### 5/5 — BEST of 7 Free Lite Calc's (vg support)

*2012-03-29*

Yep, 'reviewed over 7 different calculators, and this was the clear best for me with 1 animated runner up.  Why, you ask?  
•  Best combination of big buttons (colored by their purpose, too) and most-used function keys.  
•  Quick screen flip reveals the most-used special functions like memory keys, parentheses, math functions, etc. 
 Went right back 2 days after my CalcQX trial and shelled out the big 99 cents for the paid version. 
•  The developer is actively providing handy app updates.

### 5/5 — inexpensive and effective

*2011-06-20*

I'll just get to the point. It does what I want, namely calculate, in nice large readable type. 

Pay the 99 cents, you won't regret it!

### 5/5 — Calculator that is actually usable

*2011-05-10, version v1.5*

For me most computer calculators are really only usable as a last resort. I always go for the actual calculator, until now. Fully recommended

### 5/5 — Awesome

### 1/5 — Jack

*2017-04-27*

I paid for it but it doesn't work

### 1/5 — Review for free (lite) version only

*2011-04-19*

Have you ever been browsing in a shop, trying to assess the merchandize, while an annoying clerk keeps tapping you on the shoulder to ask if you are ready to purchase something? That's what using the lite version feels like. The distracting animated text, urging you to upgrade. The popup, appearing randomly in the middle of the calculations, asking the same. 

Had the developer just insisted I cough up 0.99, I'd probably have done so. But the free trial was so irritating, that I cannot imagine that the developer is interested in the end-user experience. 

Ironically, at the same time I tried this app, I tried an app called Calculess. I did have to pay 0.99 up front to try it out. But it's an entirely different experience, and i gave it 5 stars. Maybe CalcQX has a few more bells and whistles, but they are overwhelmed by the ambulance sirens and car alarms.

### 3/5 — Useful but clumsy.

*2013-10-22*

I find the app useful, but a bit clumsy.  Don't appreciate all the rolling crap on left side of screen.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2013-11-16*

This little app is just perfect for quick calculations and the memory is handy.

### 4/5 — Razoável!

*2013-06-08*

Uma calculadora razoável. Muito comum!

### 4/5 — Great app

*2012-12-31*

I like that you can see 20 or so previous calculations. Only downside is that it can only be viewed in landscape orientation

### 4/5 — Calculator wonders

*2012-09-07*

Best way to keep on budget right at my fingertips

### 5/5 — Terrific calculator

*2020-12-04*

I don’t use any of the scientific or trigonometry available but the memory slots and the ability to go back and see previous functions is the big seller.

### 5/5 — Dated but still Great!

*2019-07-23*

Although this Calculator is dated(takes a few seconds to load) it has 4 addition, easy to use, memory slots. It also shows your last 20 calculations on another screen. If you make an error on a long entry you can back out of it number by number!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2018-07-19*

I have used this app for years. Absolutely the best calculator app going.
