OVERVIEW

Tax Tool is designed for UK taxpayers in paid employment, using the Pay-As-You-Earn (PAYE) system of automatic tax deduction.

The app was inspired by the quality of Apple's own apps. It was designed to be comprehensive, but also to be very easy to use and input information, with immediate results.

Choose to enter as much or as little as you want: accuracy is improved if you enter more information and if you enter your Tax Code, but it still gives a useful rough guide if you enter none of these.

A key feature is that it can perform reverse salary calculations. You can enter your desired take-home pay (what you need to receive, after payroll taxes are deducted, to cover your everyday lifestyle) and Tax Tool will instantly work out the salary needed to achieve that target. You can easily flip between these to work out net pay from gross salary or vice-versa.

The app also performs UK VAT calculations, and contains a handy reference for UK tax rates, limits and allowances.

Quick and simple: this is not designed to be a replacement for a full tax return (it doesn’t ask for full details on all your financial affairs), but it does provide a quick and useful estimate of the amount you will receive in your pay packet as an employee.

Not worth 99p

Just want an app I can put my hourly rate of pay for weekdays and weekends and overtime rates for both and my tax code, to check my pay slip. The only one of those five things I can put in is my tax code. Not great, not useful, not worth using.

Brilliant App

Brilliant app, I've been using it for a few years now. Im just wondering what happened to the email the calculation button. This was very useful but seems to have disappeared in one of the updates

Pension Info

Really like this app. It would be great to enter any SIPP contributions (as an £ amount) on top of any pension salary sacrifice (as a %).

Excellent app

Have used this for years. Its sophisticated accurate and free! Well done the developer

Tax app

When will this be updated with the new NI 10% bracket

This is one of my Editor’s Choice apps

Essential if you don’t like the Tax Man getting hold of your hard earned money. By using this app, you can keep track of your adjusted gross salary and not just leave it up to the Payroll gods of your chosen employer!

Tax tool

Simon Mansell

A must have tool

Excellent App

Just helped me with a complex K code adjustment. Spot on thanks 🙏

Tax app

Can you add a feature for someone who has a second or part time job as supposed to their first one so it works out pay after both
