (outside US). :)

Updated feedback:

Czech koruna and Hungarian forint are good examples I think. Usual tip is 10%. Even simple restaurant bills can be in the thousands/ten thousands easily.

This Apple Watch app is the bomb. Easy. Quick. Sensible. I love the layout, and how the crown allows for quick entry.
Having it’s complication on my watch face makes it quite handy.
During business trips Tipsy gets a workout. A pleasure to use!

Great app easy to use! I’d actually pay money for this if it included a complication for my Apple Watch.

This works FABULOUS on my phone. Best tip calculator EVER. I can’t get the tip amount to change from 15%. on my watch though and it is much handier and less obvious if the tip percentage worked on the watch.

Does what I wanted in a clear and easy way. Supports new Apple Watch!!!

Please add lockscreen widgets

Just like the tag line says, Tipsy does open really quickly. And its calculations are all accurate as far as I can tell.

And as of the latest version (and big thanks to the developer for this!), it also supports “calculator layout” for the numbers.

For those who might not be familiar with what the “calculator layout” refers to, every standard standard calculator—including the Calculator app that’s built in to iOS—uses this order:
7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3
0
(This is also the order that you see on all keyboards with a numpad.)

And for people who work with numbers all day, they’ll tend to be more accustomed to keying them in using an interface with calculator order. And as one of those people, this layout really helps a lot.

Tipsy is already one of the better tip-calculator apps out there, and there are two other features possibilities that I might like to toss out there:

• It could be handy if Tipsy were to let you long-press on the “amount” field to let you either Copy the current value or Paste a number from your clipboard. I’m imagining a scenario where perhaps your hair stylist were to send you a Venmo request and you had wanted to copy that amount from the Venmo app and paste it into Tipsy to figure out the tip.

• It’s not uncommon for some physical calculators—and some keyboards’ numpads—to include a dedicated double-zero key (“00”). And for an app like this one that deals with monetary mounts, I think a “00” key could be an ideal addition. That way, if—say—a restaurant meal were to cost $89, you’d only need to tap “8”, “9”, and “00” to calculate the tip, which would be nice.

The option to share via text message the bill splitting/tip sharing information would be amazing.
The usability and engagement with the screen is great. But if I am splitting a bill with someone, I’d love to be able to text the information to them.

Great app. Didn’t see an option to supply feedback, so doing it here. Would be really great to see a small display of what your rounded tip percentage is. Example: app is set to rounding tip up to full dollar amount. If set to 20%, next to that clearly show in smaller font what the percentage is of the rounded up tip. Thanks

Adding custom percents may be a good idea, having also the ability to have two amounts that are custom calculated would be good too. Went somewhere where you could do custom amounts as a tip.

The X and the delete buttons don’t work anymore on the iwatch. Please go back to the previous layout.

Everything is misaligned? What happened or better yet, fix it please

Why is this free? It's too perfect!!... what is the catch?🤔

1. Option to change the icon and app ui colors
2. Please add an ability to use the new widget function! I would love to have this somewhere on my screen

I would most definitely pay for this. It would be a bit of work for you but you could charge a little bit for your time and it would help people out in the process.

Been using Tipsy for two years. Clean, easy to use. It would be great if the tip calculations would exclude sales tax. Should be an easy mod.

Love everything about this, except the fact that you can’t change the percentage amount by ones and that you have to scroll through multiples of five.
