TIPR is a tip calculator application for iOS.
Submitted by: Dwayne Johnson
Time spent: 10 hours spent in total
The following required functionality is complete:
- User can enter a bill amount, choose a tip percentage, and see the tip and total values.
- Settings page to change the default tip percentage.
The following optional features are implemented:
- UI animations
- Remembering the bill amount across app restarts (if <10mins)
- Using locale-specific currency and currency thousands separators.
- Making sure the keyboard is always visible and the bill amount is always the first responder. This way the user doesn't have to tap anywhere to use this app. Just launch the app and start typing.
The following additional features are implemented:
- Displayed an alert message to confirm that the default tip has been saved.
Here's a walkthrough of implemented user stories:

Describe any challenges encountered while building the app. This was my first time developing an app, so learning the various features took sometime. One of the challenging aspects was learning how to save user data. Once I figured this out, the next challenging task was accessing the system time to remember data from a previous launch over a limited time period (less than 10 mins in this case).
