A shame it’s only in English
So many soap calculator out there are multilingual. kind of surprising this one isn’t
Wrong Data for Palm Kernal Flakes
The values for Palm Kernal Flakes are incorrectly entered. All of the values are shifted down one space starting with iodine. It looks like it has a 227 for lauric, which would be insane! Ruins all of the recipes that include this oil. Hopefully they will fix in an update soon!
NOT thesame as soap calc
I don't like it. It does not allow me to caculate Lye to water ratio.... hard to read too. I wish i did not made the purches.
I can’t find a list of recipes I saved
I just purchased the app, I love how it works and suggest the safer recipe however once I save recipe I can not go back unless I delete the data so I can add new one. You need to add a favorite list so we can save our own recipe and go back to it rather than screenshot each one. Thank you.
Soap calc pro
Love this App, quick and very simple to use, it's never let me down in years of cold process soap making.
Just terrible
I just got this and I can not recommend it. It only allows you to calculate water as % of oils (which isn’t a good idea to begin with) and other numbers it recommends are outright insane.
One of the things I do when looking at a soap calculator is I run simple, tried and true recipes I’ve used through it to see what happens. On a 2 pound recipe it recommended 100 oz of fragrance oil and 2 + pounds of water!
Tl;dr: use the soapcalc website or do your own math. This app is bad

App Support, Where Are You?
App Support link does not work. I have a question about adding fragrance oil. Otherwise, app does calculate fine, I just don’t see where I can add the fragrance oils.
Lye calc not accurate!
This app doesn't factor in the 90% purity of KOH. It will calculate less causing issues with dual lye soap recipes. Please fix this issue.
Don't waste your money
This doesn't have any options for essential oils and the calculations are way off.
Can't trust
It's hard to trust a calculator that tells me I need 422g of fragrance for 650g of oils!
Great program.. Needs some tweaks
I've been making soap for a couple of years now and use this calculator a lot. I really like it!
I think it needs some tweaks, though.
First, it needs to separate my recipe from the auto balanced one by using different colors, or better yet by putting the auto balanced recipe on a separate page. I was in a hurry this morning and mistakenly used the auto balanced lye amount instead of the recipe amount (I haven't made soap in a while). I might not have made that error if the auto balanced recipe was separated from the actual recipe.
Second, the auto balanced recipe should try to calculate using the same total amount of oils as is in the entered recipe. Auto balance is always low, so I have to adjust it up. It is an unnecessary PITA to try to adjust the recipe.

Possible future updates?
I purchased this program about a month ago and use it daily and find it very nice to work with. I think a couple user add ons would enhance the OS for better functionality, as there a few things that bugs me S follows;
- Being able to print the recipe as per the final page and not as a html code.
- being able to delete old recipes that don't work and able to edit a saved recipe; and
- having a total oils use in kg/g/ounes/lbs T the beginning to give you %'s etc
Failing that a good program....thanks

It's do my job
I really like it but please solve some ios9 bugs
Love it
I love this app. It helps me out a lot. There are a few other ingredients that I hope they will add to the app one day. *fingers crossed*
Good app when works!
I love this soap calc app more than any of the others I have but it constantly stops working! After I get the whole recipe in I can't calculate because it crashes! Constantly uninstalling and reinstalling!
Really nice, but not able to add Lemon juice
Really nice job, but when inputting my favorite recipe I can't input lemon juice, which is used to lower the Ph. Throws my calc off. Sure wish developer would add that and vinegar as options. Pretty pretty please....
Stopped Working
This program was working fine for the first three times I used it, now it will not even start up, very upset about this, what is going on, I want my money back if it can't be fixed!
Why has this app stopped working?
This app no longer works on my ipad. I've tried deleting and reinstalling, but it still only show's the front screen. Is this because there is a new paid version available?
App does NOT work
After spending money on the pro version of this app, I realize I wasted it. The app does not go past the title page and work. Do not buy this. There is no developer help. if you click on the link it goes to two-pages with blank wikis. So I'm not happy that I wasted my money.
Crashes often
This app is great when it works but crashes often.
