What's New in iBend Pipe

6.6

October 24, 2026

Built for iPhone Duo iBendPipe now uses the full screen when your iPhone Duo is unfolded. Calculators show a side-by-side layout, with the bend drawing on one side and your inputs on the other. The main menu and bend lists become an easy-to-tap card grid. Native iPad Support iBendPipe now runs natively on iPad. You get the same two-column layout and card menus on the larger screen, so you can plan bends on the tablet you already have on the job. Improvements • Bug fixes and performance improvements.

3/8 manual bender

I do mostly MP 3/8 bends with a 1-1/4 radius. I am unable to find the correct size on this app. I would appreciate it if you guys could add one. If not I really don’t see what I can use this app for
JJeonsjdms

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback, since the app is focused solely on electrical conduit bending, it won't give you the results you're looking for unless you use the multiplier based calculations, which, given how small a radius you are using and small diameter pipe will be very close.

Support for Greenlee 555

Love the app. Thank you

New update is terrible

Why change everything? Used this app for years and it was perfect. New update just ruined it all. I’m deleting and buying a different one.
PPassTheJoobie

Response from developer

It wasn't broken, so why fix it? Well truth be told, the app was getting a little long on the tooth as far as updates, and it needed to be rewritten to stay current. I made a decision to change as little as I could, and only change what I thought would be improvements. I am open to hearing feedback, and keeping the app as useful as it has been.

Ibend pipe update sucks

The old version was better. Changing the slider and to only start with 1” is stupid. Make it start with any fraction before the 1”

No Support for Greenlee 555

I can SEE the Greenlee 555 as an option but I can’t select it. Is there an additional subscription for the greyed out benders?
PJPeter jalapeño

Response from developer

No additional subscription needed, just tap on the "o" or the title of the bender to make it one of your favorites and it will show up as one of the options in your calculation screens.
