Why do Fraction and Currency Calculator only have limited uses
Developer, You have to fix this option, that when you go to the, fractions and currency calculator, you have to pay to premium, which in terms, limits the uses of the calculator app altogether, it isn’t fair when, in the fractions & currency calculator, after a few answers, it tells you to pay for premium, IT IS NOT FAIR!! FOR ANYONE!!, WHO WANT’S TO USE THE APP FOR FREE!!, this in terms, makes people angry and make bad reviews, so please if you listen, you should listen to the reviewers, make sure that all calculators, Maths Solvers or any important maths apps to become, unlimited calculations and also doesn’t involve buying premium, as people who, don’t have the money to buy premium, it is not fair for anyone, who uses this app, for productivity and important uses. Ads on the other hand, are annoying and should be removed in the app as it, destroys the app entirely. I hope this review, give you a mind, to listen to your reviewers, about downfalls about app, Developer, I must say, make an update, where you remove premium purchases in all calculators, Maths Solvers and Maths App and also remove unnecessary ads. That is well appreciated, it could also help make the app better. This is why I gave it 3 ⭐️.

BROKEN AFTER RECENT UPDATE
This was a brilliant calculator app I have been using for years. After the recent update It has broken it in many ways.
The first being you no longer get a running total as you calculating equations. This also means you can no longer press delete if you have input any figures by mistake without having to start the calculation all over again.
This has resulting in reduced efficiency and a lot of time being wasted when trying to make simple but long calculations. Long equations that I make have to be started over and over again if I just input one figure incorrectly. It is a serious annoyance that has now basically made this once brilliant calculator unusable any longer.
I must add there were many advertisements that were very excessive, however I was willing to put up with this for the functionality of the calculator. However now that that functionality is missing after this recent update it is unbearable. Please revert back to the previous edition. The cosmetic upgrades were nice but once again the functionality terrible please correct.

Who charges for a calculator
Pay a subscription or watch full screen ads to do basic math. Absolutely not. Deleted. Cant afford to run the simplest app with just banners? Yikes.
Do Not Get This App, Unless You Like To Watch Full Screen Ads
This app started off great and did not have ads. The company let the app users know it was switching to an add based model or you pay a monthly fee to not have ads. I have no problem with an ad based model because I am using the app for free and the company needs to make money to pay staff to keep the app running smoothly. What they did not inform users is that when you start the app you are stuck for at least 1 minute with a full page ad with no way to exit out of the ad without purchasing whatever game is being advertised. After staring at the ad, when all you want to do is make a quick calculation, you then have a smaller add on the calculator. I f you are on the calculator for a longer period of time another full page ad will pop up often while you are in the middle of a calculation. If there was just the smaller ad on the calculator, like most other companies have, this app would be great. Unfortunately this is not the model they used and they have lost this customer. I deleted this app and I recommend that you do not download this app unless you like to watch full screen ads about game.

Was great until the recent update
I paid for this calculator app as it’s been brilliant for the past year. I use it on my ipad with the workings column showing on the left and love it. Then there was an update. Now every single time I open it I get a ridiculous white menu on the left offering things I don’t want. My workings column is gone. I have to close said white column, and then select to show my workings. EVERY SINGLE TIME! If I swipe to another screen to look up a figure and go back, that ridiculous column is back. It’s infuriating and has made the app useless to me. Why do you have to have things shoved down your throat? I wrote to app support a week ago but have yet to receive a response. If there’s no way to switch this off and keep to the view that I want and use all the time, every day, I’m deleting it and going elsewhere. Not at all happy.

Pretty normal
Just gives you the answer quickly and is useful and has good updates
Would be perfect BUT
I just wanted a simple calculator. Something like my £2 hand calculator. This was near perfect. OK, it came up with an advert at the start when opened but it’s getting worse. The screen fills with a game of some sort or other and you don’t know how to get rid of. Press something and it disappears but then comes back. Then that goes off but you’re faced with another advert. Do you look at top right or top left for an ‘x’ to turn it off? Sometimes. Other times at bottom of screen you see a timer which counts down to reveal a ‘close’ box. FINALLY get to the calculator! Yeah. Three seconds and I’ve done what I wanted. Pity about the wasted 30 seconds frustratedly looking round screen to see how to turn off ad. Of course could pay for advert free but it’s NOT cheap. Much cheaper to go into shop and buy physical calculator. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS. It eventually drove me crazy. Will do same to you.

Love it, but…
(Reviewing the free version) I absolutely love this calculator, especially now that it includes unit conversion and currency features. I frequently use conversions like kilos to pounds/ounces, and meters to feet, and having them readily available without needing to open a browser is incredibly convenient. The addition of the currency feature is also a big plus for me! I also appreciate the history feature. However, a major downside is the intrusive ads that occasionally disrupt my workflow. While I understand the need for ads to support the developer, the large and long ending pop-up ads of games can be frustrating. I don't mind the small ads that are always showing at the bottom, but the large intrusive ones are a hassle. Additionally, the annual subscription fee of $59 seems exorbitant to me. I'd be more inclined to consider paying for the app if the price were lower and if it were a one-time fee.

Simple to use, Easy to see
This is a very handy app, with six calculators to choose from. It fills the screen of my iPad so is very user friendly for those of us with slight vision issues.
Here’s hoping the IOS 18 rumors are true
You have destroyed what used to be a great calculator app. The amount of ads just to do a basic function are ridiculous. Rumor has it that IOS 18 will finally have an iPad calculator app. If that is true, the first thing I will do is uninstall this app. I hope that most of your users will do the same…maybe then you will finally understand that you ruined a good thing.
