### 2/5 — Take of his face

*2026-02-16, version 4.0.3*

I have used this app for years. When they updated it, there’s now a timeframe to wait to load the app whereas before it did it instantly. On top of that the time for him to wait is us staring at some dude‘s face. It’s super annoying and not professional. Kind of seems narcissistic. take the dude‘s face off a Calculator app… has nothing to do with calculations.

### 3/5 — Good app but….

*2024-05-10, version 4.0.3*

I like the app. Just wish  when you opened the app it would just to the calculator. I don’t need to see the guys face when I am trying to open the app. It slows down time and it just unnecessary

### 3/5 — Update app for IOS 14

*2022-12-01, version 4.0.3*

Can you please do an update for IOS 14. Love using this app but have a new phone and now if I do a pricing everything is wrong with a negative total 🤷🏽‍♀️

### 4/5 — Good app, would like to see more…

*2022-07-26, version 4.0.3*

This is a useful tool. It would be great to see a feature that would allow to calculate commission based on a % of margin.

### 4/5 — I would do 5 Stars if….

*2022-07-08, version 4.0.3*

First, I highly recommend this app. It’s a must have!

It would be even greater if the Margin and Markup calculator could do a backwards calculation. 

Such as, if I only have the cost and want to set the markup or margin at a certain amount. It would be even better if it auto calculated the retail based on setting the margin. 

Thanks for making such an awesome tool that helps me so very much daily!!

### 3/5 — Margin works not caulator

*2021-10-10, version 4.0.3*

Calculator has found major errors with floating decimal points on dollar and cent calculations.  Gives me doubts if the margin portion is working good now.

### 2/5 — Downgraded

*2021-06-09, version 4.0.3*

The calculator is terrible and the margin-price feature was much better on the old version.

### 2/5 — Basic calculation issues

*2021-01-08, version 4.0.3*

The percent key on the calculator does not function properly. If I input 1000 - 15% = I get 1999.85 so it is deducting .15. On a regular calculator I would calculate to 850. This is a huge over site. I like that it included a basic calculator so you don’t have to switch between apps when figuring calculations.

### 2/5 — Bring back the old vision

*2021-01-03, version 4.0.3*

I don’t like The new update bring back the old vision

### 3/5 — Meh

*2020-12-10, version 4.0.3*

This guys face pops up everytime you open the app and it’s really creepy

### 2/5 — Used to be great

*2020-11-19, version 4.0.0*

The new updated version of this app is terrible. It was much easier to use before the update.

### 2/5 — Updates are not always better

*2020-11-14, version 4.0.0*

The old version of this was so much better! The screen was bright and inviting now it’s dark and gloomy. The inputs are still simple but you have to click off the keyboard now to get results where you didn’t before, which is annoying. The calculator on the new version doesn’t work correctly either (doesn’t subtract % correctly).

### 3/5 — New update is horrible!!!!

*2020-11-12, version 4.0.0*

I use this app every day and this update has made me look for other options to use.

### 2/5 — Commas

*2020-11-12, version 4.0.0*

Thousands separators. Commas. Commas. Commas. Commas. ...Did I say commas? 

All functions need to have the thousands separators, COMMAS added.

### 4/5 — Please fix bugs

*2020-11-10, version 4.0.0*

This new upgrade is terrible—the input glitches. Seems to be getting better.

### 1/5 — Offer other currencies!

*2022-08-10, version 4.0.3*

I know it makes no difference to the outcome but offering the other currencies makes the app aesthetically better.

### 1/5 — Meh

*2022-02-14, version 4.0.3*

It’s really annoying waiting for the headshot to go away before being able to calculate anything. Looking for a new calculator as I’m often needing to use it while out at accounts and can’t get to the numbers fast enough.

### 1/5 — Bored while waiting.

*2021-11-26, version 4.0.3*

Totally bored while waiting for the head shot to go away. Marketing Narcissism!! Deleted app even though I paid!

### 1/5 — Jim

*2020-12-30, version 4.0.3*

The old version was so much better- hate it now!

### 1/5 — New update is garbage.

*2020-12-16, version 4.0.3*

Go back to the original. New version is horrible.

### 1/5 — New Design is Awful

*2020-11-24, version 4.0.0*

I really miss the old app. Please make this version available again. I’ve grown so accustomed to using it the old way.

### 1/5 — Bring back the previous version please!!

*2020-11-19, version 4.0.0*

This version is much more challenging and awkward to use. Please at least give us a choice of which version to use.

### 1/5 — New update freezes

*2020-11-17, version 4.0.0*

The new update freezes up and won’t allow you to input numbers

### 1/5 — Update ruined the app

*2020-11-09, version 4.0.0*

I was a huge fan of this app until the update. Now it’s horrible. Have to find something else. 
Super slow. Numbers that I type don’t enter. Doesn’t put in the decimals when I enter them. Constant have to close the app out and restart it.

### 1/5 — I don’t like the changes

*2020-11-05, version 4.0.0*

I have to relearn now

Really easy to use, clear, concise, accurate.

### 5/5 — Can’t work without it

*2022-03-23, version 4.0.3*

This app is a career saver! I can’t work without it. User friendly & easy to use.

### 5/5 — CAP RATE?

*2021-05-09, version 4.0.3*

Can we add a Realestate cap rate calculator? A simple one.  value, gross annual income, operating expenses = cap rate %

Advanced calculator with expense details, interest, taxes, insurance etc... could be a “members” only feature.

Is very easy to use and very clean design

### 5/5 — Great App! Love Love

*2020-11-13, version 4.0.0*

I love this app it’s brilliant! I’ve been searching for an app like this for ages and came across it recently, what a blessing. I use both US dollars and Pound for my business so this comes in handy for my daily business needs. 

Thanks to the developer, you made my life easier. I would recommend this app if you sell in multiple currencies.

### 5/5 — Know Your Numbers :)

*2020-11-05, version 4.0.0*

So easy to use with calculations that are so important for any business person to know. Thanks for this free app Marcus!

### 5/5 — Gets the job done

*2020-10-30, version 4.0.0*

Gets you the numbers that you need quickly. Aside from some small sensitivity bugs with the calculator it's perfect for every entrepreneur. I highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Very Handy

*2020-01-30, version 3.0.1*

I’m not sure why people were giving this less than 5/5.  I just downloaded it and it calculates three ways - price, cost and margin.  Numbers are right, it’s super fast so thank you guy who provided this for free.

### 5/5 — User friendly

*2019-07-26, version 3.0.1*

I love how simple it is. It has helped me price items in my online store. I loooooove it. Definitely sharing with others!!

### 5/5 — Muuuuito bom, mas..

*2019-04-23, version 3.0.1*

Mas hoje ocorreu um problema é está persistindo que no lugar do ponto está vírgula e não quer fazer números quebrados, me ajudem
