WHAT IT DOES

Everything you need at the end of a meal.

Capture the check

Photograph the whole receipt and Tippity reads the subtotal, taxes and total for you — no typing required.

Pick your tip

Tap a percentage chip, or Custom for any amount, and see the tip and total instantly.

Tip on the subtotal

In the US, add tax separately so your tip is worked out on the food and drink, just like the restaurant does.

Round up

One tap rounds the total to the next whole dollar, euro or pound — and one more tap undoes it.

Split the check

Divide the bill between any number of diners, then text everyone what they owe.

Travel smarter

Abroad, Tippity detects the local currency and converts the total back to your home currency.

HOW TO USE TIPPITY

A quick guide to every feature.

01 · THE BASICS

Enter the check and choose a tip

Tap the green Check Amount box and type the digits in order. They flow in from the right like a cash register, so typing 1, 2, 4, 2, 5 shows 124.25 — there is no decimal point to find. Then tap a tip chip, or Custom for any other percentage.

In the United States, enter the sales tax and any service fees in the Taxes & Fees box. Tippity then works out the tip on the pre-tax subtotal. That is the usual way to tip, and it is how most restaurants work out the suggested tip amounts printed on your check.

Prefer to tip on the full amount? Put the full amount in the Check Amount box and leave taxes at zero. Outside the US you simply enter the total. Either way, the Total with Tip sits large in the bar at the bottom of the screen and never scrolls out of view.

Typing the check amount in Tippity

Tap Clear, top right, to reset everything. Your amounts survive a quick trip to another app and clear automatically after half an hour away.

02 · CAPTURING

Capture the check with your camera

Tap Capture Check at the top of the screen and point the camera at the whole receipt. The camera finds the edges, straightens the paper and takes the picture for you. Already have a photo? Tap Choose Photo to use one from your library.

Tippity reads every line and draws a green box around the subtotal, taxes and total — outside the US, the total alone. It reads the words next to each number, so it can tell the total from a table number, an item price or a suggested tip.

Check the numbers under the photo. If the green box has landed on the wrong line, tap the right one and the numbers update. When they look right, tap Use These Numbers and the calculator fills itself in. Captured taxes land in the Taxes & Fees box, where you can still correct them.

Capture tips

Flatten the check and keep it out of glare for the best results. On iPhones with Apple Intelligence, hard-to-read receipts get a second look from the on-device model. Nothing ever leaves your phone.

03 · ROUNDING UP

Round up to a clean total

When the total is not a whole amount, the Round Up button lights up. One tap raises the tip just enough to land the total on the next whole dollar, euro or pound.

The bar shows the tip percentage this works out to, and the button changes to Undo Round Up so you can change your mind. On smaller checks the percentage can rise noticeably, so keep an eye on it.

04 · SPLITTING

Split the check, then text your friends

When your total is ready, tap Split Check at the bottom of the screen and use – and + to set how many people are paying. The sheet shows the check, the tip and the total, with each person’s share beside it — rounded up to the cent so the group never comes up short.

If one person pays the whole bill, tap Text Fellow Diners. Messages opens with each share already written — add your friends in the To field, edit the message if you like, and send.
