### 5/5 — Great app  used it for over a decade

*2023-02-28*

No gimmicks just works

**Developer response:** Appreciate the feedback. May 29th, 2009 is when Volume Calculator was released on the App Store. Less than 2 months after the release of Area Calculator. Thank you for helping to celebrate 14 years together!

### 3/5 — Needs more shapes

*2020-11-10, version 2.8*

It doesn’t contain oblique rectangular prisms

**Developer response:** Thank you for the suggestion. It'll be added to the list of features to possibly implement in the future.

### 5/5 — Very good app

### 1/5 — Ridiculous no iOS 6 support

*2012-09-24, version 1.5*

Hello!  There are emulators with the SDK.  You don't need any hardware except for a Mac to do the develoment.   And since you already built the app if assume you have a Mac somewhere.  Seriously. Fix it.

### 5/5 — Awesome if taking geometry
