BistroMath is a great tool that can transform bills so as to provide the user a good overview of what they are paying for. Calculate how much tip you should leave behind, how much each person owes separately, what percent of the bill is taxes... In short, the app does for you what you would otherwise be scribbling on the back of a cardboard coaster.
The app comes with a handy calculator as well as the ‘Advanced Panel’ option that harbours more advanced mathematic functions (Sin, Cos, Tan, ln, log, ...). Results cannot, however, be displayed on the homescreen.
As mentioned, the following functions:
can be added to the equation/bill.
I was a bit surprised that there isn’t an option for accessing the internet when checking the FX rate / foreign currency function, meaning you have to enter the approximate currency rate yourself. Also, it isn’t possible to save anything to the SD card (for example)—a pity as this would be a brilliant tool to help calculate total costs and expenses for an entire holiday.
Bottom line:
BistroMath is a great little app, and it has more potential than the scope of its current functionality.

Best Tip App. I use this app all the time. It's easy to use and you can change the tax rate or remove it all together, split the total between any number of people. Tip is calculated before tax. Awesome. AND there's a calculator just in case.

Nowhere near the functionality of the app of the same name for iPhone. Doesn't do uneven bill splitting.
