Is does exactly what it’s supposed to do and it will work just like a regular calculator. Also I saw Someone say they paid $5 for add removal and they had a subscription on it that renewed after one your and they didn’t know they was being charged… this app has no adds at all and it has no subscription or anything to buy that costs money. This is just a simple calculator app with no adds or subscriptions. I don’t know why people are saying that they paid money to add and subtract, but this is not true at all.😂
Why, with access to nigh infinitely malleable software, a company like apple would voluntarily choose to make their calculator work like it’s from 1973 is beyond me, but they have. The only thing that you can see is the current number you are typing, and that’s it. Once you’ve moved on from typing one number you will never see it again, not even when you’re done. That’s right, with a calculator that doesn’t display what you’ve typed you’d think you’d at least be able to review your equation in a history tab, but no, they couldn’t even do that. You gotta type every equation as carefully as a new password being double verified, because if you’re like me, you’re gonna type every god forsaken equation you have to do on this app at least twice, because the ambiguity otherwise is just unbearable. But, if you’re even more like me, you’re just gonna avoid this abomination of software like the plague.
I have a few things,
Firstly, the user interface is horrible. The fact that certain features are hidden until you rotate your phone is absurd, there should at least be a button to change between the two in portrait mode. And the fact that you cannot see what you have inputted into the calculator, nor what you have previously calculated makes the situation worse.
Parentheses don’t even show up during a calculation once pressed, and god forbid you accidentally click the wrong mathematical symbol!
Secondly, the application that they have labeled a UTILITY, is disgustingly incapable of doing simple maths such as the equation “6/2(1+2)”. In which the calculator provides the answer as “2”, when the correct answer is “1”. And while that may not be far off, it is not something that is complicated to compute. And the fact that I cannot see if I typed the equation correctly makes the situation all the worse!
For such a large and wealthy company I cannot believe you haven’t seen this error.
You should really look into redesigning and correctly calibrating this simple basic app and it’s functions, because at this point you’re essentially providing misinformation to the public.
I don’t understand, why are people blaming it on the calculator app? There is just something wrong with their phones. And I also don’t understand because one person “Thanks for notes!” And now there blaming in the wonderful, amazing, great, and totally useful( everybody’s phone doesn’t work so to them it’s not useful.) calculator app! I love just playing on calculator and just doing random numbers and adding them, subtracting them, etc. I am giving this a 5 Star review!
I subscribed to this app at a yearly renewal for a reasonable price. It renewed after a year at the same price. I recently found out that the app changed it subscription to a weekly charge at the beginning of my third year renewal without giving me any type of notification. I have been charged $5.99 plus tax every week since Aug 1st of last year. I believe that I am not alone in having many different charges coming out my of my account automatically so an app charging my account could easily be over looked. A word to the wise, always check on what apps are charging you because it can easily revert to a different charge without notice. I'm sure that's in the fine print when you accept the terms and conditions but who really reads those?
Not being able to see the entire input makes computing anything much harder then it should be. That said, basic math functions (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) work fine. Using more advanced functions however, is incredibly annoying. Just trying finding the square root of 2 multiplied by the square root of 3 (no using the square root of 6). It would be so much easier if you could just see the entire input.
I can’t remember if I wrote a review, so here’s either the first or the second!
I really really like this calculator. I like its large print. I can’t see that well anymore and this is a huge help.
I had a brain aneurysm several years ago and my mind is not the same as it used to be. I have a very difficult time with addition and subtraction, sometimes even with the simplest equations, like what is 6+9 or, today, how do I divide 50 between two people?
Thank you very very much for this!
I use the calculator for work every day, but it is extremely frustrating to use. I have to turn it sideways to use parentheses, and even then I’m not sure if I’m putting the correct things in parentheses because it doesn’t show you what you are entering or what you have entered. I wish it would type it all out so that you could see the whole equation like Samsung does. Also because it doesn’t show what is being typed I have to start completely over if I made a mistake or if I even think I made a mistake
This app worked fine and I used it all the time. I noticed this afternoon that it disappeared from my screen. I came here and noticed someone else said the same thing! I also have no way to restore it to my screen. Weird!
I find how to reinstall the calculator that comes on the iPhone. Swipe to your main Home Screen and wipe one more time left to right, then swipe down from top to bottom until you get pass all the news stuff and whatever else there is then you will see the calculator up there so hold the widget until u can drag it down like you do other apps to rearrange it and drag to where you want it
