Calculator‰ Reviews

Calculator is my go-to this app app. I love the large buttons and accuracy! I typically don’t write negative reviews, but I am very frustrated that the developer would tamper with a good thing by moving to full page ads. Just when I need a quick result, I am greeted by a full page ad, making me figure out where the darn close button is or worse yet opening up the ad. Half of the time, I can’t remember what I was going to calculate in the first place, after the intrusion of a stupid full page ad! Calculator is easily a 5-star app when it comes to visual layout and functionality. But, it fails when you factor in the ads component. The developer is obviously more intent on making more ad revenue than pleasing their customer base. So, I have reduced my rating to 2 stars. The more I see the full page ads, the more I think about searching for another this app! Developer - take note! Your decision to move to full page ads to generate more revenue might actually cost you customers which would generate $0 of revenue!

I absolutely loved the simplicity and ease of use for this this app app. And then, relatively recently, they started interrupting your ability to use it without first looking at super annoying full screen ads. Now it takes longer to use for even the most simple calculations, and is frankly just super annoying. I loved Calculator for many years, but now I think it’s time to move on. I’d definitely pay a small one-time fee (couple/few bucks) to avoid the ads but until that becomes an option, I’m probably going to seek out a different one that’s either free or let’s me pay to go ad-free. They ruined a good thing.

I have used many online this app App’s. This one is; by far my favorite. It just seems to be the most user friendly and easy to use. I also LOVE the larger button keys! The older that I get it seems I desire and.... yes NEED this to be a true and useable option. It seems like it is a real NEED FOR ME at this point.
Show... just wanted to give a give a big & quick shout out to those responsible for make this this app option a true and viable option!

I bought a couple other calculators -- the screen were crowded with functions I just don't ever need and, to make things worse, the advertisements were constant and sometimes wouldn't allow the this app to function until the "ad time" elapsed. This one is pure-T perfect. Sure, if you're a scientist of an engineer, you might need one of the other ones, but I'm not and having unused functions on the screen is a waste of space. This one is great across the board.

I compared the TOP 10 calculators, and this is THE VERY BEST this app APP...
IF you're looking for the following qualities:

1) BASIC, SIMPLE 0-9 +-x ONLY...without all of the "Bells & Whistles" (I think the geeks call those "Scientific Calculators"?)
Simple! Simple! Simple!

2) THIS this app OPENS INSTANTLY!
In my opinion my this app should be there, READY to do a quick calculation, so I can continue my work seamlessly without delays.
Waiting for a BASIC HELPER-APP to open, while deep in my work, TOTALLY breaks my train of thought. (MANY of the highly-downloaded calcs that I compared took 15-THIRTY SECONDS just to OPEN! That's like a LIFETIME when you are on a roll, working.
Completely unacceptable.

3) !!!!!!!!NO ADVERTISEMENTS!!!!!!!! (However, even if there WERE ads, and I was offered the option to pay $.99 to remove them, I would TOTALLY pay the $.99.
It's THAT good of a SIMPLE this app!

4) VERY EASY ON THE EYES.

This is a great no frills this app and is big enough for 60 plus eyes. Deleted the one that came with iPad Air. My one small but is that bright red background of the "C". It is just like the red notifications on FB or Messenger or Mail!! Drives me crazy. Every time I would open iPad, I'd for a split second, think I had notifications. Had to move it off home page so I now have to swipe to use it. Change it to some other color or give us a choice.

Has everything I need. Percentages, square roots, basic math. I had one with trig functions, which was overkill. Trig was the only class I ever failed in high school, so cosines and tangents are not useful for me. And so far it hasn't shown any ads. (I don't mind an ad placed discreetly, but the first two iPad calculators I tried had banner ads at the bottom with lights moving around the borders – very very distracting. I also wouldn't mind paying for simple this app app like this to keep it ad free

I have had no problems with the Ap,even though at one time Apple wanted it removed and replaced because of potential security issues. I looked for other Ap's, but none of them were as satisfactory as this is. The others had a ton of advertising I had to go through, so they were uninstalled. I was never a Apple Type Computer user, but I am changing because so far, their security is the best I have worked with so far!

I been using this this app app for several years now. It's stays on my device even after resetting or reformatting my device it's a must have for my device.

