### 3/5 — Very Limited Usability

*2022-12-18, version 1.6*

18 Dec 2022

I was hoping for a much better calculator with cleaner and better functionality than just being able to enter a date an time to get JD or any other time format.  The value add that is missed here are:

(1) The ability to enter current local rime without having to compute the UTC.  It’s a calculator and that is very basic functionality.

(2) The ability to be able to copy any field so that it can be pasted to a user’s astronomy log and/or observations made for AAVSO.  

Nine years after the original app was offered and at least these two things should have been incorporated.  I can only give it three stars at this point.  It is time to correct the basic functionality that should have been there all along.

### 4/5 — Works well, but…

*2024-02-22*

The “PING!” When you update the current time is earsplitting. Make that so I can turn it off and you’ll get a ***** review from me. That’s five stars, not cursing, by the way.

### 5/5 — Works very well on iPhone5

*2013-07-30, version 1.5*

It would be perfect for me if it would have three more functions:
- Display a third UTC seconds "wheel"
- Allow entry and display of GPS time in hexadecimal notation
- display current leap-seconds. That display could display number in effect when displaying historical time, or disappear when not displaying current time. 
With those changes it would be worth more than $0.99 to me.
