Calculator‘ Reviews

by EdWaRdW818

I liked this enough for it to be my go-to this app for the past 3 years and didn't mind the tiny banner at the bottom, but some time within the last few weeks this switched to using pop-ups. Also, I can justify a one-time purchase, but why a subscription?!?

I know you have to pay YOUR bills, but having ANYTHING disruptive for finance and productivity is a HUGE no-no... Especially when I'm trying to switch between this and 2 apps to pay MY bills, having to wait for the ad to load and to be able to tap the X to close it, then forgetting what numbers I was supposed to enter is EXTREMELY frustrating, and is exactly where I draw the line. Well, you just lost one source of ad revenue. Bye!

When I got Calculator ages ago, it was good. It faithfully calculated what you needed, and then some. You could even perform some engineering calculations since it had trig functions, 1/x, and the usual stuff for a scientific this app. It still does that, but as time has worn on, the ads have grown more and more intrusive, with pop ups that take up the entire screen and completely derail what you’re doing. I understand the need to generate revenue, but this is more ad than this app and it severely interferes with your ability to do anything. I’ve just deleted Calculator and will not go back.

I deleted because of an odd setting in app, that would not let me access said setting. Kept popping up as a “failed” attempt to access, when I would try to enter to delete my “remote profile” what ever the f that is even!?!? Most likely just another data stealing/selling tactic like MOST of these apps and OUR cell devices are!!! Simple exploits in the war of tyrants, wringing us dry of every last drop and reduced to data to be sold for profits!
But hey I could be wrong, perhaps the developer would like to chime in and explain what the “remote profile” is and why it is even necessary for a GD this app app on MY PHONE!?!? Lol (WHAT IS FREEDOM OF CHOICE FOR $5000!?!bahahaaa) And they could further explain why there seems to be a perpetuated bug that makes user incapable of changing this odd setting off!?!?

I’ve been using this this app for years. All I really wanted was a this app that showed calculation history and the option to backspace (instead of starting a calculation all over). This did both and did it well. Sure there were ads, but they were at the bottom and weren’t obtrusive. Not anymore. Now, it’s a constant barrage of pop-ups. Not just “one a day” or something like some apps are using (though even that is extremely annoying). No, this is EVERY time you start a new calculation. Why couldn’t you just leave it as is? Now I have to take the time to find an alternative to something similar to what you USED to have.

I like this more than Apple’s default this app. Since a recent iOS upgrade, Apple’s this app became less responsive. Installed this app HD, and enjoyed the simple design and the “History” feature. I can’t tell you how many times I forgot what I just calculated only to wish I had some sort of “back” button.
A major draw back to Calculator is that it is loaded with ads. There’s a banner on the bottom, and a full screen ad pops up almost every time you load it up. I don’t want ads, and I’m willing to pay a one-time fee to get rid of them, but there isn’t any option like that. The developers also make another this app app, but that requires a monthly fee. I think that’s outlandish. I don’t want to pay a continuous fee for a this app. That’s ridiculous.

A decimal place I can see, that’s all I’m asking for in any of these apps, on any of the keyboards on laptops can we make the (,) and the (.) a little bit bigger not like the due date on my Visa bill in a 6 font give me a 14 -16 font (just for those two buttons, the rest of the buttons are fine, who cares if it’s a little bigger than the rest, that’s all I’m looking for, a basic this app for my staff without the goodies because they’ll get confused. I’ll pay $4.95 for it, just give me a decimal place I can (*#:$) see and a (%) key, I don’t need (+/-). I’m not sorry, pizza shop kids fresh out of high school with terrible math skills don’t need a plus/minus button.

by Annecrazycatlady

This this app is a fine app, and I use it all the time. The number buttons are large and the printing on them is clear. It works quickly for the very simple uses I have for it. Actually, the only things I don’t like about it are the ads on the bar below the this app. I know that I have to put up with ads in order to get a free app, but they are as intrusive as they can possibly be, short of causing me to throw my iPad against a wall. The price I pay for frugality!

This game will help you cheat well it’s not a game but it will help you so that’s why I’m getting a three star but it will also help you learn so that’s why I gave it to start well not exactly this game I don’t know why I keep saying game but Calculator is kind of boring so you might not want to download it because it’ll help you cheat if you’re just trying to do a math problem and you have your iPad right next to you then you will just go on this and cheat so that’s why I think this is kind of a bad app

by SamCfan

I like Calculator and now use it instead of my old stand-alone this app, and would prefer to deduct only a fraction of a star. The only flaw is that the audio feedback lags behind the actual keytouch just enough to be noticed. I can touch a second key by the time I hear the click of the first. This is confusing because I have to look up to make sure the first touch registered. I like having audio feedback, but may have to silence it unless future updates reduce the lag time.

Now I don’t need to purchase and adding machine. I’ve been planning on buying one for a while because I really want to see the history of my entries, but this is even better; no need to print it out and buy/waste paper adding machine tape. No need to even buy an adding machine. I know that there are other this app apps which show the history in some inconspicuous location if you know the secret password and cross your eyes just so, but this one is so much more convenient. The history is up front and center without having to say the magic word. Well done!

