Reviews: What People Think About TaxCaster: Tax Calculator

This app has definitely helped me with estimating my federal tax refund. My only wish with this tax estimator is to give the user the ability to see their state tax estimate in addition to seeing their federal tax estimate.
*Also I’d like to say thank you to the developer for listening to my prior complaint not only fixing the issue, but also responding to me with a message letting me know you guys updated the app with a fix for the issue I was having.

Such a shame. I’ve been using this app for over a decade and it was great. Now, calculations are wrong, with the tax grossly overestimated. As of 15 April 2025 (tax day!!!) it was not corrected in spite of several recent one star reviews and being the end of the tax filing season. For example, 2024 tax on qualified dividends is being taxed as ordinary income!. The online version of TaxCaster shows completely different results compared to this iPhone App, after entering identical numbers. If this is happening with their estimating tool, how can we trust TurboTax to be accurate when we actually file our taxes?.
The App now (5 Sep 2025) states that it will go away in mid September 2025 directing users to the online version, where you need to re-enter all your numbers each time you use it, and changes don’t update the results in real time. Really disappointing after decades of use that, instead of fixing the App to the way it used to work well, TurboTax now decided to discontinue it! Such a shame. I anticipate they will be losing many loyal long-standing costumers.

This has been an amazing 5 star app for over a decade. I have referred it to many of my friends. HOWEVER- the 1 star review is just my attempt to alert the developers that the most recent version has a SERIOUS ISSUE with respect to handling of dividend income. The more dividend income I put in the lower my taxes become. I’m not sure which “update” caused this blow but it seems to be a very recent issue. I have relied on this app to estimate my taxes for the past 10+ years and it has been absolutely amazing. I would happily pay for this app if it is working properly. It’s that good. But right now it has a SERIOUS ISSUE and this appears to be with how it is handling dividend income. The more dividend income I report the lower my taxes become. Developers PLEASE FIX THIS bizarre bug and thank you for what has been an incredible app.
