Was very nice but not updated

When are you going to update this. It looks terrible on iPhone X and above.

Super!

Thank you for doing such a great job developing this app! The abacus is very clear and easy to use! Love it!

Nice, but buggy for now.

Beautiful app and the best looking of the abacus' [n.b. Actually not European, but Suan Pan and Soroban toggles; gives options for both]. However, in the current distribution it freezes up and must be reinstalled. Look forward to a functioning app (one time install) after I switch from iPhone 5 to 6/+ and possible further updates.

Good luck guys!

Just reread the App Store notes: last updated in 2011, so consider. (Writing 2014-12-31)

Save your money

The product stops working after install. It does not respond to touch screen rendering it useless. If reinstalled it will function for a short time. Save your money, get something else.

Lovely to work, and subtle

It is lovely to work with and has nice little touches. For example, you can run your hand laterally and beads will turn/spin on their rods, and make just the sound you would expect. Very nicely done. (I do wish that I could move the bar after calculation starts, instead of it locking down. The only way to release and move it is to switch it off and back on again.)
