TipCalc is a tip calculator application for iOS.
Submitted by: Joseph Sylvanovich
Time spent: 8-10 hours spent in total
The following required functionality is complete:
- [X ] User can enter a bill amount, choose a tip percentage, and see the tip and total values.
The following optional features are implemented:
- Settings page to change the default tip percentage.
- 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:
- List anything else that you can get done to improve the app functionality!
Here's a walkthrough of implemented user stories:

Describe any challenges encountered while building the app. My Xcode was experiencing a bug where the hardware keyboard was not calibrating to my application, but once ran on a different computer using Xcode the code and execution was fine. I plan to delete and reinstall Xcode to hopefully attempt to resolve the issue. This issue allowed me to step back and think about all the possible reason as to why my code may not be working as expected, but with a simple computer change the code was fine after all. Aside from this, having to get my gif to play in the README file was a lot of trial and error because I was not sure on how to incorporate a link into a file of my own for it to play until now.
