Are you too stupid to figure out how to use percentages on a regular calculator? Then congratulations, this is the app for you. Someone had the gall to charge a full buck &#8212; not just $.99, but a full dollar &#8212; for a gimped calculator that only does percentages.<\/p>\n<p>Funny thing is, if they just called it a tip calculator, ok, it&#8217;s still kind of useless when I can run an actual calculator app, but at least it&#8217;s hitting it&#8217;s target audience. But by including all possible percentages&#8230; if I was smart enough to figure out the word percentage, I should be smart enough to not have to use this.
