Almost perfect
This should easily be my favorite slide rule app, as this was the rule I used in electronics school and for years later. This app works great, except for one flaw - the top cursor rail protrudes down into the top scale. This simply should not be. The bottom rail is as it should be, not interfering at all. Other than this one irritating issue, the rule looks great, is easy to read and use. It’s almost perfect.

Excellent creative accurate APP !!
As an Electrical Engineering student before calculators these were a mandatory tool for most engineering courses.
Needs zoom
...so you don't have to keep scrolling left and right to see the whole slide rule.
Slide Rule
This is an excellent electronic slide rule. It is easy to use and has a reasonable number of scales. It is perfect for he novice or the collector. It is great if you are on the go. I would like more documentation. Bravo to the creator.
Almost perfect
I would have rated this app a 5 star except that the slide reverts to closed when you flip to the back side of the rule.
Really?
Had a hard time believing my eyes...make that my anal eyes. Woke my wife up searching for my ancient Dietzgen multiplex manual. Found it though and this app is guaranteed to keep me up all night. Great app though I'm worried there aren't enough of us old dudes left to give it it's well deserved appreciation.

Beautiful app
This is really a fantastic app. It works exactly like the real thing, and it is terrific to look at. It's a great app for a math or science teacher to show to his class. This app keeps a part of math history alive. I love it.
Great App!
It's not just for geeks anymore! The "Virtual Slide Rule" app has instructions so even people not familiar with how to use one
can learn - like me. Always wanted to know & now I can.

Virtual Incarnation of a great tool!
In high school and college my slide rule was an essential tool in Chemistry. Physics, and Math classes. Now I have this really cool reincarnation of a classic and it works great on the iPad. It also brings back all the great memories of those times back in school. And if you've never used a slide rule, the instructions make it straightforward to learn. And for those Millennials in the crowd, it's a unique app to have on your iPad. Kudos to Interrobang Group!
