Quite useful App

Paid for a “lifetime” and the developer rolled over to a freemium model. Dishonest marketing.

Subscription fee for a calculator

I am a hobbyist wood worker and was looking for a calculator to do fractional math occasionally. Once or twice a month. I’m not paying a subscription for a construction calculator. I would have been willing to pay a ONE time fee for a calculator. I can buy a real calculator that can complete these operations for the cost of this app. Not worth it to me.

Scam

It is a scam app

No

Jenial

Math

Quick and easy

Ughhh … $39 subscription per annum

Great potential, but I’m deleting it and will buy another app. I’m happy to pay for someone’s hard work but $40 per year for a calculator. WOW. That’s insulting.

Forced paywall

Used to be great, then they forced the ONLY FEATURE WORTH USING behind a crummy paywall. Not worth downloading and they should be ashamed of themselves

No free option

Another app that says it’s free, but it needs a credit card for you to try it

Ya, no to subscription anything

I’m not ever going to pay a subscription for antilock brakes in a car, for photo editing software or a calculator. Big no.

Switched to Subscription Model

I bought this app and some of the additional features through in-app-purchases a while ago. It's a calculator, no fuss, no muss, it did the job well for DIY projects. As a calculator, it's not like this app needs constant updates or feature creep.

But now they have switched the app to a subscription model. $40.00 a year for a calculator. A Calculator!

I can still access the features I paid for. But you first have to see a new home screen that shows you the other features the app wants you to pay a subscription model to use. It doesn't just launch into the calculator I already paid for.

I know the economy is rough for everyone. But turning a calculator into a SAAS app is disgusting!

Why did you change this app?!

I use to love this calculator. I used it everyday for my job. I love that I can quickly convert from metric to imperial. It was well worth the cost when I originally purchased it. Now when I open the calculator I have to select a section and if I want it to stay on that section every time I use the app, I have to pay a premium! Why must we always fix things that aren’t broken. The calculation is not reliable anymore either. I did a simple multiplication on it yesterday and it gave me an answer with an extra 0 in it. Extremely disappointed.

Another update and another problem. There is no way to contact this creator to advise of an issue so I’m adding it to my review. When working to get an area and it gives me ft2 for example, if I hit the answer button to further calculate volume it takes the 2 in ft2 and turns it into an exponent causing the answer to be completely wrong. Please fix.

WHAT EVEN IS THIS UPDATE?????

I have used this for many years and LOVED it but what in the world is this awful convoluted updated? And you changed to a subscription model? If yall had left it alone I would have considered paying a small subscription but not now!!!! This is an unusable mess!

Scam

I bought this a few years ago in a lump sum to be able to use this app for life. It got an update 2 days ago. When i opened this app today, it asked me to pay to get rid of the advertisement windows at the bottom of the screen. Really?

Seriously?

I've already paid 14.99 dollars for full functions back in the day when it was great. I thought I could restore purchase to get premium functions. But surprisingly no way.

This is how they treat old paid customers. Good job.

No fractions in answer

Used to show x/x now it just does a x.x not helpful

Prior paid customer being locked out

Every update I get locked out from the paid features again. There was a time I loved this app, but I generally can’t support subscription services anymore. It’s gotten out of hand.

No esta buena

Ni descarguen no los deja hacer nada antes de que paguen no puedes ni ver si te va a servir la aplicacion y ya quieren que pagues muy mala

Too expensive and useless without paying

I used to use this and like it.

But they’ve recently changed the app so that results are ONLY shown in decimal format unless you pay $5/month or $40/year. That’s an insanely high price for a fraction calculator. They’re insane. There are other, better options. I could buy a standalone calculator fr CI for a one-time payment of less than $40. Annual? Nuts.

So while I used to use this, I’m now deleting it as I’m not paying $40/year for a calculator, and it’s utterly useless otherwise.

No more results in fractions? REVERT!

Please, please revert the change that prevents results from being shown in fractions. Please.

Was good, not anymore

All the features were free for use and worked without issue and now the app uses a monthly premium to get the useful features instead of reducing to decimals even. Good app just way too expensive for the features that were free in the past
