Leave a Review PCalc
Best alternate for the now defunct M48+
Would be perfect if it had units associated with data.
I was a long user of HP48s and the the M48+ app. Sadly when I upgraded my iPad recently I found that M48+ is no longer available. PCalc seems to be the closest match. Programming is not near as nice as HP48 style. Also PCalc cannot work with units tagged data. It does have units conversions but the unit is not associated with the data. The best feature of PCalc is the customized key layouts. You can setup layouts for different types of work that needs to be done.Show lessEsorcc
Looking forward for edit numbers on screen
Great calculator! Cannot wait for an update that allows me to edit the numbers on a tape or from the screen. Saves major time and I doesn't have to keep swiping left and retyping everything again. Thank youObadiahcruz
Awesome Calculator, Awesome Developer
Best Calc app that I have used. Have lots of Calc apps but this is the one I keep coming back to for all needs. Engineering, Math, and even casual grocery store stuff. The nicest thing is this developer actually understands and supports all of the iOS versions that are claimed to be supported. Can't say that for other developers, some even "big name" developers. Thank you guys for a great product!!!Show less__JN__
Great calculator; watch complication needs work
Obviously this is the best calculator on the phone. But the watch complication work is not there. Friendly suggestions: 1) offer a variety of options for what the various complications look like. 2) offer an infograph modular complication that displays info from the calculator, at least showing numbers or constants or something... 3) the top of the infograph complication should serve a similar purpose with text. Use the watch guys!!Show lessOK_NYC11
Needs 64 Bit Support
PCalc is a good app but if it is going to provide number base operations (hex, octal, decimal, binary) then it needs to add 64 bit support. Even cell phones are 64 bit. Software developers work in 64 bit environments while PCalc only provides support for 48 bits. I have emailed the developer at least 4 times since 2011 and still no 64 bit support. Lack of 64 bit support is inexcusable in this day and age. The best calculator for iOS bar none is free and the name of the app is Sci:Pro. It is 64 bit and has everything that you need at no cost. I give PCalc 3 start because it does everything else very well, but if you want to save some money and deal with a very responsive app developer, give Sci:Pro a try.Show lessJim92677
Works great – ANIMATED PANDAS!
This app runs circles around any other calculator in the App Store, and is well worth the price. No problem installing it on phone or Watch, also version for TV and macOS, and functions great on all devices. App author is very responsive & regularly updates the app with new features. if you run into a problem email or Twitter him instead of writing negative reviews!
Holy 💩! Animated 🐼 stickers now! This calculator app does everything you could dream up — except for a kitchen sink — but it can calculate the size of one if you give it the dimensions!Show lessiphonereviewer#2
Difficult to find what your looking for.
I own several calculator apps but with this one I can’t seem to get beyond basic function capability. Even after paying $10 for the full version it looks like I paid for just a basic calculator. That means the advanced functions are really not there or to difficult to figure out how to get to.
It’s great for doing conversions or using physical constants. However, for any kind of advanced math, I will have to go to my other apps.Show lessCelticEddieL
Best Calculator I’ve Ever Used
I am a retired biochemist. I used a slide rule for the first 10 years of my career and then the finest HP calculators that were available until I retired. This PCalc is as good or better for my purposes than any other calculator I have ever owned. I use strictly RPN, and there are a couple of quirks that you have to get use to, e.g. you have to use the “swap” key when solving combinatorics with the built in combination and permutation keys, which is anti intuitive, but easy to get use to. Overall this is a really nice calculator and I can recommend it for most common math applications with no reservations.Show lessgwmelchi
I can’t get that last banana!
Yea, it’s a great calculator...no doubt. But I cannot get that last banana. I have tried traction mode...heck, all the modes...i’ve tried the chunky truck and the semi-racer car...but every time I jump, I OVER jump and miss the mark.
I will try firing light at it...maybe I can get it that way....ok, I’ll try that...
I am also highly suspect of that regular flight that passes over me...and the tiny train. I am convinced that I can somehow hit the plane with light (or maybe a 42??) and then I will be flying instead of driving.
The dance continues...
Update...I spoke too soon...I am now a helicopter pilot, so still lots to explore...Show lessboboneill
Used to be great BUT...UPDATED 7/7/18
Tech finally got back to me and suggested a reset that worked and restored everything back to normal...so revised back to 5 stars!
Ever since iOS 11, whenever I attempt to download/operate it, all I get is a fragmented keyboard and multiple blank squares. Hoping one day it will get fixed.Dennismk
