Was working great now not

Idk what happened it used to work fine even with low signal but now my calculations just disappear randomly. It’s very frustrating. I don’t always have a lot of signal I need this to work offline too. I need to be able to keep working on things anytime I can save to device and they disappear more often. Just gone. So frustrated. I need to be able to rename the calculations not just have them numbered with date and time. Whatever text I put at top should be the name but it’s not. It was on a couple idk how I managed that but not anymore.

Sem dúvida, a melhor da App Store

Tenho essa calculadora para Windows também e jamais, nem de perto, vi um design de calculadora de fita tão bonito e útil.

Doesn’t sync between devices

Very annoying. It also erases completely your tabulations for no reason. It used to be a great app but not so great now.
