## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Unclear about functionality

*2015-10-13*

I bought this app in hopes that it would listen, which it does not.. All it does is repeat what you enter and the answer alloud...

### 1/5 — very helpful tool

*2012-08-25*

I was looking for a way to help my son with his problems understanding the basics of math. I have no results yet, but he likes using addition and subtraction because of the simple and good to see buttons and mostly because of the voice feedback. best of all, I could record my voice for the speech. that is a fantastic feature.

our setup is the simple layout for kids with speech, low contrast and standard output. this works great.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2020-01-28*

I had hoped it would do speech recognition but it is no better than the built in  App provided by Apple.

### 3/5 — Ok

*2011-04-04, version 1.0*

It's a bit cool but it should be free if I could go back in time I would not buy it!!!

### 5/5 — Great calc. Speaks fast

*2016-04-20*

Finally a Talking Calculator that speaks fast. Happy!

### 5/5 — Very nicely done!

*2016-03-25*

I have a math-obsessed autistic son. I was going to buy him a real/physical talking calculator as a gift, but this app is much less expensive and does more! Now it's his favorite "toy." He loves typing in equations and telling me the answers. And he is thrilled by hearing super-long numbers correctly read aloud when he taps on them. We will have fun recording our own voices, for sure. Support for this app is also excellent. I had a tiny issue, so contacted the creator. He updated the app immediately!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2015-07-22*

Love this calculator. I have very low vision  and use Voiceover most but not all of the time. This calc works with Voiceover on or off and its easy to see with invert colors on or off.

### 5/5 — Fab app

*2013-03-23*

I'm visually impaired and struggle with conventional calculators. 
This app speaks clearly. And I can easily see  the bright coloured keys

### 5/5 — The best calc ever

*2012-12-22*

I had so much fun with this app it makes math awesome the only thing u could possibly do better is allow the action button to be recorder and labeled if u are not using VO.

### 5/5 — Great Job

*2011-05-14*

This worked great with my son!

### 5/5 — Hey, really works

*2011-04-14*

I'm the sort of person that really does benefit from a calculator.

This calculator serves that purpose while being accessible to me as a totally blind user.

Now, who's going to design a truly reliable, real time color identifier or reliable, real time optical character recognition (OCR) app, so blind people can scan and read documents, mail, and such.

But, I digress.

This is great.  Thanks.

### 5/5 — Great teaching tool!

*2011-04-06*

Working with non- verbal students with autism? This is a must! I love the voice recording feature and it is simple to use! The best talking calculator that I have found! Only suggestion is to make an option to be a simple button calculator and not scientific so there are less buttons! 
Thanks so much!!!

### 5/5 — Doblermusic

*2011-03-24*

Works well! Stable and easy for a blind user to operate. Great job! 
Thanks
