### 5/5 — Good

*2025-03-15, version 2.0.29*

This does exactly what it says on the tin! No ads,or add ons, simple and clean

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2019-05-31*

I got this app years ago and I have never had a problem with it.  I am surprised there aren’t more users.  I teach math and have used it more than once for really large numbers.

### 1/5 — Seems broken

### 4/5 — Yay!

*2017-11-18*

So happy to see an update to this handy little app. Helping my kids with math homework has been way easier since I downloaded it years ago. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Wha?

*2014-04-16*

I enter a number, it ignores it and tells me another number is prime. Useless.

### 5/5 — I Love It!

*2012-12-11*

I have a little obsession with prime numbers, so this app is great fun for me.  Back in high school (in 1975) I was in the first computer programming class in the LAUSD.  I wrote a little program to give me a list of prime numbers.  The program would be run, at night, on the school districts IBM 360, and took forever (many minutes) just to calculate a number as small 103.  This app handles much much larger numbers with ease, in fractions of a second.  I love it!

### 5/5 — Great

*2012-05-11*

Great app! My only complaint is that when a number is composite, the app doesn't give you its prime factorization. For example, it'll say 12 = 2*6 instead of 12 = 2*2*3

### 5/5 — Works good

*2012-04-10*

### 3/5 — Good

*2011-12-09*

### 5/5 — This app is worth it!

*2010-08-31*

This app shows how such a simple app can serve such an important purpose in your life.  I rarely give out 5 star ratings but this app had simplicity and also acts as a math guide.  Saying that I think this app is creative and worth the extra space on your iPhone/ iPod touch I also think that This app will be helpful to many people.  This app is very enjoyable but sadly I would not pay $0.99 for this easy, creative, helpful application.
I hope this review helps all,
