RPN is so much easier!
Thank you for putting a 12C on my iPad.
Way Faster Than The Real HP12c
Believe it or not, I still have my HP12C bought in 1982. This app does not have the same keyboard feel, but it runs a lot faster. What takes 10 to 20 seconds to compute on the HP12C, this app spits out the result in a flash. To change the color scheme, press the ON (light bulb) button.
Great for on the road
I usually have my iPad in my briefcase, so with this app I also have a financial calculator with me. I have never been comfortable carrying my HP 12C in my briefcase.
Calc
Nice calculator if you are familiar with HP financial calculators. Graphics are weak (no colors).
No trackpad support for iPad
I love the HP12-c and using this app gives a very familiar feeling. Additionally, it is well optimized for multitask support.
The only thing that is missing is the trackpad support. You cant click on anything with the trackpad/mouse for whatever reason. Probably an easy fix, but just a FYI if you plan on purchasing.

Good but with a few bugs
I rely on an HP-12C and usually have one in my bag, but this is a great substitute. I’ve tried other emulator apps but most are either ad-filled or expensive. This one is great but slightly buggy
Main annoyance is the “EEX” button is coded incorrectly; for example typing “100 EEX 3” gives 10^23 instead of 10^5.

Excellent, but not without minor bugs
This is my go-to financial calculator. It is pretty much everything you get from an HP-12c.
The only thing you should know about it is the SWAP (X<>Y) key is mislabeled- it looks like it got translated somehow to "X<not equals sign>Y". The key still does what it' supposed to do. It also doesn't have backspace but this wasn't on the original HP-12c so it's forgivable.
It works under iPad multitasking- (very few calculators do)-- it has some font problems in multitasking but it's usable.

Great replication of Hp RPN financial calculator
For over 40 yrs I’ve used both my physical Hp12c calculators at work, with customers on the fly, and personally. So dependable, never broke. Now I use this App coz it’s so convenient and accessible. I’ve just had to get used to using it portrait mode too. I just say, “hey Siri open financial calculator App” and it appears 🤙

hard to see, found fix!
Used to work great but one of the last updates changed the key colors to green, which is fine until you press the function key and they dim so much that you cant see the key labels. Supposedly they offer different color choices but I can’t find any way to change them. I’ve used this as a backup to my handheld hp12c for 5-10 years and was very happy with it until this change.
Edit. if you hit ENTER then * it will toggle to another color combo. Keep doing that until you find one you like.

Ok, but has font-sizing bug in multitask mode
I like the clean and quick design, and the fact that it works in iOS 13 multitask and split-screen modes. There is a font resizing bug, however, in multitask and split-screen modes that makes it difficult to use in these modes. When switching to these modes the fonts get larger instead of smaller and the characters are chopped off at the bottom of the feature space making them somewhat unintelligible. This is particularly a problem for the numeric display because the decimal point cannot be seen at all. I would give it 5 stars but for this bug.

Great
Split screen and Slide over view for iPad are buggy since iOS 13 came out. The calculator still works, but there are some glitches with how it displays. Ran just fine before iOS 13. iPhone version and full screen on iPad are unaffected.
Great for price
The time value of money function works perfectly. But I am struggling with getting the multiplication and division functions to work. Additionally the clear button seems unclear to me. Would appreciate the developers lave the button with a "C" or "Clear"
Yikes! No Help or instructions
I guess I’m not the target audience. I want to do the calculations described but need a little help and instructions. There are none and I’m baffled. DUI is not attractive but I wouldn’t care if the app was accessible and functional
Almost as great as the real deal
I've been using a 12-c since business school (early 80s). Never needed or wanted anything else. I think I'm on my 3rd one in 35 years - not bad.
While I still break out my actual 12-c from time to time, I mostly use the virtual one on all my devices - iPhone, iPad and various Macs.
Getting this little widget was a no-brainer, and is a very serviceable 12-c substitute (if you're a long-time 12-c user) or new experience (for you youngsters out there).

12-c review
I've used an HP 12-C since business school (30 years ago) to the point where I can barely use a standard calculator anymore. 12-C does the trick. Buttons are in there same placement and functions all work the same. The only difference is the lack of the button clicks on the app. Definitely recommend for finance professionals....

Won't be disappointed
I have used this app for a couple years, and it is my go to for quick TVM or financial calculations. As way of a suggested feature, the only feature I wish it had was memory when returning to the app after being closed for some time. It's easy enough to enter variables again, but it would be nice if the PV, or i registers would hold their values until cleared. Similar to the modern Ti calculators we grew up using behave.
That said, this is still my go to for quick out of the office calculations. Thank you for a clean, easy to use 12c!

At Last--Maybe A Financial Calculator For Visually Impaired!
I was amazed that Webgota has thought to label buttons and numbers on this iOS app so VoiceOver reads them clearly. For 23 years, I as a totally blind business student and financial planner was disadvantaged, not having a way independently to calculate internal rates of return, net present and future values, amortization, etc. Now with Financial Calculator Premium, this all seems possible,
Looking forward to digging in.

Free version of HP 12c
Can't beat the app, since the price is 'free'. Anyone who has owned a HP 12c will like this app.
I wish their was more user manual institutions listed in the app and took a few minutes to find out how to change the keyboard and back-screen colors. Go down to the 'sun' button on the bottom-left side, and you can scroll through keyboard colors with a white or black back-ground.

Good Enough
Reasonably good HP-12c emulator although there are a few "gotcha moments" for this old leasing guy who lived or died by his 12c for a good number of years. Still have a working 12c and occasionally the app doesn't work quite like real thing and / or for some of the more obscure functions the answer isn't quite the same as the calculator. But we don't do that stuff on a calculator any more and for what most people do with this sort of thing (car leases, mortgages and so-forth) the app is fine.
I'll agree with many others that the premature and persistent asking one to write a review gets annoying after a while.

Review
Keeps asking to write a review every five minutes.
It would be nice to have a help button. It has been a while since I used a financial calculator and the to the power-(^) button is nonexistent? && The yX button is not working for me.. I tried how I would with other financial calculators but no luck. I even googled how to do it and every way that is on the Internet is not compatible with this calculator for Powers. My TI 82 was in my closet for years and when I pulled it out the batteries had rusted & corroded making it useless.
