Instead of doing what the user wanted I just kept adding unnecessary features. Remember to always keep in mind what the user wants, not what the programmer thinks. I’m relearning this for mobile development as real estate is limited and functionality is the most important. So anyways here’s TipDroid 1.0 now hosted on github Check it out!