It always gives me the right answer and it never ever glitches I was looking for an answer since I didn’t know the answer to it and it gave me the answers super fast I only have one complaint whenever you tap on the button it takes like two seconds to show on the screen but that’s my only complaint besides that amazing app

by 😁😀sily

The this app is the Best this app you can ever find. You can do any math equation you could ever find. I like the history part because it shows you that you don’t does question and you can see if you already did it. You can even learned from it. Like your parents can’t give you a list of math equations. And you can first opened and then check if you did it The question right find out what you can do.🙂

I am not exaggerating in the slightest this application has changed my life for the best. Before, I had trouble adding, subtracting, and dividing (I’ve always had a knack for multiplying so I’ve rarely had issues in that front) but since Calculator, I have been just absolutely crunching the he*l out of some numbers! This is so much worse than the built in this app application. PS if Meghan is reading this congratulations on getting married last night!

I usually accomplish my calculating needs with a TI-30X-II-S, as it is ideal for the common trigonometry that pops up in daily life. However, if I find myself without it, yet have my iPad, then this this app app is often the next logical option. It performs all the functions necessary with an acceptable visual interface, but my preference is for the feel of a dedicated device that almost becomes an extension of my hand. The physical touch of the entering data on a touch screen is less appealing to me, as I have to look at the screen to avoid input error; the TI allows touch familiarity, much like when operating a TV remote.
For casual use, it is a solid option. For my preferences, it is my second option... for now.

At first I didn’t enjoy Calculator because it is visually cluttered/confusing. As I used it each day, I appreciate the storage area on the left side which can be fully deleted or delete individual calculations. I am on a 1200 calorie/day diet and I use this to determine the calories for each meal then transfer the result to another this app. If I had to select only one this app in Calculator Store, this would be the definitive one.

by Blondie-Locs

Calculator does exactly what I need done without the dizzying options that some calculators come with and without the overly disruptive advertisements. I’ve used this this app for years having been disappointed with the bombardment of distractions on other calc. apps. Calculator stays on my home screen dock and is placed there any time I get a new device. Developers occasionally create apps that are worthy of being “Go To’s.” This is one of them. That about “SUMS” it up.😉

by Foxliam

This this app app is absolutely the best. You can do scientific functions or basic math it even allows you to use the memory keys. There is also history section that keeps track of all the calculations just in case you need them. End it also shows you in list form everything that you were typing in so you can make sure that if you make a mistake you can fix it fast. It’s simple and easy to use. I also really love the huge buttons.

by Soo-gee

I just needed a this app. They don’t seem to make them anymore. They are all so complicated. This is really easy to use. It keeps track of what you have recently done so you can your work while you are using the this app. Kind of a safety measure if you get interrupted while using it. Cool 😊 It also has a scientific this app for those who need that you can switch too that one if that is what you need. I really appreciate that they are separated. Thank you for thinking of all of us.

by Clicker 74

I absolutely love that it gives a history. It is the first this app that I have used that I can check to see if I entered things correctly. Plus it has a back arrow to correct mistakes if I notice them right away. I may have made an error, or sometimes, I forget to press the function key of adding another item and therefore two things get all run together. Any other this app, I would have to start all over, but not with this one. Thank you for a couple priceless improvements. I now want to use this this app over any other one or even an adding machine.

by BJonesSLP

A huge improvement over the stock this app, but, as other reviewers have noted, the ad coverage is annoying. I could deal with the ever-present banner at the bottom, but the full-screen pop-up that just recently started completely disables Calculator , and the tiny kill-switch “x” in the corner is—by design, of course—virtually impossible to engage, frequently making it necessary to exit Calculator and restart in order to restore function. I’d happily pay a one-time fee to get rid of the ads, but the option isn’t available. Although I do like Calculator , the advertising interference has me looking for an alternative.

by Star-master

This would be a 5 star app without the tons of ads it is littered with. It seems every square inch of open screen is taken up with them. It also slows down the loading and operation. I have since switched to another this app offered on Calculator Store. I realize app writers need to be paid for their work but all of these ads are annoying and unacceptable especially when there are so many other offerings. Perhaps limiting to a single ad might help the operation, create less screen clutter and speed up loading and operation.

by Vermont Biker

I don't need lots of bells and whistles, so this suits me fine. There are several extra functions available, yet they do not complicate the visuals I see. Being able to see my calculation history, and clear it when I wish, is very useful. This is a solid app. I have used it for several years, and have never found a need to look for anything else.

by PetuniaBlue

June 3, 2019 - Thank you for the recent update which corrected the decimal point. Really appreciate the this app.

This is a really nice this app. Lots of extras; however, for my purposes - I only needed a basic this app. My only complaint are the pop up ads which get in the way when I am trying to work. I don’t mind the scrolling ads at the bottom.

by Robin @ ArtFRONT

It's an excellent this app. I particularly appreciate the history function that let's you re-work or add in previous formulas.
The advertisements do throw me off though and I'm definitely not used to seeing pop ups while working on math but I understand the need to collect $$. If I weren't so cheap I'd buy the full version with no ads. ~R.
