Tip ‘em! helps you quickly and accurately calculate the tip on a check and split the bill between multiple diners.

Tip ‘em! is available now from BlackBerry App World.

BlackBerry App Developers

Tip ‘em! raises the bar on both application development functionality and design, showing that BlackBerry apps can look just as good as any iPhone app. ArcTouch’s San Francisco BlackBerry app developers combined a custom background graphic (a retro “diner” check complete with a coffee stain) with a built-in handwriting font and seamlessly blended in the native user interface controls of the BlackBerry for the numeric  entry and lists for tip amount, rounding and split amount.

The Official Palm Blog writes…

Tip ’em! not only crunches through the calculations you need to figure out the appropriate tip, but adds some nice coffee-stained touches of realism to the experience.

Fun and Functional Design

Tip calculators in general are nothing new, but this one raises the bar on both functionality and design. ArcTouch developed Tip ‘em! for Azoombi and combined a custom background graphic (a retro “diner” check complete with a coffee stain) and seamlessly blended in the native touch controls of the Pre for the “picker” lists for tip amount, rounding and split amount.

BlackBerry Storm App That Looks Like An iPhone App

Tip calculators in general are nothing new, but this one raises the bar on both functionality and design, showing that BlackBerry apps can look just as good as any iPhone app. ArcTouch developed this BlackBerry app in Java. We combined a custom background graphic (a retro “diner” check complete with a coffee stain) with the built-in handwriting font (which our engineers figured out how to write at an angle for realism – no small feat!) and seamlessly blended in the native touch controls of the Storm for the numeric keypad entry and “picker” lists for tip amount, rounding and split amount.
