Submitted by: Ankush Raina
Time spent: 16 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:
- User can customize the pre-populated tip percentages.
- User can customize the percentage that's selected by default on a fresh launch of the app.
- Upper limit to the bill amount. Max amount $ 9,999,999,999.99
- Calculate tip as user types.
