The Store/Recall functionality is awkward. The need to hold two buttons at once is clumsy.
A generally smooth and uncomplicated system is not applied to the store/ recall implementation
Love the streamlined operation
Big buttons and smooth navigation across the pages. You should apply your talents to make a better (similar) Watch experience. All too crowded and clunky.
Need improvements
I’ve been using a physical 42S and emulator on my phone for years. The down side is that the keys and display font are small. Apple default calculator app, on the other hand, have very large font and large key size, but it’s not RPN. This calculator here has the potential to be a great alternative to both, but it’s not (yet).
1. Stack display is a bit confusing. Took me a while to figure out Y is on top left corner, and then the next 3 levels up on the right. It would be more consistent if you skip the top left corner position, and just have the stack on the right.
2. While alternate functions are activated by long pressing the number keys/layer, in the advanced function keys/layer, it requires pressing ALT then another key. Why the different behavior?
3. Store/recall does not work at all.

Huh???
I agree with Talasoft guy. I went through engineering school using an HP 15 C calculator. I found this calculator too confusing to use. The developer might want to consider that people looking for an RPN calculator app are those of us who are familiar with RPN and don’t want to carry around a calculator anymore. In other words don’t alienate the people who are most likely to use your app. Furthermore, I am not sure anyone trying to learn RPN will make any sense to what’s happening on this calculator.

Awesome
Nice and simple RPN calculator. If the font size of the stack numbers were bigger, it would be perfect.
Really good
This is a really good RPN calculator, I couldn’t ask for anything more.
Response from developer
Thanks!
Perfect
Couldn’t ask for a better RPN calculator for iOS
Response from developer
Thanks!
Great app for RPN
The rpn app I had been using for years is no longer available, so I switched to this one. I’m glad I did; it’s very good. I had a question about using it and emailed the developer; he got right back to me with the information I needed. If you use reverse Polish notation, give this a try.

Thank you very much :-)
Best calculator on the App Store
Does what it needs, doesn't beg you for money, stays out of your way and lets you calculate.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!
Response from developer
You are welcome :) Thank you for the kind words and using the app.
Brilliant
RPN30 is a fantastic implementation of RPN in an easy to understand and use calculator. The HP calculator emulators are good but can be too complex and have unneeded features for 90% of people's need. This will be my go-to everyday calculator.