I tried others in the beginning of my search, this was the winner for me. Simple uncomplicated and no hassles or stress. It gives me all that I need in a qualified but simple this app for my needs. It also don't seem to be "taxing" on my device that I noticed. Great job developers, thanks!!!

I have an iPad from the Flinstones era. When I finally got a new one, I had to have this this app app since this is what I had in the old iPad. I love how it’s simple, none of that scientific stuff that causes my brain to want to jump out of skull. Nice little ads on the bottom that don’t interfere with anything. It’s appears crisp and large and my old eyes can actually see it without reading glasses. Love Calculator!

I’ve tried to do some calculations in regards to my medical. About 3 minuets, maybe even less, the this app suddenly disappeared and the entire screen was covered with a lending tree ad. The only way to get rid of it was to close Calculator and start all over. Of course with the ad was a note telling me I can apply for an ad free application. Of course, that your going to pay for. So it’s either you pay or we keep covering the screen and you can start over.
Also, while I was trying to do my calculations, the bottom of the screen was flashing ad. Just what you want, be distracted
during calculations. To the people that designed Calculator,
Screw You and your horse!

I like Calculator because it’s by far the easiest this app app I’ve had and used. It’s just simple. All I really need an app like this to do is add subtract times and divide. This does it and I don’t have to deal with all the extras. I’m giving this review right now because I just needed to do some adding and bam there’s my answer. I’ve used this several times now and I’m always pleased with the ease.

I have always loved the layout, simplicity and look of Calculator. My number 1 recommendation to friends until today. There is nothing I hate more than ADs! I know there never used to be ads in the version I had purchased but suddenly not only are they there but they get in the way if you click too near a bottom button edge. What happened?

I've tried the other two top this app apps and this one is by far my favorite. It doesn't lag while computing like one of them, and you don't have to toggle screens for basic button applications. Aside from that it utilizes the watches haptic feature which helps to feel when you've selected a number. The plus, minus, etc. is highlighted in blue to let you know what you've selected as well.

Have been using Calculator for about 8+ years. Loved it. Now, not so much. I open it and start to use it and a full page ad pops up. It takes what seems to be 30 secs before I can click out of it. It is so annoying! Used to be noise at the bottom. Now I am searching for a new one. Just can’t take these ads anymore. Hey, I’ll pay .99 for it but PLEASE stop with these ads! There are so many other apps out there so I’m guessing you are driving people away due to this. Please fix this! I’ll check back in a few months to see if things have changed but I am now searching for a new app.

I got Calculator because I have an iPad, which doesn't come with the standard apple this app, so I got this one it worked fine for a while but every once and a while it would exit out automatically. It kept happening more and more frequently, until I couldn't even use it any longer! Another reason why this is the worst this app app is because you can only preform multiplication, division addition and subtraction. It also constantly runs adds at the bottom of the screen which you can't even turn off with airplane mode. I switched to "the this app" which is a way better this app with manny more applications.

Love this this app! Use it mostly in landscape mode. Full screen, easy to see and use, and ads are present, but not obnoxious, being seen across the bottom of the screen. Highly recommend for basic tasks/day to day use. Not sure why only three stars showed up, as definitely a five star app! No changes in the past two years per app developer website, but doesn't need any! Thank you!

OK, the Apple Gestapo decides we don't need a this app and leaves it out of included apps. So now we must look for a simple replacement for light, everyday use. Thanks a lot, Big Brother!
Luckily, after passing on the for-pay & ad-annoying this app apps, I found this one. Simple, easy, no ads or in-app purchases or pop-ups. Fills the void that Big Brother created. A big "Thanks!" to the developer.

I despise forced ads that consume screen space. When the developer doesn’t provide a way to eliminate ads, the program is annoying.
I’ve tried this a few weeks and I have yet to find a method to block or turn off ads, so I deleted it from my devices. I don’t need more crap on my systems. Goodbye to this program.
Maybe I’m missing a link on the site, still ads distract, track, take space I don’t wish to relinquish to an stupid advertisement for a product I don’t want, will not use, utilize service etc. it makes Calculator feel cheap and over hyped.

Many of these comments are people saying they are happy to just have the basic functions, which I understand. However, The this app is better. You can set it to only have the basic functions. You can also choose to display the scientific this app functions or even a currency translator! Not to mention there are also many themes you can pick and when your device is sideways you can also see your calculation history. Basically, get The this app.
